Once you do it though, it is a one way street.
The fact once bowed always bowed is a bit of a concern for future uses

On a GTX clealry the only way to go is a bowed block

On Fuzion...it seems to me you maybe best to leave it alone...as performance is close to bowed GTX

I will wait for niksub1 final results...dont forget if you bow the blocks to have a good backplate to protect mobo

BTW..excellent observations and creative thinking niksub1!!!!!!!!!!!
