I doubt it'd be much better than good aircooling.

So, basically you transfer the heat via the water, but have the same fan and heatsink? Err... exactly of what use is this? To me it just seems like a few extra layers of thermal paste... or liquid.

whats wrong with using this for sli? get another block and slap it in the loop. it'll be dedicated video cooling. your cpu can have its own loop

Looks neat, but yeah, too small rad for SLI, really for an SLI rig u need a custom set-up. Most of these pre-built kits arent that great for high end applications.

It can be a bit better but will be alot more expensive , i guess .
