In terms of raw performance the Storm is better. But there are other blocks, like the Apogee that come to close to call in the average loop. The Storm requires LOTS of pressure (a powerful pump or two) to function at its best, and is prone to clogging if you aren't very careful.

I saw a review and the the MCW6000775 was able to work ok with a small tank pump.

A lot of ppl are using this...The thing is Storm is twie the price of the MCW6000 is it twice as good. Or are we talking abou t a minimal difference in performance if any i n real world operations!

The D-TEK White Water block seems to be a good performer that doesn't require too much pressure.

If you're looking to save some cash the MCW will be fine. A few degrees C one way or another is only important to enthusiast types anyway.

You are very right about the D-tech WW...a lot of ppl highly recommend it..

I am kinda new to w/c , can you explain a couple of things plz.. Water blocks...Most have 2 inlets which makes sense in & out completing the circuit but blocks such as the D-tech WW have 3 , can you explain how 3 are used.. I am sorry if this is a stupid question.

Also I have a reservoir p mp that delivers 2L per min..Is that enough ? And If I wanted to add a second pump is that possible and how!
