I'm trying to ween myself over to water cooling and the kits are seemingly out of my pocket-range. Other than that, I think it would be a good experience building my own waterblock. I'm going to use copper, if any of you know good places to purchase copper blocks [~1/2" x 2" x any length] that would be a great help. Local suppliers are preferred as I hear some people get raped on shipping. I'm going to fabricate the block by carving out the design and soldering a top and bottom piece. Any thoughts on a "best" design? I'm leaning towards a water-in right over the CPU core and meandering at 90º angles out to the water-out. Also, I'm having a hard time looking for brass barbed hose nipples, if someone could point me in the right direction, that would be nice. Any other tips and advice are welcome.
Thanks in advance,
