OCZ HydroFlow HF-MK1 ---- Thoughts?

[reiyushin]

I've got an opportunity to buy one of these things cheap.

I was originally going to get:
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-010-HK&groupid=962&catid=1519&subcat=1536

But OcUK are out of stock with no ETA and everywhere else seems to want to charge a fortune for them.

So as a first time WCer will the OCZ Hydroflow be adequate for my needs?
I've read some reviews which show it being decent enough but up to 6 degree's above the best waterblocks (which seems like an awful lot, do different blocks really have the variance they are describing?)

Thanks

It's a good block - but not the best (as you'd expect at half the price)
stock is good for c2d - lap and increase mounting pressure for quads/i7

If you can pick up a HK3 for under £40inc it's worth the extra.
