Changing barbs on Maximus V Formula

[Lambo]

Hi,
I currently have the Asus Maximus V Formula and I'm using 3/8-5/8 tubing, but I'd like to switch to 1/2-3/4 tubing and was wondering if the watercooling barbs on the hybrid thermal solution can be removed, or if I have to resort to using reducers to connect larger tubes.

Thanks.

it can not be changed since it is a tube in side the molded cooler it self.
as you can see on this pic -> http://assets.vr-zone.net/15135/maximus_v_formula_4.jpg
if you want other fittings on it its only aftermarket waterblock
its only on the new 6 series you can use what ever you want.

Will removing the fusion thermo void the warranty ?

Technically yes, but if you do not physically damage both the board and the unit you can put it back in the unlikely case you do have a defect later on.
