    NP on the answer buddy!

    To my knowledge, the mobo's are the same - the ROG cooling.

    Just for the record, the SB is almost a freebie with a decent sink. I opted not to water cool mine, due to it adding more resistance in my loop. I only intend on running a one loop system.

    Check out the SB heat sink on page 7 of this thread to see if that might keep you happy?

    Putting MOSFET blocks in your loop is also restrictive. I would have been more inclined to include them into the loop, before I would the SB.

    I hope my Thermalight sinks will be more than enouigh to keep them happy, and successfully relieved my loop of their cooling responsibility. (Pic's on page 8 of this thread)

    If I were to do it over, I would get the non SE version I think, and set it up the exact same way I have now.

    My build thread: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=160606

    I am a CPU, GPU, and NB water cooling fan, if you are a 1 loop guy like me.
