Any 1 use them and find much of a differance than without? or are they not worth the bother.

From memory the No5 nozzle was meant to make a difference. Less restrictive IIRC.

Could be speaking out my ****, but I thought it was the other way round, no5 was more restrictive as it was trying to emulate the Storm blocks which was the king at the time they came out.

heard about 4 & 5 giving more pressure but is it worth the extra cost and effort. than just not bothering at all. 5c would seem worth it tome. but i can see them only giving 1 or 2 at most.

Using a bigger restriction locally increases flow velocity to aid cooling in a focussed spot. It's only worth doing on naked single cores I would have thought.

cheers not going bother then as seems aint going see hardly any gain.

I was nearly tempted to upgrade my (not very much restricted) CPU block to this new one from Aquacomputer. I think it'll have a large effect on flow rates, but it's certainly all about hitting the CPU with water as fast as possible.

Picture - linked it since it's a big image

Basically the water enters the block, is forced down the nozzles, impacts on the block above the core, comes back up, and is forced down a second set of nozzles to impact on the block above the core again.

Apparently they brought it out to suit dual and quad cores.

This picture is of the copper base of the Cuplex XT, which I assume the double impact one will be similar to.

I can see that really slowing down flow rates, so I decided not to go for it.
