some of you may have seen the watercooled microATX thread a while back. well i've progressed somewhat on it. I got my rad (2-570) and pump. I've kind of hit a wall with the waterblock. i don't want to spend 50 bucks to get a waterblock here. i'm not going for record temps. i just basically am trying to watercool the thing internally for kicks and because a single cpu fan is just not gonna cut it any more. i plan to have it fold once its successfully wc'ed. anyway, in my search for a cheap wb, i've narrowed it down to the TC-4 by D-tek or the Maze4 by DangerDen. the Tc-4 is only $25, and the maze4 is $35. my question is, are these blocks going to be essentially worthless? are they even worth the money? i just find it hard to pay a mid-range price for crap when i could spend 20 more to get the best retail block. then again, thats how i always get trapped into spending more money he he. which of these blocks should i get for a low-cost, as good performance as i can get for that money, block?
also, i want to be able to take out the barbs b/c i will be using copper pipe in the whole system. will i be able to do this with these blocks?
