It is sure enough one of the finest looking blocks I've seen.
It was posted about once before here, and if I recall right it performs better than a Maze 4 but not as well as a White Water or Cascade. It shows a real attention to detail by the maker that goes far beyond what is most often seen. You might also be interested in a man's work who goes by the nick of Bladerunner, he's another maker of art works. His can be seen at a site called: www.zerofanzone.com |

Hi to all.
Forgive my English, it is very bad and I only have the help of a translating program, maybe you don´t understand mi well. It is a pain not to be able to understand and to express me well. Thank you for your words, I am glad you to like waterblock. I have not still made any test. I am writing an article where I explain their production detailedly, the reasons of making it and results of the tests, but I can advance that although the performance won't be bad, it has not been my intention to get the best possible. I have simply wanted to carry out what my mind has created. It has been a challenge to build it with limited free time and tools(cheap column drill) and a satisfaction to get it in spite of the difficulties. Some will think that it is an unnecessary work but I enjoy with it. For me it is more important a good construction inside my possibilities. To look for the maximum performance in the design of the block with the step of the years every time interests me less. |

What an honor to have you post here! Your block is perhaps one of the most beautiful I have seen. I hope it does well in testing. Even if it does not, I wish you the best on selling it if that is your intention. Many people would love to have a work of art in their case.

For the White Water CPU block go to: www.dtekcustoms.com
For the Cascade you have to contact Cathar directly. There is a huge thread here about the Cascade you can find by just searching for Cathar or Cascade. |

This block have parts on Duraluminiun 7075-T6, the shining is very similar, it´s easier of working and the weighs is very inferior and very resistant. The next block is possible that makes it on this aluminum as this but with different design of course. |
