A full set of QD4 fittings costs ~$27.50 to $29.50, which is a significant addition over the QD3 series. The trend of using larger 1/2″ x 3/4″ tubing and fittings is decreasing rapidly in PC DIY watercooling, and the threaded versions will need an adapter which is an additional cost.They finally have acknowledged, albeit via a silent revision, that their black finish fittings needed changes and the new ones have held up well in my 10 week long test. The locking collar with pull to disconnect type design works very well, and flow performance is decent.
