I can't be 100% sure but I'd say yes, the thread on the cylinder will be identical so swapping it out should be simple enough.
 
Get them to confirm the diameter of the combo res. It looks smaller to me going by the pics.

Edit: and the bigger res will have naff all effect on cooling performance.

As far as I am aware it should go straight in, on the COMBO DCP there will be a little top which is taken off when you originally install it so you will need this I believe.

But apart from that it will work, It might even be an easier idea to just add the EK Multioption Reservoir X2 250 to the loop.

surely though more still water in the rest will disapate the heat from the in water coming from the gpu's.

more water in teh res means more to spread the heat so should make a slight improvement?
 
I think a larger res will only delay the fluid temp rising, to see any temp difference you'd be looking at a huge res.
 
+1, having more fluid in the loop will only delay the inevitable - if you are getting higher than desirable temps now the best way to counter that is to add radiator, not res

Click to expand...

there not higher than desirable around 50C at max load.

Was thinking of adding a 120mm rad at the back between CPU and GPU's and adding a bigger res as well.
 
FYI i just checked with EK they will not fit.

The dc 2.2 and 4 pump use a 50mm tube the stand alone res use a 60mm tube.

You can get the 50mm in bigger tubes though but only from EK
