You did notice the 1/4" preangled outlets right?

Cuz two 1/4" barbs does not equal one 1/2" barb (if you ran two 80mms in parallel).

yeah the 1/4" is slightly annoying, but at the same time, I think they'd be very handy for mounting in a normal case, think of two at the front of a Lian Li

My thought would be to mod that thing right out of the box and go to at least 3/8.

Yea I noticed the 1/4" barbs, which could be a good thing depending on what your gonna do with it.
I was thinking of making a Desktop based watercooling rig rather than a tower based with one of these babies, and i could always get hold of some 1/4" tygon for the job and use them on 3/8" waterblocks as they tend to be smaller.
Note with such a small radiator overclocking is not an option, but slap a 80mm Papst 12db fan and just think how quiet it's gonna be, perfect for my new music studio rig
