Yeah I read it. :shrug: 2% is 2% to much but my main point was no place to stick that beast inside a "normal" case.

I still don't understand why people bother with flow switches. All you have to do is setup a thermal switch and stick it under the water block somewhere, anywhere will work on the block, deson't HAVE to be next to the die. If the block gets over a set limit it shuts off the entire system. No flow restritction, no size restriction, and it can be worked into other monitoring devices...
