These two waterblocks are pretty much the only (local) option for me right now due to limited stock in the only two good online watercooling retailers that i can find in Australia. I can get an EK block for between $108 to $130 depending on whether it is acetal/plexi/copper/nickel and i can get the XSPC Razor block for $90
The XSPC Razor 7970 doesn't look that crash hot aesthetically but the real thing i want to know is if it will perform well enough? The only review i can find for it is the comparison of six 7970 waterblocks by Bundymania. Here it performs the worst out off all the blocks temperature wise (~5 degree difference between it and 3 others)
If anyone has had experience with this waterblock i would love to hear from them.
I was 100% happy to buy an EK block but gammods.com.au are out of stock and their new stock only consists of the new EK CSQ range (the blocks with all the circles...). I dont like these at all and the fact they dont have a inlet/outlet on both sides completely screws up my plan of how im going to drain my loop.

Should i save money and get a XSPC Razor at the cost of losing performance, Spend $40 more on an EK block or find somewhere that has a Heatkiller, AquaGratix, or Koolance block in stock and can ship to Australia?
