Hey folks.

Im trying to get sum info on wich universal GPU block to get for my H2O bench setup. Im only gonna use a gpu block on this loop. The block should perform good but it should also be universal without changing brackets for each socket.

Ive been looking at rasa block, but would like sum input:)

Anyone kow if this block also will work on a 7970? Ive got one of those shims for this gpu.

Thnx in advance:)

I have installed 3 EK supreme HF GPU bridge edition on my 3 GTX 680 classified cards, still have not tried them yet but I love the way they look with a tri SLI EK bridge over them.

Check it out.....

Don't know how these (http://www.aquatuning.de/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=microSW&) might perform (released long time after skinneelab's roundup), but they look rather interesting. Universal + extra blocks for cooling different VRMs + look like well fit for SLI interconnecting via fittings or multi-gpu LC bridges (are higher then gpu PCB height + low profile).
Would love to see such sets from other vendors as well. Always hated not-universality of full cover blocks, and these seem fixing all shortcomings of universal gpu blocks.

EDIT:
Hmm, on second look these probably are not as universal as normal ones simply because of not having exchangeable mounting plate for non standard gpu sizes/orientations, instead just one set of cuts for mounting screws in block top. But still, seems best overall universality/cooling compromise.
