I have a wii. And yes a Northbridge sink is the same. Just make sure not to overtighten and crush the core. Essentially its the same principal

The guys over @ systemcooling.com found out that if you mod the DCC pump and change the orientation of the outlet, you get better performance from it.

Petras sell an already modded top to go on the pump.

o i get it. not a bad idea. a better idea is to have the pump and the res directly attached to each other like the pump res combo on my lcs.

Exellent info. The writeup from Petras site is awesome as well. Great review on pump tops. I think XSPC is the way Im going to be going with the DDC pump.

Thanks guys.
