I have three of them Hybrid - Two with aftermarket pumps and one with a stock pump. I can tell no real difference between them. Same goes for the waterblocks.

EDIT: I forgot I have four of them now.

i change cpu block, give me some extra °C lower, changed the coolingpaste between the peltier plates gives me few °C lower.
But a pump to fast did give me worse temps, think the liquid doesn't get the time to cool down.
The internal of those alu block can be better, i'm looking to make new ones and better ones.

what kind of pump from coolit you mounted here on the boreas ?

The pump pictured above is a second revision stock version. Same as the first, just less noise I think.

I have settled on the Biostar mb and one 5970 for the gamer. The below benchmark was with the card on air...I may put it on the Boreas loop if for nothing else than to just rid myself of the fan noise. The Biostar is not a Micro mb so I can't use it in the former Weapons Grade case. I have a LianLi case due here this morning which I may use instead. I will post some pic's of it when it arrives.
