Wow. Very cool the ''pre applied thermal pads'' for the HD5970. Nice block Gabe! And a replacement backplate, shorter than the stock one, delivered into the bundle, very good idea.

Do you know when (and where) this will be available for Europe?

A question about the GPUs cooling for the 5970: what is the benefit of the pin matrix? Compared with other solutions on the market for HD5970, what is the benefit of this design?

I consider to go back on a HD5970 if Fermi is not as good as I expect it. I had one (5970) with another waterblock, but swapped it for GTX295 sli because of stability issues. So... I think that you bundle for HD5970 looks very good. And some more details would be welcome

Best regards,
