I buy full coverage blocks for my vga cards. Actually last round I bought 3 of them

This time I just bought a single 5850 with the block for it, I bought it really early at launch, and I see no reason I cant keep it for another year or maybe 2, depending on my habbit patters and budget.

The full coverage blocks look amazing, and do a more complete job of cooling the card (so you don't need too much airflow), so they help build a quieter rig.

and I just love seeing the water path
