Which line? They got free center, chain gun etc. They do look good and won't make your fingers scream out like the Bitspower ones do but note that the newer stock comes with Silver barbs which may not play well with nickel plated fittings/blocks.

I have them!

They're pretty good.

 

Just a warning though, be careful when tightening them, you can chip the paint off.

So make sure you use a cloth between the tool and fitting to help protect the paint. Also wet the outside of the tube where it will screw on to reduce friction.

 

BTW have you had a look at the monsoon chaingun fittings? they look awesome as well.

The chain gun fittings are very wide, be careful if you want to use them for things such as CPU blocks.

Feel free to PM for any water-cooling questions. Check out my profile for more ways to contact me.

If you are talking about the ones for flex tubing and not rigid then yes i have. They are the better compression fittings IMO.
