I have a radiator blowing air direct on the pump bottoms. I've been running this setup for months without issues so far.
No, you can't. I have two units and the alphacool backplate is not required but it seems to help avoid flexing the card.
I'd buy the cheaper block.
The Phobya SLI fitting is OK but it is not that link you sent. It is cheap, I used them and they work OK.
It is not the shim, since the stock cooler works OK and it is flat across the surface that touch the GPU core.
I already proved that the contact is poor using a very thick thermal pad.

I need it, the latest Diammond 6970 did not make contact to the current V1 waterblocks, tested on two cards and 3 blocks. You must remember since you asked for pictures on my thread.

I need this kind of plate to use a full cover on my 6970. Too bad it is not on stock yet.

I bought a coolgate. It is great, performance is excelent. I had some issues installing the fans, some screw holes were not well alligned but I manage to install all four fand and shrouds
I'm using the phobya one slot sli fitting , they work and they are cheap.
It seems a blockage or water from res not feeding the pump.
The res is located over the pump or at its side? Pictures will help.
flat, the smalles point i found on this set http://www.homedepot.com/buy/tools-hardware/hand-tools/husky/6-piece-phillips-and-slotted-screwdriver-set-114521.html
I managed to get the broken piece from the block using a very thin tool and making rotating movement as if I was unscrewing the piece. I took some minutes but I finally dit it.
The real issue is...
I had the exact same problem.
I already sent EK an email.
the funny part is tiborrr message "we have extra standoffs for sale". Dammit! this is just bad design for start a conversation.
I almost...
I use a quad at top and a dual at the floor on my case. I think you could do the same modding your case a little.
EDIT: I just noticed your case is shorter.
I would try a triple at front and a...
I couldn't find the MCR420 in stock, my first choice, when I bought my new rad and choose the new Coolrad based on the latest reviews. check that one two for low speed fans.
I check all your links and only 3 of them have similar problems, leaking after a long time of use.
2 are TC, one is XSPC.
Thanks for all replies, I just bought a coolgate quad from PPCs.
I'll...

I almost forgot, now I need a new Rad, since I don't want to spend an arm and leg on another Rad I think I'll buy a Swiftech Quad MCR.

Hey everybody, I've been reading the forum for long time.

I'm sorry for your mistake, I'm sure you will never do it again.
I just bought a 6970 and EK block. If you need any help PM'me, I live in Brasilia.
I think everybody forgot the electric bill at the end of the month.
In brazil it is really a pain to check my computer responds for half of my electric bill. I think that in one year I'll save the...
