I'm not that fond of pondmaster. At least not for inline use. Had one running for about a year inline and it almost self destructed. Started getting loud and flow started to drop, so I had to find a replacement, but before I did I found a puddle of water. It started to leak. I guess putting ~100W of power encased in plastic really isn't the best idea. And at ~100W I wouldn't even think of using it submerged. (more heat from the pump than the processor your trying to cool)

Just my personal exp.

The thing I find wondering the most is which of the CPU blocks I intend to order will be better in this system.
Well I think Cathar's block, and here's why. If you are going to have a pump with LOTS of pressure available for use, MD-30RZ for example, Cathar's block is crying for lots of pressure to force high flow. And that's my $.02 worth...
