I never bothered to ask, I know with most cpu blocks and the like, there are specified inlet and outlet ports for each hole. Are your Vreg and Chipset blocks machined differently under each port? Or does it matter?

eventually, the water in every loop stabilizes at a specific temp.  My blocks go either direction, you can install the hoses as you wish.

Both blocks, or just the Vreg?


Both Vreg and Chipset

This will be my first chipset/vreg water cool. What are people using to connect chipset to cpu to vreg? I'm thinkin just a couple 90 deg connecters and PVC tubing. Any better ideas or experiences for this board and these blocks?

A part of me feels 90's would be good along with rigid acrylic tubing given the short distance it's traveling. The thing is with a large amount of 90 degree angles I feel like it must have an effect on flow. I kind of picture the loop running into a flat wall and changing direction everytime there is a 90 degree angle.

Rigid tubing can lessen the effect of 90 deg angles as usually the radius on bends are not too sharp and you have control
over how you bend the tube anyway.

So you are saying use normal connector then bend rigid tubing in a gradual arc to lesson the flow disruption? That would probably be best. Though I would have to get a proper tube bending kit.

Well you would have to use the Rigid tube compression fittings of course but yes, rigid tube bends are not as
severe a direction change as regular 90 deg fittings. There is a lot more effort involved in Rigid tubing 
but it is pretty cost effective, the bending kits are pretty cheap and you can use a Hair Drier if you do not have
a heat gun.
