    Is vertically the proven way to have it for best performance?
    Glad you asked that.

    With my Apogee GT the answer was yes.

    With the EK Supreme my results say no. Horizontal is best.

    Not saying my results are 100%, but that's just what I found.

    Garrett :

    I've send Eddy pics of the block on my DQ6, so he can see how much clearance there's needed.
    Anyway, he's working on it and all we can do is wait.

    I have no tested indefinitely, as there is already a block mounted on my CPU but clearance even on the DFI P35 board seems close and that's the cleanest CPU socket area on the market (arguably).

    If it ain't watercooled, I don't wanna know.
