DangerDen also indicates that the Maze5 will work on the R600.

MCW60 works as well.

aluminum waterblock??? :stick:

aluminum = bad idea

Maze 4 works as well, thread in WC section (where this thread should be, too).

Dont see this block selling well, aluminum is a no-no for PC watercooling.

Now if only the r600 wasnt such a lousy performer

Seems to do ok once you overclock it?

That's damn repulsive! Which block did produce that... that... excrement?

Does it really matter which block? Aluminum mixing with copper is just a big no no. Either way it will produce the same results.

Here is full story of these tragedy :rofl:

well thats a swift kick in the balls right there, if you ask me:p:

The block should be the poster child of "why companies should never use ALU at all in any part of their block".

Start the campaign now.
