I have been looking around the net trying to find a good waterblock for a 6600GT, does anyone have any recomendations?

Thank you.
 
the dangerden maze4 fits fine. It is cheap at www.criticool.com but it is the old version instead of the new brass and whatever other new top they have on them. That is all i know that will fit. The nvsilencer 6 is "out" but no stores have it yet. It looks good though and should be quiet and keep the card cool.
 
I am working up a new case, and due to the constraints of space I can't use air cooling. When I get closer to accually building the case I will have a log going.

I have one other question about watercooling. Does it hurt the flow to use 90 degree elbows, I want to use them to make the tubing flow the way I want and make everything look neat. I don't care for the way most of the wc setups look. Not saying anything bad they just look a little "busy" to me.

I saw an Alienware on The Screen Savers a long while back (when the show was worth watching) and the way they had it set up looked very clean. But I wasn't sure how well the system accually worked.

Thank you.
 
90 degree elbows do hurt the flow quite a bit, you could always go with one of the european low flow systems, in which elbows dont have as much negative effect. They also use much smaller tubing which might be better for you since you dont like things "busy".

Do a search for a thread called "My super clean watercooling rig" or something like that by Liquid_Cooled (or something like that lol). After looking at his case I dont think you will ever be able to call a 1/2" watercooling rig as being too busy :) Nicest WC setup I have ever seen, period.

Thanks. I don't have access to a machine shop here nor the area to tackle a project that I have in mine. I will probably just design the thing in autocad or something like that and take it to a machine shop where they can cut everything perfectly.
