There not a bad block, probably with-in a few C of a Fuzion...I think they have started making after-market mid-plates for them, so you can dial up or down the restrictiveness of the block to suit your needs...A CPU only loop can more afford a restrictive plate for better CPU cooling, where a multi block loop would be better off with a less restrictive mid-plate....I would use a decent pump like the D-5 vario with one for best results...

It probably wouldn't do to well with that T-Take pump, if thats what you are going to use...With one of those pumps I would get a Fuzion for sure, and not use any quad insert or jets in it, they would make it to restrictive for a pump like that...

Ive got the EK Supreme and it is a very nice block..also looks the Biz..But you do need a powerful pump for it as it is very restrictive..even then i still get decent temps on my quad at 3.6ghz 1.344v loaded with my DB1 pump (not the bets pump for a block like this ) load at 50,46,46,50. Heres some pics of the block for you man

Hey ira where can i get these modded plates from??..could i get a couple of plates thats are just plain, so that i can drill my own nozzles and stuff in them...i want to try one big hole about 7-8mm in diameter and loads of small nozzles like 2 mm wide.

Heres one.. EK DDC Top..But if you are going to run 3/8" tubing and want to use the stock top it would still be a fine pump to use....

This is the only review that I know of off hand, and its the GT against the Fuzion...CPU Water Block Round Up APOGEE GT/GTX vs. STORM vs. FuZion vs. APOGEE vanilla ..Just don't get the Apogee GTX, it has a aluminum top in it and you can get galvanic corrosion using one....
