Decided to look into a full water cooled setup for my rig. Researching the various case / radiator / res / pump / etc. options has been an interesting endeavor, especially since I've never done a WC'd setup before.

Now that I'm trying to build a parts list, the biggest problem I'm having is finding a source for a block for my 6970. I've got a 6990 and 6970 in CF that I'll need to put in the loop. The 6990 seems to be available from at least two vendors in the US that have stock, my card is listed in the compatibility list.

I've only been able to find one source (in stock) for the 6970 blocks, and it specifically lists my card as non-compatible.

The card I have: 100311SR

Where can I find these? Are my cards really that out dated? Have I missed the boat?

Any insight would be appreciated. :D
 

Thanks for the reply, nightwalker. I took a look, but the thread you linked is only speaking to the model of the card, not actually where one might find a water block. It's a good reference for anyone who isn't sure which model card they have.

As I mentioned, I've got the v1 / rev1 style card, which is adding to the difficulty in locating a block.
 
I know Danger Den could help you out if you knew for sure which revision you have, but their blocks aren't the best performers.
