can we get theat 680 heatsink a little higher on the list? ;)
I am quite astonished not to have seen an " 'bout time " remark from Waterlogged re. the MCRX40's !:ROTF:
@ Waterlogged: please indulge me!
Gabe, to be totally blunt for a minute yes, people get impatient but they don't get upset with you for one simple reason:Quote:

In a world were everyone lies,cheats and tries to screw over everyone, you just tell the truth.
So FK the production schedules, when they get here they get here!:rofl:

What's for dinner ?
Gr 5-10-12
How wide are the 140mm radiators? Just curious to see if they will fit in 5.25" bays.
You ever make it out this way and I'll put a dinner in front of you that will put a smile on your face..:wasntme:Quote:

MCW82 "true contact" adapter kit for 7970/7950
Any ideas on a substitute in the meantime? Can I put a piece of copper as a spacer?
You are cracking me up, and I'm supposed to be working :)
'bout time. :cheer: :DQuote:

^ yeah. what's up with that?Quote:

I know, I probably sound like total impatient loony, but I'm sure you guys understand this excitement - this is not just an another watercooling item - this is mega combo that people were waiting for a long time - best water block combined with best pump! This is the answer for all prayers!:yepp:
Was there an update on the heatsink for the dual MCP35x?
Will the new 140mm radiators have built in reservoirs? For extreme clean loop with an AD2P
MCR140-QP and MCR240-QP come without built-in reservoir.
Stephen?Quote:

Yes, of course it comes from from factory, but wanted to know where exactly - is it in USA or other country?Quote:

The silicon of the 7970 & 7950 is .2mm below the frame. So your 82 is sitting on the frame, not on the GPU.Quote:

I have designed:
• a new base plate for the 82 which is specific to 7970 & 7950.
• a hold-down plate which is specific to the 54mm hole to hole distance (standard is 53.2)
• a cross-bracket identical to the stock solution (with AMD’s blessings)
All these parts should arrive within 2 to 3 weeks.
Meanwhile, using thick thermal pad as a gap filler. But if your temps don't drop at least into the 60's then re-install the stock cooling.
[Edit] I see that Stephen ok'd a shim.. I think you might want to save your dough for now, and use thermal pad if you have some. Give it a try.. The spacing between frame and silicon as I said is very tiny (0.2mm) so a pad will fit. Less than ideal thermal conductivity granted, but a cheap bandaid for now.

and btw, I can't blame you for being impatient, I'm too :)
This is why I love my Swiftech stuff. Gabe and Stephen have responded to everyone of my emails and done so quickly. He responded with this little tidbit of info and I was going to post it up here, but as usual, he is quicker than I am. I will give it a try Gabe and Stephen and let you guys know what I come up with to hold me off till the proper solution becomes available. Thank you so much for the personal support you guys give here.
