Roundup Water-Block ( EK, D-Tek, ApogeeGT, XWB-01) who is better ? (56k Warning!)

[NaeKuh]

now I am anxious to set up my EK with my RD-30

Remember phelan when playing with that pump voltage, it can take about 3-5 min to see a effect.

effects in temps of CPU or the heat dump from the pump?

Yeah I am familiar with the pump (been running one for over a year now). I just picked up a second one :P.

ZoLKoRn, which jet plate did you use for Supreme ?

Yes, i used it

Why ? i see some thread here is have somebody saying it not different between have jet-plate and not jet-plate

actually it is.

The jets improve temps by accelerating water over the thin base plate.

without the jets, the water would hit the middle plane and you'd probably have crap temps on the outer edges.

Also im starting to think me putting an accelerator at the inlet is a nono. The water path is getting focused so much in the center, my outter cores arent improving even after remounts.

I have one thing left to do, and thats lap the base jet and try to smooth out the water path. But i have one bad thing about EK.

And thats the UGLY Finish, and Work job on the jets. But they are great performing blocks:

UGLY!!

Yes i think that too for UGLY of finish on jet-plate but other part is very good finish

However... if we need only performance on working, Why we'll care for beauty or ugly right ? because we don't show it to anyone

btw. i'll try test it again on have jet-plate and without

I said which one, there are many different ones . Was it the one on NaeKuh' pics?

Different ones?

As of when? To my knowledge Eddie only has 1 which comes with the block.

Care to link the others? i might end up buying them myself.

[zbogorgon]

here is a selection of them, eddy is working on jet plates kit, available for purchase separately, they should be available a long time ago, I have tested all of them before Supreme was released, i'll talk to Eddy about that.



In my tests, the difference between #2 (comes with the block) and #3/7 is almost 2°C, it's noticable more restrictive though.

p.s. ZoLKoRn it you wanted to test then, I am sure Eddy will send them to you, just contact him.
