jst a couple of questions - you must get pretty sick of them!!

firstly though, that is the sexiest waterblock i have ever seen, but then again, there is nothing in your computer that has been done half-hearted.

Is is ok for the water to just flow in and out, providing that the block has some sort of fins/pins?

Are pins better than fins? I will be having two exits, one going to my gpu, and one to my northbridge ( although i am kinda worried because my motherboard sits flat, so my gpu loop woll be a lot higher than my northbridge loop, but i guess i could just add more tube to the northbridge loop)

How about if i was to just get a block of copper, and drill lots of holes in it, effectively making a star shaped things all over the show. trying to remember back to my thermofluids papers, to create turbulence, a release edge of around 17 degrees is requied, although i think that would have for air. having it this shape should make the water nice and trubulent. maybe? i dont really know, so please correct me!! would have the int he middle, and two exits at each end.

the reason i am being so difficult is because i am from New Zealand, we done as many heatsinks as you guys do, so I cant fins one which has pins

Thanks
