No doubt there'll be threads that have more information (simply playing the odds given the size of the forums as a whole) but I don't see this thread as irrelavent.... so far. So I'm not planning on killing it anytime soon. As to your question I don't have an answer, sorry. I've never ran a chiller system and I've only got one block which is a modified MCW462 and I never even used it stock. Anyone else?

Which ever block you do end up getting make sure you can easily insulate the entire outside of it. I made the mistake of getting a Swiftech MCW5000 and with all the angles it's a huge pain to insulate

gpu block- make sure there is good clearance between the barbs and the card.- I had an almost impossible time insulating because my DD Z block had those 90degree turns so close to the card.

MCW462 works great and you don't have to worry about the top been made of plexy-glass
