Did you get the one with 1/2" inlet to 2 3/8" outlets
Looks very nice,:cool: but the price!!! :eek:

I like the material, and I even like the pattern, the dual channel. But I dont like the fact that there is no center 1/2" barb that flows to a corner 1/2" barb. I see the 2 3/8" outlets, but thats not as good. I also dont like the right angle channels inside the block cause this reduces GPH, and I would never consider a waterblock that doesnt use the 4 hole mounting system.
I would like to see other waterblocks using this material though. I wonder if the thermal conductivity is that much better. Maybe the Maze3 will be made out of it :)

Hey Player, the waterblock does mount with the mobo mounts, It uses the lexan clamp, you saw my pics and how the block was mounted!:D

Oh yes...I see. I looked on becoolings website and saw the socket bridge, and not the lexan plate, so I thought that was how it was attatched. Didnt see the mounting in your pics...until i zoomed in...it is clear after all ;)
