BTW... the reason for my interest, is I am looking to upgrade from my WhiteWater block. It seems to be showing its age.
I firmly believe the "what" that you are trying to cool... is the primary factor in choosing what you decide to use to cool it.
Back when I had my XP2500+ running at 2.6ghz... the LRWW was the obvious choice. Now, I have a processor with an IHS, and TWO cores that are both larger than the XP2500 I used to have.
My current 1/2" ID loop consists of:
LRWW
2x BIX 120's (both with fans in push/pull)
maze4 gpu block
dual bayres
Laing D4 Pump
Current setup:
X2 4400+ @ 2.7ghz - 1.65vcore
Load temp as reported by Everest Home - 44c
Load achieved by running dual Prime95 + SuperPi 32m sumultaniously.
ie - my main concern for following this thread... is choosing which block to upgrade to.
to storm... or not to storm. ... that is the question.
