it will cool it yes, but will it cool it as well at an EK supreme or D-Tek Fuzion V2 is another thing.

straight off from the pics you can see that the surface area of the block were the heat is transfered is not as effective as it could be just look at the EK supreme

Raw tomato, lemon juice or straight vinegar would be infinitely better than ketchup...no sugary residue to worry about removing.

And a mirror finish doesn't really help anything, except looks.

Ok then,i think i may go for this option instead!!:)

Well if the water block dont cut it, you can always fry some chips on the CPU and dip them in the ketchup - nice!
