[jimmyz]

will someone with a card please tell us if the mounting pattern is going to work with waterblocks currently on the market??? they look very similar but without having one it is impossible to know for sure.

thanks for the info denny and hope the new driver brings even better results.you know we appreciate your efforts and sharing your results with us. keep up the good work.

That might only be telling that ATi has optimised heavily 3dmark and nothing else, so how about real games? There's already been too much new drivers which improve only 3dmark-performance...

Since you don't have a card, or even a friend with a card in hands, and there are no public REAL reviews with game benchmarks, how can you say that ?

Just wait some more days

hm, any word on whether old full cover blocks will work too (if possible, i mean its not giving out tech spechs or anything)? not bothering about the mosfets, just the ram. see quote on ek x18/1900 waterblocks.
