Great review! Nice performance, too. :)

I also think that putting your MB in a separate loop is overkill. But some prefer it.
What I can say for sure is that it's not necessary to have your MB in a separate loop. You can do it and it...

Thanks for the link. Missed that before.
45 dollars, huh? That is quite steep. But if the performance is good, the mounting options might make it worth it.

Wow, new blocks are rolling in fast for this GPU!

I like the looks of that. :)

I'm guessing it's pretty expensive, though?

Very nice! Love the looks of this block.

Wow. Well done on improving the best waterblock out there!

Some very nice looking blocks here. Can't wait to see them in some system builds.

The ones by MIPS are the best looking, IMO. Aqua Computer also make a nice RAM cooler: Link.

As for how the water flows through/amount of cooling area: Who cares? It's not like RAM really needs...

I'm pretty much with scamps on this one. You don't really need high flowrates, particularly if you have more than adequate radiaton area in your setup.

I think you have to answer part of the...

No, I had no problems with the Yellowstone at all.
Have you checked the base with a razor or something similar, to see if it's flat? I got a block with a bent (concave) base once, so I guess it can...

I never tested the HK 3.0 to the basically identical HK 3.0 LT, but Bundymania did. In his test, I think there was a 0.1° difference between the two and I am absolutely certain that this was a random...

Well, unless the internals of that Copper Supreme were changed vs. the normal one, there's no way it could be that much better.

But I call marketing bull:banana::banana::banana::banana: anyway. I...

Agreed. I think it's very important to keep the distinction between marketing and testing in mind.
There's also a big difference in perception between a consumer and a tester. As a consumer, it's...

Just one thing I want to clarify here:



I do reviews/tests, not marketing.

I don't try to prove or disprove anything. I try to accurately measure things.

Performance: "Clear advantage" is meant literally. It is clearly measurable that there is an advantage. I'm observing this, not passing judgement. You see a lot of people choosing one waterblock over...

Here are the old results and new results side by side, for anyone wanting to compare:

Brilliant. I really like the new style. :up:

I have an update on the subject of Nanofluid. I got a new sample (new formula) of the fluid for testing.
I decided to do a very down-to-earth practical test of the fluid this time. I used it in my...

Oh, yes, forgot about the BP one. Gosh, we're sure spoilt for choice these days, huh? ^^

Watercool don't have a single PCB GTX 295 block. I think they planned to make one, but I don't know what...

Nope. :D


Looks awesome, though.

For true uber-ness, also consider the EK block together with the fully watercooled backplate. :D

It's as over-the-top as it gets. The EK block without that backplate is also definitely worth...

From HWmonitor, which reads the same info as eleet.

Nope, only VREG.

Yep, Watercool Heatkiller (CU and LT versions) are currentyl top-of-the-heap. :)
