Seeing at least a 4C gain here (at the CPU diode) with my custom block over a "Swiftech" on a hot CPU (AthlonXP @ 1925MHz/2.15v), using the same pump/radiator for both.
See I don't see 4DegC on a hot CPU as a big difference in the H20 genre. I just see it as fine tuning. I know it's a hell of a feat sqeezing 4DegC over the leading manufacturers blocks, I'm not mocking your achievments. I just don't think H20 has any leaps and bounds left to make.though it's still the most all round effective solution there is IMO.

I think more could be gained just from using 5/8 barbs with 12mm inner diametre tubing, to gain the fullest from the flow we have. matching block~channels to bore diametres of tube ect.

BigBen, can you explain flow rate and flow speed?, I think I'd rather have as much 'mass' of water moving through as quickly as possible .
