EK Water Blocks EK-RES X3 150 Water Cooling Reservoir

Some people complain about the 'plastic' plugs. Use a plastic screwdriver (or something similar) and you won't have an issue. Yes if you hit it with a metal screwdriver you'll leave blemishes. Overall I like it, works well, no leaks, rarely will you need the foam anti vortex which it includes as an option. Assuming you use the stand up EK anti vortex plate. I've not tried it with nothing, might work out.

High quality product, its mounting system is less than desirable and required drilling into my case, no "universal" solution provided. Although thats not the reason for the one less star, the reason i didn't give 5 stars is that the "plugs" provided are LOW quality plastic and garbage, turning them for tightening lead to deformation and therefore a blemish. the o-rings in the plugs are loose and not the perfect fit i see with the metal plugs i bought to replace the Garbo ones.

Fast shipping awesome customer service exactly what I wanted will shop again five stars

I still have this Res and it seems to work great, no cracks on it yet and it seals pretty well. I have used it on 3 builds so far and still holding Currently I have the glass part installed on the X3 100 version base since it is attached to my D5 water cooling pump. As you can see on the picture it is currently running on my case. Looks amazing and it does a fine job.

EK product, top notch in terms of product quality and quality control.
