I've thought about this before. But Ek predators + their pre-filled full cover blocks seems quite convenient. 

Pre filled? What? Does this mean I just slap it on and forget about it?

Its an aio with quick disconnects. Its a plug and play thing. Hassle free. But I'm not sure how good the cooling performance is.

Hey if it's better than the Tri-X cooler I couldn't give two shits. I want to hit 1300MHz.

Its not cheap though.... And only the 360mm rad version come with the quick disconnects.  

 

 

 

 

I'd do it honestly, its just that I don't really have that money to spend :B But of course, I'd research more to see compatibility and the cons.

My best is a GT525m. Came at only 475/900MHz and could do 720/990MHz with stock voltage.

Then it comes a r9 380 Nitro I had for a few days. 1200/1625 stable and passed Firestrike at 1275/1625.

ANd finally my actual r9 285. 1120/1580 with modded bios and I still get random idle core and memory crashes...

1275mhz core on a Antigua/Tonga? Wow...

In only one that run or all runs? Run it again, might just be a hiccup.

Can't find that model on EKWBs site, only AIO is for the CPU, and the water blocks are all just... blocks...

Not sure if your specific Tri X is compatible, but some of the tri x are listed there.

Sadly I don't have that 380 anymore. I only did that run to see how far I could go with just random high voltage numbers in the bios xD

Yep, no cash for that. Would rather save the $410 I have now for Polaris.
