Just wondering what you guys would recommend for a CPU liquid block for liquid cooling. I hear a lot about Swiftech but I figure I'd just check with everyone. I'm interested in the best performance. All I know is that a copper one is a good start. Also, which blocks should I stay away from? I have heard a lot about certain blocks corroding and breaking and lots of damage.

They are just the best.

 

Make sure you use the right flow head for your cpu socket though...

The standard EVO comes with the LGA1155/1150/1151 head installed and the 2011 one separate, while the EVO-x99 only comes with the 2011 one installed.
