Swiftech to release Full Cover for Radeon HD6970

[gabe]

Any date we will see these at retailers? I saw somewhere in this thread Jan 15. I need to place an order but am waiting until these arrive so I can buy everything I need all at once.

Yes, we expect to release the product over the week-end and start shipping by the end of next week. Here are updated images of the final product:

Wow gabe nice improvement, looks schmick buddy!!

[iggy2k]

will taking the sticker off void the warranty?

[Duniek]

with or without ?

for my guess the best will be with but not sticked in factory, just to own mount
so bare block and bare sticker in pack, maybe 3-4 diffrent stickers, also if someone want just make design and go to advertisment agency, stikcer will cost cheap even for one piece

and als i believe if ppl buy and makes liquid cooling PCs so not problem for them to stick a sticker good

sorry for english, dont have time today and I have to post it lol

[xenonstar]

released already ? dont see anything ? i think release was on weekend ?

couldn't get to it over the week-end.

The product has now been release.

direct touch VRM is better than thermal pad?

[Nickel020]

Gabe, will you be making a passive heatsink to go along with the MCW80 as well?

[gabe]

Yes substantially better, rough estimate 20C improvement

Gabe, will you be making a passive heatsink to go along with the MCW80 as well?

Yes I intend to, but I just gotta get to it..

[chas1723]

This thing looks so good it makes me want to start water cooling. I need to now start researching the components I need to make this happen

Yes, please! I will have one ordered as soon as it is released :P.

[Baenwort]

Is there any kind of estimate on when a passive sink would be available? I really like it with the Caldera system for the 4870x2 and with it dieing this weekend I just placed a order for a 6950. If you hope to have it out with in a month I think I'll hold off for the passive heatsink. If not I hope someone takes some pics and does a personal review of the full cover block soon. The CS folks over at Swiftech have sent me a lot of free parts when I've striped screws or had other issues that I'd like to stick with Swiftech.

Unfortunately, this cooler is, as far as I know, not give in Germany. And I would like them for my HAF-XXL Project

[Bodkin]

Any eta for the UK?

How thick is that cooler? Does it take up 2 slots or 1?

[Baenwort]

Anyone received one yet and are willing to brag?

I think I can get to it within a couple of weeks, then production 4 weeks. I don't see the products hitting the street for another 6 weeks.

We are shipping them to Bacata (Master distributor) this week. They should be available in europe within 2 weeks.

see above

cooler is thin (1 slot), but card takes 2 slots anyways because of the connectors.

Frozen already has them in stock I believe.

Yeah, I was just wondering because it looked really thick compared to your other waterblocks.

I don't see them in stock yet.

[Johnny87au]

hey gabe which is the official design you went for ?? The blue komodo design ?

[Zebo]

Who is stocking??? Want one but can't fine one.

[Crazy V]

Sure would like to see some of the 6970 water blocks compared.(Flow/GPU and VRM Temps) Is the warranty voided if the sticker is removed?

We shipped last week. They should have them by now or just received them.

Don't tell me you actually got a GPU within the first 3 months of release? If so, the world may be coming to an end.
