D-Tek MP-05 waterblock

It looks a lot different than a storm, it actually looks like the design is very similar to a Cuplex XT or Cuplex PRO. You notice the storm has the cups that exactly match up to the jest to give it a true impingement design. This block however has a very dense pin matrix very similar to that of the AC blocks. It then simply uses a TDX-esque accelerator nozzle to try to immitate an impingement design.

This could be a very nice performing block, especially at the attractive 55$ price point.
 
Looks to me like Erasmus said, with a Storm assembly designm TDX style impingment, and Cuplex or possibly NexXxos XP style fins, along with a TDX style choose-your-accelerator nozzle option, but using the Storm assembly method. If I had to guess right now, I'd say a degree worse than the Storm at lower flow rates, and very close at higher flow rates (the nozzles look to be pretty restrictive, but could work well with a lot of flow).
 
Not too bad of results! Wonder how the different middle plates will help with lower flow configurations.
 
Email Lee and ask him, he's a very helpful person and very friendly................. :cool:
 
What impresses me the most is the depth of the review, systemcooling is probably the best active waterblock review site around.
