Post D-tek fuzion GFX V1 worth it?

If I can get a D-tek Fuzion GFX V1 block for 25 shipped, is it worth it over spending roughly the same amount if not a little bit more for an mcw60? (both used. The d-tek is like-new) I'm thinking about getting a 4800 series card right now.


my current config:

mcp355 pump with a custom top
apogee GT
Swiftech microRES
Thermochill PA120.3

would the restriction in the d-tek block be too much and reduce the cooling ability for my cpu?

Thanks in advance.

Get it. That's plenty fine.

I use them on OC'd Ultras, and they are great. With sig clocks I idle at40C-ish and Load at no higher than the low 50's.

My only complaint is kinda moot, as I used 3/4" OD tubing that is snug. I needed to install the tubing on the barbs prior to installing the block (with Uni-Sink).

The point is moot as 5/8" OD tubing will do just as well, but will eliminate the fitment issue.
