EK Fullcover for GTX 285 launched

[Wiggy McShades]

will this fit the 55nm gtx 260 cards with a different VRM sink?

I'm planning to sli 2 GTX 285 with 2 EK block of course. I was wondering, is it enough if I were to have a feser 360 cooling it with a i7 920 at 4.0ghz using a mcp655 pump?...

I'm guessing it will, but it may depend on how high you need to set your Vcore and other voltages to get to 4GHz. The 285s also seem to run cooler than the older models. I'm not saying it will be optimal, but it's worth a shot. You may need higher RPM fans on the radiator, and you'll also want to have good airflow in your case.

Pretty sure the answer to that is "No," if you're talking about the EK GTX 285 Full Cover water block.
