Which Waterblock

[need bb]

Well I am all ready to build my new Q6600 rig, but I can't decide on the waterblock. I am leaning towards the Swiftech Apogee GT as it is $20 cheaper than the GTX and D-Tek Fusion and comes with the backplate. Should I go with the Apogee GT or spend the extra $$ to get the GTX or Fusion?

Thanks

depends if its worth 2-3C to you. and a little more if you bow the GTX/fuzion

and a little less if you bow the GT ;-)

My experience has been that with a moderately overvolted X3220 (basically a Q6600) the GT bowed is within 1-2 degrees of either the GTX or the FuZion. I did my testing a while back though, so I'm not 100% sure what my test bed was exactly... Also I did not have the new backplate from Swiftech, so I can only imagine my results with the Swiftech blocks would have been better had I had one.
