    Interesting sample, I look forward to the results!

    I think that the shape of the hold down makes it look like it should be in an alien movie

    Interesting, i'll be looking forward to seeing how it performs. I assume thats two intakes / two outlets? Which is which? Like are they perpendicular, diagonal, etc...
    Why is it drug addicts and computer afficionados are both called users?

    Can't see the complete baseplate, but it looks like the center will receive the least flow when all 4 inlet/outlets are connected. Might work well on a dual die CPU though.

    I guess we'll have to wait and see!

    If the flow is crossed, would it not interfere?

    It depends on how the internals are, I would think.

    I think the block would perform better if there were an inlet in the center, and all four of those barbs were outlets. A tubing mess for sure, but I'd like to see how a block like that could perform.

    If there are two inlets and two outlets, how do you ensure there is good flow through the center of the block? It doesn't really matter how you configure the inlets and outlets... there is always an outlet adjacent to an inlet!

    Looking at the copper block pattern, it looks like old-school Apogee except square posts instead of diamond.

    I bet that this flows well but is not as effective at cooling.

    At any rate, I'm interested in seeing the results.

    For comparative purposes, it'd be best if we could secure one of these, or if the reviewer could get a couple of other well known blocks, and compare it vs them, no?

    Considering how hot current gen quad cores get, you could...erm...run two loops that feed into here? (joking)

    That's interesting. Will there also be a shared reservoir somewhere in the loop?

    You are not right, the developer of the given water-block lives in Nizhni Novgorod, as a whole it draws drawings and makes to them our amendments
