alright, i have a asetek waterblock here, but i cant seem to find a socket 775 top for it. so im going to make my own. thing is, i can't seem to get the 3rd hole working, how it harrows into a slit. so i can wondering, how much would it affect the performance of the block if i did what in this picture:
this is how it is right now:
also note that im not using the 3/8 barbs, ive changed them and will tap the top to use 1/2 barbs. im using a hydor l30 pump. its gonna be running with my chipset block and a triple rad.
