Anfi vs Mips vs Ek

[Eddie3dfx]

I was googling and I found some interesting info on chipset comparisons.

I guess Eddy wins out in being the least restrictive.

It's worth going through the site and seeing the pron.

I have the exact same one for the 780i sb. It's a shame mips blocks are incompatible with bitspower barbs. Yes, they are simply beautiful.

Can we get a comparisn vs EK, Mips, AF and Koolance?

Chipset blocks are tough to test, the only thing you can really test is pressure drop and flow restriction. Thermals are a complete waste of time.

I have a bunch of pressure drop numbers on some EK blocks and the BP A790NS, I've just never released them for some reason.

Nice find though!

Just get the one that looks best. They are for show anyways...

uhh...no.

my rule for NB blocks is get the lowest restriction one, because the NB is only putting out 20-40watts of heat it doesnt need a pin matrix or any of the fancy cpu stuff

Swiftech MCW30 FTW

May not be as pretty but it has the lowest restriction of any northbridge block I have seen tests for.

+1

All 3 look far better than the mcw30.
On the other hand, I really like swiftech's new block.

I would prefer EK anyway.
