Hello all. I currently own a Swiftech Apogee XT block (since 2010), coupled with a dual rad and a mcp655 pump. I'm considering switching to the title block for better flow and better cpu temps in general since this is a much newer block with better design.
Is the switch worth?
Do currently owners of this block can give a feedback on it? :oops:
Thanks in advance.

All the blocks now are lower restriction, and tighter micro channels.
They do offer better peformance, but nothing ground breaking.

Is the switch worth it?
Depends on how much compatibility you wish for your block to have.
Your better off taking your new evo to say a Ryzen build then you do on finding mounts for the XT.

It will be on intel platforms. I currently own a 7700k and will switch maybe to a 9900kf or next gen... Thanks.
Opinions or comparisons are welcome :D

there are a few blocks i would consider upgrading and this is coming from someone that is running a EVO full copper edition, because i run silver in my loop.

1. AquaComputers Kryos Next Vision:

By far the prettiest looking block off my list. Would make an impressive eye catching display.

If i had a large disposable budget i would probably get this:
https://shop.aquacomputer.de/product_info.php?products_id=3544
Silver block + copper + OLED... i would not care if my EVO performed better unless it was by a large margin.
The last silver cpu block i had was more then 10yrs ago and that was a silver TDX from DangerDen.

2. Bitspower TouchAqua Summit OLED:
https://shop.bitspower.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=7216
It would go well with my Auros G9. You can never have too many RGB's (sigh), no seriously tho, its the OLED screen which got my attention.

You can guess i want those two... i am a geek when it comes to OLED displays....
No but seriously, its only because of the OLED i want those two blocks, and not performance.
Infact im willing to wager they probably would lose to my EVO in the performance aspect.

3. Swiftech APOGEE SKF

4. Koolance CPU-400i
https://koolance.com/processor-water-block-intel-cpu-400i

These two i want because koolance shows very impressive numbers, while th swiftech has a very impressive micro channel cut.
I am willing to guess, these two may perform slightly better then my EVO.
Maybe not by a big margin, but a couple of C's here and there.

The other blocks im sort of MEH on, since i already have an EVO, and they would most likely perform near PAR or my EVO.
