Hi. I am buying a Thermaltake bigwater 745
Does anyone know of a good VGA water block that is compatable with its 3/8" tubing?.
 
Dangerden Maze 4. They go for about 40 bucks.

Instead of buying the Bigwater 745, for the $170 + shipping, you can get some other components. A Dtek Whitewater, Hydor L30, dual heatercore, shroud, and fan, some 3/8 tubing, and that will cost about the same but much more powerful.
 
That's a very robust setup but if the heatercore is too deep to deal with in your particular case you could opt for the Black Ice Pro II instead. You'll get less cooling power overall but it still should be plenty for your rig if all you're cooling is the CPU and one GPU. The cost would be close to the same.
 
The bigwater 745 doesn't seem too bad for a kit. It's probably easier to beginners and they seemed to have fixed several of the problems with the original bigwater kits.

But I don't like how the radiator becomes such a large obstruction when it's standing like that. If it slid off something high, I would imagine it would pull the tubing out and cause a massive instant leak.
