Oops,I really should have looked before i linked it sorry:D
Maybe send them a web note to find out when and if there coming back into stock.At least if you get it after you build it should be easy enough to add it with out interfering with the WC.
 
lol its ok I have bought it elsewhere now along with a 4870X2 water block...well I thought I might as well since the delivery cost was more than the extender itself lol :D thanks though mate :D
 
Ok quick photo update.

This doesnt have all the parts yet. Still waiting on the CPU block to arrive.

In this pic you can see the clear tubing (4m), the compression fittings, the rad, the pump/res combo, the coolant (UV blue), UV cathodes and LEDs for the pump/res.

As mentioned before I have now ordered the XSPC 4870X2 water block with a 8 pin extender. These should be coming next week. :D
 
I'd be very interested to see what the noise is like with that pump/res combo as i've been looking at using one if i start WC'ing.
 
You're gonna need more than a 120.2 rad to cool the 4870X2 as well mate. A guy on here has an i7 and X2 running off a 120.3, andd even that doesn't do a great job.

Yeah me too but I dont mind the noise cos my 4870X2 runs noisy with the fans at 65% :D

Yeah I know...but I only bought the 4870X2 block cos the delivery charge for the extender was more than the part itself lol...so I dont know if and when I will be using it. :D
 
Finally it has arrived:
