    Great pics btw, I'm anxious to see your final setup.
    As am I

    Will the performance difference be huge?

    BTW, been hiding away following Extreme Systems exploits for a few years now, you guys are great!
    Thats an awesome setup. I like how he manages to keep the Red Heatsink, which was something I was kinda sad about losing. Someone should recommend some 90's on it though as it takes up quite a few slots.

    Cooling wise though, couldn't imagine it doing all that well (although water is some awesome stuff), at least in the water scene. The MCW30 is a flat piece of copper inside of the block.

    So far the Zalman waterblocks have been the best setup... aside from the mcw60's of course

    If you're asking if the red ramsink can be kept when using the MCW60's the answer is no and yes. Yes if you use a copper standoff, but that's ill advised.
