Between the different waterblock tops available, is there a benefit to choosing one top over the other. Other than how they look?
Are there downsides to choosing one over the others, other than cost

Such as.
PVD / Brass
Nickle Plated Brass
Copper
Acrylic
Acetal

I like most except acrylic or any plastic that could crack and nickel since it could flake as I've seen in the past from another mfger. One of my favorites I usually use is either Silver or Acetal. It's really up to you though. Just be careful with acrylic if you head that route.
