XConnect gpu waterblock from AC discussion (concept only)

That picture of the HD 4870 block is nothing really new. A few information and both pictures are available in our forum for ~1 week now ;)

well it's new here, and as you came to tell us about the GTX 280 waterblock @ XS, we had no reason to believe that any other info was available as you didn't provide it for the 4870 like you did for the 280. Kein problem ;)

That block will be a hella-alot restrictive.:shakes: NaeKuh would not approve...:rofl::ROTF::rotf::lol:

No, just use two plexiglass and/or delrin adapters, one on each side. It's possible, here's an Alphacool:

Just make the top 2 or 3mm instead of .5mm. Alphacool's total thickness is 4mm, while AquagraFX's is 6mm, so it's definately possible.

Someone needs to hire me :)

BTW I really don't like that acrylic, I'd make it delrin.
