Have fun with that... To me.. one of the worst idea's besides Phobya's Ghost fittings..

at lease that's what I thought about them...

Agreed, barbs+clamps can't be beaten, they are safe and easy to use but they are sooooo ugly ._.

That is the truth.. But, i've found, after using every brand, only bp can hold a water block... Meaning...


rad up top.. 1/2 tubing to cpu block... the block dangling from the barb it self... only bp can keep the tube in place without it slipping off.. How I know... the $200 paperweight I have sitting here....

Well I got the i5 for $189 and with the purchase of the cpu the mobo was $84. I had a budget of $350 and figure the i5 will be just fine for the gaming I do.
