Please help! I've not long fitted a Zalman reserator to my rig. I wanted to check out how difficult it was before I went ahead & done the gfx aswell. In hindsight I should have asked all these questions & carried it out at once but I stand guilty of jumping into things head first :o I've read others saying the Zalman GPU block is crap so whats a good alternative? Bearing in mind the quietest option is preferable for those telly watching times. Thanks :)

PS The braiding is awaiting UV Molex connectors & ignore the dodgy half done decor :o

get an acetal top maze4... and 2 x 3/8" barbs, then 2 jubilee clips ...

or a swiftech mcw50 - which is push fit, and so the zalman tube (i think its 3/8" id, 1/2" od)

Thanks guys its appretiated! :) The Swiftech one is looking good for ease of fitting but how good are the big duel pipe heat sinks? Is there much of a difference between them & watercooling?
