So we plugged in the fan, led and pump, applied some AS3 to the processor and then attached the block using the supplied clip.

The clip is very simple to use. You put it over the block, clip into place and then screw down. It's a very solid fit, very well designed.

You can see in the end of the water filler, is an LED that lights up the water a little. It looks rather cool! But, not particularly functional as when the watercooler is on it's side, the air doesn't tend to rise up enough but instead stay in the block. The new version looks like this:

This is a much better system. It was strange how I was thinking the exact same thing, and then they go and do it! If you are an owner of the older version (as we were), it's very easy to do this by just taking a piece of 3/8" (external) tubing and it fits snuggly inside.

We found topping up was necessary about once a week. It would be nice if there could be a top up sensor inside the water filler. It could be connected to an LED that fits in a drive bay. Then when it needs filling up, it will blink a the front of the PC.
