i was about to order 1/2 inch barbs with g1/4 thread for a new water setup but then remembered(well i think) my thermochill pa120 rad takes g3/8.

was going to order the barbs from here, in the description it says "G1/4" Thread for use with almost all water blocks". i currently have the watersetup from a thermaltake armour lcs. im not using the supplied rad at the moment as i swapped it out for the therm, now i want to put the lcs rad in the loop too but dont know the thread size for the rad, i was wondering if theres a standard or something. 1/4 for blocks 3/8 for rads??

i tried a 1/4 inch thread barb on my lcs rad and it went in fine in one of the outlets, but got stuck after a few turns in the other.

also my lcs cpu block, would you know if that takes g1/4, crappy thermaltake manual doesnt tell me anything about thread sizes, just came with 3/8 tubing if thats any help

cheers
