best CPU water block?

ok so im cant decide between these 3 blocks
- Dtek White Water (1/2'')
- DD RBX (1/2'')
- Polarflo TT 3 Barb (1/2'')

im leaning toward the white water. also there will be a DD maze4 GPU block, a T-line, D4 pump or 50z (cant decide ), and a single or dual heater core in the loop. so tell me what one i should choose.

out of those 3 i'd choose the WW. But i'd also look @ the Swiftech 6002 block. Probably the best block for its price out there.

and if you can go for dual heater core. I regret going for a single, was fine for just CPU but with GFX you really should have dual if you plan to overcock and put a hefty voltage through the CPU

and i dont think you can go wrong with any of those blocks really, would probably edge towards WW though.

Those three blocks is pretty evenly matched imo, i've only used the RBX from those three. And it' performed really well, but the pump is very important espacially if you go with the ww...
