    Not sure to be honest, it was noted as the second best in the water cooling buyer's guide post, i guess the thermochill one look's chucky, you know, compared to the slim design of the swiftech.

    Quick note, is Tygon tubing good in conjuction with dye coolant's, i am thinking bout going blood red, and would like to get an opinion of a good, and dye cooperative tubing.

    Unless you're getting super fans stick with the Swiftech radiators. They're incredible bang for buck.

    Tygon tubing is the clearest of of the clear, so if you're putting gunk into your water then stick with it.

    Also what do you think is the best flow path for me,

    Res > Pump > CPU > Rad > Res
    Res > Pump > Rad> CPU > Res
