Here we see the water-block we'll place onto the processor. Pure copper, good quality. Not mirror lapped but very even. It'll do the job perfectly. Gigabytes 3D Galaxy water block is designed to support the Intel Pentium 4 (Socket 478/775) and Xeon (Socket 603/604) processors. Also supported are AMD processors including the AthlonXP, Duron, Sempron, AthlonMP (Socket A/462) and Athlon64, AthlonFX, Opteron (Socket 754, 939, 940 & AM2). This universal design is achieved through the use of multiple clips and mounting brackets.

The kit is complete and contains everything you'll need including clamps, screws, tubing, springs, washers, cables, manual and thermal paste. You name it and it's in there.

We now move onwards to the Blue Eye that we used as well. A VGA Cooler block.

This is why it's called a Blue Eye. Once activated a blue LED will light up and through that window you'll notice a flow-indicator. That's fantastic, aesthetics versus usability.
