Ok, i'm looking for good block for my gpu, i was planning on ordering dtek's WW. so i'm wondering if that chipset/gpu block they show is any good, and if it will fit a 9800. Otherwise i'm looking towards the DD maze4 GPU block. what do you guys think? Better to go with the swifty? Or anyone around here letting go of some custom made blocks?

well i can only tell you about the one i have. its a swiftech mcw50t. comes with an 80w tec. fits on my 9800np quite nicely with plenty of room for ramsinks. also allowed for a considerable overclock. went from 430 max on air to 475. Also i hear the maze4-1 is a good competitor to the mcw50t. only thing is you have to do your own condensation proofing on it. Although the 4-1 comes with neoprene, the mcw50t has it already setup for you to just put on the gpu and its already condensation proofed (just need some dielectric grease).

The Dtek doesn't say what cards it fits, but I would guess that it would. Any of the blocks should work nicely if you get them to fit.

I have a DD Maze 4 GPU block on my ATI 9800 Pro nad I'm happy with it. I can't really compare to any other blocks because this is my first W/C'd rig. I also want to point out the Danger Den has amazing tech support.

I know the Swiftech SCW50 will fit

i think i'm going for the DD block, 1/2 inch barbs and all, will work right into my system and i hear it has excellent flow rates. that is a good thing. As for DD's tech support, i sure hope i will not be needing that to install a gpu block :D. Seriously though, i've ordered from DD many times, and allways been happy with the service and shipping times.


thanx guys,
