replacing the Striker II Extreme Fusion NB waterblock

[Locksley]

I am going the same way; but I wonder:

1. Does the EK-NB S-Max fit the old fusion slot so you still can keep the heat tube system and the cooling fins?

2. Also read in an other thread that it's glued on but a bit of heat (hair dryer) will make it come off with a bit of help.

3. Any point to use A.silver ceramic on the rest of the heat pipe system or should one stick with the original?

Cheers and good luck!
