I'm getting double thoughts of the reviews I've been reading about the Innovatek G-Flow CPU water blocks, and I already had 1 that I haven't used yet. Review are mostly saying that they are having flow problems and/or CPU-to-Block contact problems.

So I'm swapping out, and will go pretty much for an all copper setup (except I guess for the connectors/barbs).

For any one who is in Germany:

What is the most known, and most used, and less problematic, copper made CPU block readily available in Germany ?

Aqua Computer cuplex EVO xt
Aqua Computer cuplex PRO
Alphacool Nexxxos HP Pro 775

or which ?

Here is the link to the different models and makes available to me:

The only place I mostly do my shopping is at Caseking.de (http://www.caseking.de)

Any good suggestions ?
 
Any suggestion would be really great... it doesn't really have to be from some dude in Germany though.

If you can see from the link above for my available choices, please let me know of which would be good.
 
The Nexxos XP is supposed to be an excellent cpu waterblock, performing almost as well as the storm, according to Procooling.
 
The NexXxos will be one of the better performers, for rather small amounts of money, high quality, etc etc. It's one badass block.
 
The alphacool blocks and the AquaComputer Cuplex (not EVO) blocks are almost exactly the same design. The HP PRO from alphacool is almost the same as the Cuplex PRO from AC. The XP PRO from alphacool is almost the same as the Cuplex XT from AC. They will all perform about the same, the only difference being some people like the looks of the AC stuff better. If all you are after is performance, go for the alphacool blocks.
 
I know the looks can be deceiving but I'm staying with the performance...

Alphacool it is !

I'm getting this one:
Alphacool NexXxos XP Bold Sockel 775

I'm not really good with my german but I hope that middle part of the 3 layers of the block means it is nickel-plated copper, and not aluminum...

Top layer is plexi glass, middle layer I really don't know but I'm hoping it's at least a nickel-plated copper and not aluminum, and the bottom most layer is (or should be) obviously copper.

Any thoughts ?
