    Well...I'm not going to argue that ;-)

    We did all we could to reduce weight...and so you end up with this shape. 1.80 lbs for the block...

    Well, probably shape is another indirect pointer that having two of 590 cards with such blocks greatly increases user's e-peenuz size
    Though hmm, two .. it's in some hentai-ish/tentacle-ish way

    Lol I was just thinking the same thing... Especially if you have a inverted TJ07 with the see-through acrylic roof mod!

    User : "MOAR E-PEEN IS REQUIRED!!!"
    DD : "Try out our new blocks! Especially de-signed for those looking for more E-Peen on their E-Peen cards!"
    Viewer : "Dude... you have 2x penises in your case... are you trying to say something?"



    ...but on positive note - it's lightweight & you won't see the "E-Peen" on a normal ATX case

    Aye, if blocks at least distantly are similar to their gtx480 counterparts in skinneelab test, then DD delivered least flow resistance while still good cooling despite simplistic inner design. Though imho potential buyers of such (or even two of such) gpus have no problems with flow even with much more resistive blocks, most probably they have more then enough funds to not skimp on powerful pumps setup as well, eg. dual pumps per loop and alike.
    To get rid of this .. distinctive shape one needs to move inlets elsewhere, eg. in center, but that probably will increase resistance of block a bit.

    I keep scratching my head over this design and why..OMG...why. Is it when you put a condom on a block itself becomes life-time leak proof?
    If that was the case, at least we would be getting some innovation in wc field.

    Still it will sell good IMO. Two girls here already want one. Just need a spec. list first.

    +1 that untill it was pointed out, i didn't notice, and +1 it's hard to forget. I'm guessing in similar way no-one @DD didn't notice it initially. Imho it WILL hurt sales

    Scheisse. No I m getting worried over this, since I was first to notice.
    I m going out clubbing tonight with some hot chicks to forget this.

    No one is block(ing) me tonight!

    @ Tacklebery - I did see it before it was posted here - couldn't NOT point it when it was linked on here

    Well it's only the internal groves that look like a penis... if it wasn't smoked Acrylis most wouldn't see it?

    I'm a woman, I'm meant to spot these "manly dangly" things :P

    I'm starting to wish I'd held out for a GTX590 though... I only just recently bought my GTX580, and to kick me further, EK brought out a bloody block revision which is significantly cooler than the 1 I've bought :'( :cry:

    Unfortunately with cooling this good, you're bound to end up blue balled. Oh gawd...get out

    I have to say though, from the pure looks of it, the DD 590 block looks a lot less restrictive than the EK and Koolance blocks
    But that might not mean anything (and I am probably wrong anyway), it's just the first thing that hit my mind when I saw it - except for the "natural" looks

    That Danger den 590 Block looks badass ! The cool thing with Danger Den is most of the time they will make a custom colored top if you call. For a price of course. This helps for alot of custom mods.

    .....ROFLMAO

    Why is it that all I can think of with regards to that comments is condoms?

    Tackleberry - your condom talk has stuck in my brain now!

    ...if I get blue acrylic will it be extra durable?

    ...will red give "added" results?

    Sorry - I need to grow up!!! Filthy mind!!!

    lol - you all are hilarious!

    We could offer a smoked/black/colored top that is more the shape of the card to help with hiding the, um, copper shape. The acrylic or delrin is lightweight so that's not an issue.

    just wait till some one get "artistic" with a dremel and engraving bit on the plexi i can see the results being quite graphic/amusing

    I can also see white coolant being used...

    I want 1 for lol pics now (doing the obvious holding it the right way for maximum lol effect), then I can have my "e-peen" as a lady, but then I need to buy a GTX590... and sell my GTX580 with the block.... (not that it's even had the block mounted or used yet!)

    Hmmm...well for those that want, we can make the block a lot stiffer by adding some ribs to the acrylic.
