I wanna add a resevoir to my system and I just came across this and thought perfect!

Anyways with this I would hafta hook my system up Pump > Block > Rad > Resevoir > Pump.

Right now I have it Pump > Rad > Block > Pump

I have an eheim 1048, Black Ice Rad, and 3/8" silicon tubing
Going to the above method using the resevoir would I really notice any temp change at all? I usually run around 12 to 14C above ambient at fullload running around 1.9 to 1.95 volts.

Also is the Black Ice Extreme, same as the black ice, in terms of height, and length? Width is ok I have room that way, but my blackice fits like a dream under my 3.5 floppy cage in my Lian Li PC65.

Thanks for any help.

The Bix is same width and length as the Black Ice but the Bix is 18 mm thicker. total 43 mm, right at 1 1/2 inches thick
Also the Bix has 1/2 inch fittings, If you use good hose 3/8 hose will strech over the fittings.
