    Default Wanted - 4 HDD blocks

    I need 4 HDD blocks. I need ones with the acrylic top. If you have some or know where I can get them for a good price please let me know.

    IMHO don't bother using WC with your HDDs. They don't get hot enough to warrant it and will ultimately just act as heatsinks for your hot CPU and VGA lol. I used to have my HDD in a waterblock. Come to find out it ran hotter in the block than it did just sitting, even without a fan on it.

    After over a month I just got an email from Bitspower with my final list. 2 HDD blocks and a 460 block! So I only need 2 more now.

    So, if you HAVE to, perhaps putting them in the loop before your uber-hot stuff?
    Two years. They were great. Let's make the next ones even better!

    Tri.fecta

    No matter their position the loop will pretty much equalize in temp after a while anyways. Either that or do a 2nd loop just for the HDDs, that'll keep them cool as well without any extra heat from the other components.


    I also got an email from Bitspower today. Shame I ordered everything I needed myself a week ago

    Thats what I'm thinking about. Gotta use up these parts no matter how "overkill" it may seem. EK sent me almost $500 in parts so I will do my best to use them all.

    I'd put all those parts on my CPU loop and go ask for more for the GPU.

    Don't mind me, I'll show myself the door.
