Hehehe.........

When I was using the A/C to chill my loop I only had a single rad 120 x 240mm. More water makes a big difference I'm sure, but I need the best block out there also.

Taking the block apart to check for any residual buildup from 2 days usewith a strainer/screen from a paint gun on it.......it's not cooling nearly as well as the night I first installed the stock base plate.

EDIT: I need to design my own base plate that won't get all filled with cat hair etc.....I have a couple nice big copper passive HS. I could make 1 base-plate out of each one. I'll have to get it machined square and flat with 6 holes.......probably be a failed experiment.
