The concept of a modular block means it's also resellable - so you're more likely to invest in it in the first place, even if you chose not to continue with watercooling at your next upgrade cycle. Your investor can then just grab a base plate for a little cost and the whole process keeps on rolling. The only worry is corrosion and block lifetime, but a conscientious watercooler will have taken measures to prevent this.

With that said, the block’s performance speaks volumes for how much promise it shows and with a few refinements this block goes from being one with promise to one that outright delivers. We’ll be having another closer look at the block again in a week or so, as we’ve got a custom-built overclocked and airbrushed Vadim PC to marvel at while we put it through a grilling in /bit-tech/ labs.
