Anyone watercooling a HD5870 yet?
I've got a Fuzion, just wondering if the holes use the standard mounting ATI holes or if they are different this generation?
Thanks!

Thanks Eddy! I was just hoping I could use my Fuzion GPU block for now. Looks like I can... Full cover would be nice in the future.

I hope we don't pressure manufacturers to rush a product. I'd much prefer to wait a few weeks for a higher quality and more thoroughly tested product. Now if they can accomplish that right off the bat, kudos to them. Waiting for new stuff is about half the fun anyways.

After so many gpu blocks Eddy has gained a lot of experience, so new blocks come faster...

Well yea, but the final release of the GPU card does help. That way you know there aren't any surprises.

Looks like the Maze4 will be able to be used as well.
