They are okay products. Not the best, not the worse.

Here is a text diagram to show how incompetent I am at making diagrams...

I would say that you are under the "good price to performance ratio" section. Sure, you could spend twice as much or more for a notch more cooling, but meh, I personally wouldn't. As long as it cools better than air, I see more reason to save the extra money for something else.

i would go with a swiftech apogee GT and a Swiftech MCR120 or MCR220.

Sorry to ask, I tried googling but I didn't have any luck. How much is 30 quid in american dollars?

Also, I found this review (http://www.cluboverclocker.com/reviews/super_cooling/dangerden/tdx939/index.htm) by cluboverclocker.com on the 939 TDX block. It looks like it performs better than I thought, according to them in 2004 at least.

I think that this is your radiator (http://www.overclockers.com/articles1140/), it might not be, but I think it is.

Ah okay, I was confused by the term quid, I didn't realize that its the same as pound. You think after watching almost every episode of Top Gear I would know by now. :)

Anyways, it looks like if you were to buy those two products brand new from DangerDen.com it would cost you roughly around 44 pounds (88 dollars) without shipping costs. So you would be saving approximately 14 pounds, or 28 dollars. Which is a pretty good deal, I think thats half the price right? I keep wanting to say a third of the price for some reason. My brain must still be trying to wake up or something. lol
