Hi guys, just wanted to know what top is compatible with the bitspwer D5 Mod Kit http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=wc-328-bp as i can't find the bitspower top sold anywhere in the uk? as shown here http://forums.vr-zone.com/the-overclockers-bay/370689-bitspower-d5-mcp655-mod-top.html, if no chance of buying this in the uk would this top be compatible? http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-209-EK&groupid=962&catid=2141&subcat=2143 also what D5 pump would you recommend and reservoir for this combination? I know its a lot of questions but I would much appreciate the help, thanks

I have the XSPC D5 and the EK top you listed, and been very happy with them. For the reservoir I take it you want a tube as you are going to the effort of covering the pump, in which case either the Bitspower tubes or the EK X3 tubes. I went with the Bitspower Z-Multi 150ml and again very happy with it.

Are you sure this is compatible?

As I understand it the bitspower casing require the bitspower top as it screws on to the top.

This wouldn't be compatible as you need the screw ring to tighten the D5 mod kit, you could glue it in place I suppose but it's not going to be a neat fit.

Try searching for the Bitspower V2 mod top. The top you linked has been replaced. OCuk have the acrylic one here

OCUK V2 top has G3/8" inlet and outlet holes!
You may need thread converters if you get that, or look for a V2 top with G1.4" holes.
I have one in my build log.

I'm glad I haven't ordered the parts yet then, but what I don't get is why are overclockers just selling the the mod kit and not the bitspower top if there only compatible with each other, so strange, anyway thanks for the shout mate
