problem with that waterblock is its designed with flow rates in mind, so its not restrictive, adding other blocks to the loop, or a restrictive rad really hurts its performance. Mine is ok, although i have to use a Maze2-1 with my A64 setup due to my ghetto mounting system not having long enough screws for the atlantis

I might try my atlantis with a 5000lph pump....instead of a 1200lph pump
