Hi, have anyone here actually have modded kraken x61? 

 

if yes then would appreciate if you would share your thoughts - is it worth doing? 

 

Im looking at adding water res.  but as far as ive looked theres nothing online about the flow rate or head pressure for it. 

 

Any info will be appreciate,

Thanks.

While it's not impossible it's not recommended, adding a res isn't that hard on those units since it would just require splicing one in or replacing the tube but note you need a mix metal fluid in those since AIO coolers use aluminum rads.
