Exactly as title say, I need a waterblock fr my 7900GT. DD blocks, swiftech, other brands? Would like to hear from people that have had personal experiences with the blocks they are recommending. Thanks!
 
I'll be using both, the MCW60 for the bottom 7900 as the fittings are on the otherside to prevent interfearance with PCI card above it. The Maze 4 LP is being use on the top 7900, both are great blocks however the MCW60 interior looks like it has alot more surface area.
 
Yeah I was looking at the MCW60 but I also wanted opinions on the dangerden blocks. Thanks for your suggestion!
 
dont get a stasis thermal. my block started leaking. i emailed support and got a fast response saying they would send me a new block plus a prepaid shipping label to return the bad one...3+ weeks later I have yet to see a new block in my hand. i am losing my patience quickly.


but other than the bad support the block did have some very good temps and allowed me to overclock a good amount more than air cooling.
 
I need to put my order in shortly so I need to decide what I want. Any more suggestions? What DangerDen block is the best?
 
I haven't had experience watercooling nvidia cards, but I have very strong faith in the Maze4 line of GPU blocks...they've never failed me. However, (not having used them) I've seen great things from many swifty blocks (both cpu and gpu) and they tend to offer less flow restriction, and may end up performing better if you don't have a strong pump.

Good move, Swiftech has some nice copper ramsinks available...but whether you went with those or another make, you should have a good time.
 
Yeah I placed my order a little bit ago from frozencpu.
My watercooling stuff is getting here tomorrow and I wanted the gpu block here tomorrow when the setup gets here so I got it shipping overnight heh. they were the cheapest for overnight. Some wanted like 35$, they were less then $25. Plus they got same day shipping as long as order is placed before 6PM. I remembered I ordered my Hiper Modular PSU from them at about 5:58 and the order went through at about 6:03 and they still shipped it out that night and I received it the next morning so I got trust in them when I need something the next day!

Nice, talk about speed...always good to see. i've got the option to order from FCPU in canada, but in my case...it'd be fricken customs slowing down my shipment. :(
