ShrimpBrime is just getting started
Default Purchased a new/used water block.

I purchased a Swiftech GTZ block. It has s775 brackets I can use with my i7 3770K.

It looks really large on the bottom. How does this block fair for cooling?

Possibly used for TEC cooling cause of Witch_D getting my itch for that stuff going again. I can't stand it cause I can never find a decent way to run a TEC on a PC.... BUT never the less I really dig the challenges faced when using that type of cooling.

I'd just like to know about cleaning the block. From what I see there's a piece of plastic inside to direct waterflow. If this piece is removed, will it make the water block useless??

And the seal looks to be 2 piece? Should I purchase extras? Has there been known problems with this block leaking??

Thanks in advance!
