Swiftech Komodo HD7970 Preview

bridge spacing: we are making bridges for 1.6" and 2.4" PCI spacing.

QUESTIONS FOR YOU ALL:

Noticed that some of our competitors are offering the 1-slot bracket as an option; Also, I have not seen any back-plates being offered for this card, but the question is this:

What's the consensus for these two items? you prefer optional or included in price?

Excelent job Gabe! Welldone!

...

Regarding your question:
a. I prefer to have all the extra items included in the box (bracket and backpate, etc). This way, the production of these extra items will be higher and the overall price lower! So, all these people who want the complete package will not pay a higher total price as they would if they would buy the items inividually. Not to mention the fact that many times, the availability of the blocks and backpates or brackets is not the same, meaning multiple orders and consequently increased postage fees!
b.There is at least one company producing backplates as addon to their 7970 waterblock, utilzing thermal pads for extra cooling.

Nice Job!

Regarding the Crossfire Bridges: You imply to use swiftech existing bridges or you will build new ones specific for these series of blocks?
