Uh Oh, I just had another thought. I wonder how painfully expensive watercooling one of these beasts might be? Might take its own rad, pump, fans, and the block for it would be a nightmare.

The 1st Factory (EVGA) block I saw for one of those 9800GX2's was Aluminum, and was huge. I think they made it out of Al to save weight to keep from breaking off the poor PCI-e port hanging on for dear life. Of course Aluminum is useless in a loop containing Cu or brass, so that was a non-starter from the get go. Can anyone imagine what a block like that would weigh in Cu? It would be like 4 pounds or some rediculous number! Becasue the GPU's were facing each other, the cards were sandwitched around the big huge massively thick block. I did see a Danger Den Cu block but like I said, I would hate to see what it weighed. It's full cover for the 9800GX2 only. Double sided full cover block only.


If nVidia does go ahead and do this (which I seriously hope they don't), it would be wise to situate the GPU's on the outside so block mounting would be easier. Of course I hate to even give them any ideas for somerthing that's a bad idea to begin with.
