RBX Nozzle
 

heya guys, whats your opinions on which nozzle is the best? (Between Nozzle #4 which is most restrictive and Nozzle #5 which is the directional spray)

If nozzle #4 is the one with the long thin line through the centre of the block then that (according AngryAlpaca) is the best.

i believe that the answer will depend on the pump etc. as there is no one optimum...

Yeh generaly the more flow the pump has the small the nozzle should be.

So what would you recommend for using MCP600 (higher pressure, lower flow)? I'm currently using the standard nozzle. Where would I get another in the UK? Would I just have to get it straight from DD?

may be others too but i couldn't spot it on their sites...

You should experiment. the pack comes with all the nozzles so just try them and see which one works the best.

I would think one that is slightly narrower than standard would work best but theres so many factors involved i couldent tell you exactly which would be best.

yea, im using a MCP600 like Meethoss. Im guessing #4 which has the thin slit in middle but havent read much about #5. Think a japanese site did a review and the #5 spray beat the #4 by a little bit

Pack? I didn't get a pack, I just got the block and the screw fittings. I assume there's a nozzle inside it but I haven't opened it to see what I have as I'm pretty new at water cooling.

DD sells the pack of nozzles (#1-#5 plus a blank one) for $6.50. You can check it out at this link to their accessories section http://www.dangerden.com/mall/Misc_H.../rbx_acces.asp

also on a side note anyone know where i can buy a Black Ice Extreme shroud? :p

like this?

With any pump stronger than a 1250 I'd bet on the #4, provided there are no other blocks in the loop. If you've got 1 or more other blocks in the loop it'll take a extremly powerfull pump (MD-20rlzt?) for the #4 slit to be of much advantage. With a 1250 or L30 I'd say you may as well stick with the #1, even if you have no other blocks in system.

so would a MCP600 be sufficient for a #4 nozzle? So far only going to have cpu block but might add a gpu one later

I'm gonna have a NB and GPU block in mine, so I take it I should leave it as it is?

Soz i assumed you allredy had the pack

If you using multiple blocks i would leave it as it is. :)

Thanks mate :)

GAH!!!!!!!!! i tried puttin in the dual bay reservoir i got from Danger Den, the mounting holes doesnt align with the removable bay rack on the Antec P160 :( Gonna refund it and get a single bay one from Frozen CPU maybe

Ooh, I got an Antec P160 - very nice case! But I had a similar problem with my CoolerMaster Aerogate 2 cos it only has two small holes for mounting and the thing is 1/3 the depth of a CD ROM drive.

If you're gonna change your res then go for the cylindrical Danger Den res. It's got a neat little cap for filling and a block inside it to stop bubbles going in to the loop if you have a high power pump. Very handy :)

going with the #5 spray since im not sure the MCP600 can handle the #4 with a zchipset/gpu block in loop.
