trying to decide what hose to use. Here are my choices..

one is a name brand, gotten on line, another is one from a local hardware store, and 1/3 the price.

The one on the left of the picture, kinda cloudy, a lot thicker, and Slighty more soft and bendable.

The one on the right, very clear, thinner, and pretty flexible.

Which one would you choose and why?
 
Thicker, won't kink as easy and you're also running a external box, so less chance of damage. Also tighter bends................the color won't matter much after awhile............... :eek:
 
Ah Bio, why you always got to pop my balloon.. :)

Kinks really aren't and issue, i have sort of test run both hoses.. never come close to having a kinking issue.
I see what youe saying about the damage factor though, due to the external box.

After putting the hoses in the PC, the thinner looks so much better, the thicker hose just FILLS up the PC, it looks so conjested... the thinner hose looked better.....
