Do you slightly more experienced folks think this is a good looking block for $40, or if I could get possibly better performance with something else for a comparable price?
I'm not looking for super turbocharged amazing cooling, but I want something that can do better than the lame common blocks on the market (like swiftech, koolance, etc).
The double outlet is important for my design, so if you have a different block to recommend, it would have to fall in that category. I'll be driving the system with an Eheim 1250 and there will be an 8mm tubed innovatek chipset/GF4 block on each of the CPU block's outputs, which will then reconverge and go back up to 1/2" tubing with a custom wye. Big 2x120mm fan heatercore to exchange heat.
