Man, that thing looks monstrous!!!

I gotta think long and hard about this......
I have a Cascade, which is great, but I also have a couple of other systems....

And little money and many things needed for both my car and my house.

The previous best performing block was Cathars's Cascade.
Before that was Cathar's White Water.

The Storm series is a bit better than the Cascade:
G4 about .8c I think and the G5 a bit better than that.

Gongo56 · Sep 20, 2004

hmm anyone know if the back plate on my msi k8n neo2 platinum mobo for the hs/fan will work for the G4?

Jbroad572 · Sep 20, 2004

Is that block worth $100? How much is the g5 block and when should it be coming out? If it's worth it I may cancel my Swifty 6002.

For those asking if the block is worth it....

Well, it depends: if you always want the best "bang for the buck" you can get, probably not.
There ARE much cheaper blocks that will get you within a few degrees of the temps a Storm will get you.

If you want to have THE BEST WATERBLOCK and Performance available, then yes,I think it probably is.

I almost always go cheap for my computer stuff- this lets me have a few spare machines.

But I splurged on a Cascade quite a while back, because I wanted to get THE BEST for once. It was expensive, and worth every penny I spent.
Worth more in fact: nobody but Cathar has beaten the Cascade's performance commercially yet.

To stress how "worth it" I consider Cathar's blocks:

I have 5 watercooled machines that all run just fine.
As I said before, I have many demands on my funds and little to spare right now for luxury items.

I am still thinking VERY hard about how I can manage to scrape up the funds and justify spending it on a Storm.
