Yeah, the heatpipe looks nice but actually is a piece of junk cooling-wise.
Even with the washers in place and the swiftech block mounted onto the heatpipe assembly NB temps are still crap.
I will await Bitpower's new NB/SB block so i don't have to mess with small stick on heatsinks.

Ppcs will have it in 10days
I don't know mate but bitspower seem to have some trouble releasing those blocks.
A while ago they annouced their 780I nb/sb block but afaik it's still not available.
Vincent from bitspower said the first week of oct the block will be available, let's hope he's right.
Oh, and don't expect it to be cheap either, saw the asus 790i block listed at a shop here in the Netherlands for a whopping €109,-
