Its the enzotech luna, and it uses the same micro pin design of the gtz, but it gets better temperatures than it. Only problem is, the LED's can be a little bit annoying, since they flash.

I think most of the ones here are from Andreoid and Finnz if not all (and Enzotech) and they've probablybeen doing it for 2 or 3 years now. I have seen maybe 4 or 5 other blocks made by different people that used LED's, but none of those were really well done and I didn't save the pics and those were done maybe 5+ years ago.

Ithink many of the commercial blocks wth acrylic has LED hoes drilled into em too, I am sure many of the 295 blocks do anyway. Not to mention the EK Classified full mobo block also has an LED hole or two drilled into the bridge (acrylic section briging the mosfet to the NB), but I don't have a pic with the LED's on.

If my block I am making fo my ITX mobile FSX computer goes ok, I was planning on making a CPU acrylc intermidiate plate sandwhiched between the copper bae and black acetal top like Andreoid and Finnz to match my EK classifid block's lite show ( I have the acetal black topwith red acrylc bridge version).

Probably more out there, these are just the few I am aware of.

Just as a warning, the acrylic top waterblocks sometimes tend to crack after a while...

None of those are Thermaltake blocks, nor an HDD cooler. I agree though, the ram cooler could look better. Maybe if they put a black acetal top on it so the light show is only on the edges like a couple of the other blocks linked.

Think that's the way to go for it, not an all clear acrylic top where the light is all defused looking. I'd like to copy this way of doing it, think all the light show blocks I liked just lit up the edges and the ones that had the whole top as a light show was either too defused and cheap looking or so bright it was blinding.

and the modded hetkiller

And the ram cooler, pretty neat if it makes good contact with all the sticks.
