I hope that EK will release soon his block.
It should be heavy and expensive with this double block.

those are some nice blocks
Eddie will have them ready next week, though in limited numbers at first... if it's anywhere near 8800GTX block performance my GTX will love it big time !!
Héhé I should have my gtx280 the next week (or maybe this week). This time, we don't need to wait too much to have good waterblocks (not like the release of the 8800GTX) :clap:
Hi guys!
You are the first one to see these images.
Enjoy.
Eta end of next week!
sweet loooks like : http://www.eko.uj.edu.pl/przyrodakrakowa/galeria/41.jpg ;)
sweet! I like the doubled sided part and I really like the fact there's no aluminum.
are full cover blocks better than die blocks with a sink on the remaining components (like fuzion gfx with unisink)? or does it not really make a difference?
Well it depends, you will usually get better temps with a die only block and just some sinks on the memory/mosfets compared to a full cover.
The reason is because the coolant takes heat from both the memory/mosfets AND the core/die. So theres added heat dump in other words. But if you've got a big enough radiator(s) there shouldn't be hardly a difference. :up:
And IMO, full covers are sexier. :D
there is a difference to tubbing management too.
You cannot use big fittings on a MCW-60 or DTEK but when you got a full card block the fittings usually can be in opposite sides and will not collide with each other.
i think im holding both my systems until neha skulltrail comes out.
My 8800GT SLI system still can do way more then what i use it for. Right now all it does is play movies. LOL Need to find some good arcade emulators. :P
Pick up neha skulltrail, migrate this system over to my torture rack, and ditch the SLI setup entirely. *good riddence NViDIA*
I am picking up 2 HD4870X2 in 8 weeks when they come out. Possibly even 3 if we get inside pics on the new neha skulltrail board.
Hey nice block Eddy:up:
Lol @ the snail.:rofl: Funny thing is it's actually quite a good match...
ohh ok.. well as long as regular fittings like DD fat boys fit im fine
ek nikel plated 280gtx extreme goodness....
mmmmmmmmmm
oOo, can't wait!
Very tasty :)
Just gotta decide which card to go for now :shrug:
Sorry for the OT.
Is 280GTX SLIed 2-way even capable of competing against GX2 4-way SLI ? I thought that a 280GTX single can't even keep up with a single GX2.
Naekuh,
The new Nela Skulltraill will allow six ATI cores crossfired ? :)
depends on the resolution and settings.
Iany seriously wait for the 4870X2 solution b4 you go dropping 4 figures on your GPU Sector.
And i know your gonna wanna grab one of those Extra Special CPU's i just PM'd ya. :rofl:
It better, otherwise i dont see a solution to Crysis. :rofl:
