I've built a triple radiator full custom loop using only EK parts (cost >1000€) last year. I wish this one was available back then.

Not really an unveiling since this was a microcenter exclusive for their powerspec line for almost a year now.

Nvm, that one doesn't look terrible.

Yes all distribution plates look nice... until you have to clean it. That's why I stay clear of them.

And you have to clean it one way or the other at least once every 2 years. There is over 70 screws in this thing and PMMA is supremely easy to crack or strip thread during the maintenance. I did my fair share of liquid cooling builds and no matter how much experience you have, how many thousands of hours you put in projects, there is always something that goes wrong in every single build or servicing. That's life...

There are 60 screws, close to but definitely no over seventy.
