    Chilled Blocks!

    What are the best performing blocks for the CPU, GPU, and the chipset? My chiller will be up and running shortly and I would like to know which ones are the best. I know plastic barbs are a no-no and plexi tops are as well. I was thinking of using all silverprop blocks. Has anyone tried these on a chiller?

    Totally agreed, not worth the trouble and I saw no difference in clocking.

    I too have a white water WB with a copper top and brass barbs. I think I remember reading a post where someone said the best way to insulate one is to incase it in spray foam, but I'm not sure. Is anyone else using a white water WB for -40/-50C chiller that can tell me, or better show me with a picture, the best way to insulate it?
