Are there any i7 waterblocks that should be coming soon? I'm not in love with the way the GTZ looks. So what is on the way, and will it be out in the next month or so?
 
Here's the choices from Performance:http://www.performance-pcs.com/cata...th=199&zenid=cb0206b6e5f7a1017d1c6361806acd90

I just use my old GTX and it's working fine.
Unfortunately, they don't make the GTX anymore, but Xoxide and svc.com still have some in stock.

svc has the lowest price. I bought another one yesterday because I've got a little corrosion on the delrin top inside. I like the look of the GTX and it works very well for me.
My temperature is about 48C at load.

You need to buy the Ci7 hold down plate for the GTZ or GTX to be compatible with the S1366 MB.
 
Aqua's Cuplex DI and HD are available from Sidewider. I am using the the DI on my I7 and I am very pleased with my results.
 
The recent Koolance 350 is actually good.

EK-supreme is good for CPU-only loops (and a high-pressure pump).

Dtek fuzion v2 is good for higher flow-rate. It doesn't require any real modding or fuss to get it right.

Dtek fuzion v1 with 4.5mm nozzle and EK O-ring for bowed base supposedly is good on the i7.

Apogee GTZ is also good. It also "just works."


In fact... that may even be my order of preference. The EK-supreme may be the best performer with a high pressure pump, but I wouldn't be surprised if the koolance 350 edges it out in tests either.
 
The Koolance 350 is actually the best product they have ever produced, especially at the price point.
The Supreme is receiving good marks as well and The Aqua DI is close as well.
It always comes down to what you want, top performance, looks or a combination of both.
