Alright now that I got the pump question out of the way it's time for a new one, yay! Ok, I am in need of new new reservoir to make the inside of my case look all clean and professional. I was looking at the EK multi option res, but I do not know which brands are good, bad, or ugly. Does it matter if it's a 5.25 bay res or just a clear tube res that can be mounted in my antec 1200, like Killers over in case and modding forum.
Since I am new to WC I am paranoid about water levels going low so I must be able to quickly see how the levels are. My side is clear, so that's not a problem.
Personally Im a t-line man, but out of all the reses I have seen, I prefer the clear tube type like the one you mentioned.

If I wasn't so in love with my res top, those EK cylindrical deals would get my vote. Great looking reservoirs. Someone at XS has beautiful custom cylinders, but I completely forgot who it was and how much they cost. Aigomorla, Spawn, Conumdrum...anyone remember who that was and how much they run?
Personally, I'd steer clear of a 5.25" bay res, for no other reason than filling headache and clutter. I've got a DVD burner, a Matrix Orbital and a Rheobus Extreme in my bays already. It's too much as it is!

Price ranges from 110-150 or so based on various custom options you want. Size is about 9"x2.6"... pretty large, but I'm pretty sure FrozenQ will set you up with custom sizes if you ask... just pm him if you're interested.
