Hi guys.
Just received my new Heatkiller GPU-X2 GTX 285 from www.watercool.de !
That is really a nice one.

The load temp was 45-47°C on GPU while water was at 29-30°C. My clocks reached 792/1420/1650 with a Palit GTX 285 :D
i'd be damned :shocked:
that is one hell of facinating FC block i've ever seen...:D
bit confuse how the top is mount...is it only the middle top
Water flows throuh the middle part with the "X" on it, that is right. This is mounted to the Plate, which covers the Mosfets etc. In the plate there is milled a structure, where the water is pressed through. That gives a real good cooling performance :D
I will take a look for pics from inside. Mine is installed yet ;)
I really like the looks of the HK blocks. Looks very industrial and serious if you ask me.
Looks good. Seems to be a two-slot solution. As far as I can understand German there seems to be a sli-solution. This SLI-solution is mighty cool!

HOLY AWESOME BATMAN!
They look SICK!!!!
Yes and it ist pretty more stable, when installed with these SLI-Links. Your Board will be thankful :D
There isn't a day when I ask myself, "Is my board thankful today?" ;)Quote:

wow the internals of this waterblock are really interesting, they look pretty restrictive i think though?.. combining a FC style block with a CPU style fin layout under it.. i like it a lot
:nono: PARALLEL :nono:
lest history repeat itself once more, don't let NaeKuh see this thread!!!:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
So parallel is not recommended? I was thinking of buying HK's 4870 CF solution.
the way parallel works the block farther from the barbs gets less flow by a factor of the length between the blocks, its all in Bernoulli's equation
someone had a nice diagram of it before but I cant seem to find it now....
+1 for the series and make it for 2 x 295's :)
I was looking at the internals of the HK. Gorram! It looks extremly restrictive! The fins seems to be perpendicular to water flow.
Can someone post the internals? I cant navigate in german.
Note that this is for the R670 GPU. They might have done changes. It's hard to know since they seem to not post the internals on their site.

Okay this might be a little bit restrictive, but for the GPU it works very well. In a test this block for the GTX 280 beats the EK-Block by 4,1°C better cooling. The flow with the EK-block was 292,2 litres per hour and the flow with the Watercool block was 253,2 litres per hour.
(1 Litre = 0,264172052 Gallons)
Could you post internals of your block?
But for a single card solution, it's gorgeous.........and look at the prices! For the 4870, 35 Euros, or $45 U.S.
The GTX 285 block is 40 Euros, or $52 U.S.
I'm fairly positive that you can run Watercool GPU coolers in series:

You'd have to buy one for each GPU block you buy.
I am sorry, but I am already running my card in my system now and I want to leave it in there. I reached 792/1620/1485 stable now.Quote:

I think you must be looking at the upgrade Kits right?Quote:

But if using SLI, why buying these single 4-way Adapters? Ah let me guess... to separate them in different loops? Or to feed the blocks with water like you want it and not not like the links do?Quote:

:up: Looking forward to it!Quote:
