It's time for a CPU block replacement!
This is my current build:
I've rebuilt this loop far too many times, and as a result I've managed to start some hairline cracks around the top fitting of the CPU block. 100% user error.
Contenders:
Same EK Nickel/Acrylic
EK Nickel Elite
EK Nickel Standard
Heatkiller IV Pro Acrylic
Heatkiller IV Pro Nickel
Any other suggestions?
I don't plan on changing the loop now that's it's basically running fine so the acrylic durability is less of an issue.
That said - I do like the thought of a solid metal top for peace of mind. The aesthetics wouldn't be as nice but maybe that's fine.
Has anyone had any good/bad experience with the heakiller blocks? They look like they're high quality.
