With all that goodness packed into a small box, kinks are sure to be an issue. The 3/8 inch clear vinyl tubing has "Coolsleeves"
wrapped around it at critical points to eliminate any potential kinks and blockages. There is no circuitry inside the Nautilus
500, but plenty of power wire is wrapped up neatly into the back side of the box.

The compact water block is where "the rubber meets the road". This all copper unit employ’s Delphi’s Micro-Channel cooling design,
whereby lots of tiny fins stretch from the inlet to the outlet of the waterblock. The concept, being to expose as much copper as
possible to the passing fluid. This should work very well and I a look forward to testing. A smooth shiny surface is featured on
the base of the water block, covered by a protective piece of clear vinyl. In person, this is the most polished surface I have ever
seen.

The 3/8 inch vinyl tubing is pre-fitted to the waterblock. Ensuring that you have no leaks with your installation, and to speed up
the installation process, this approach is quite thoughtful. The inlet and outlet hose stretch 4 feet, giving you plenty of slack
to work with.
