My waterblock for my video card from DangerDen wont fit on my ATI 64DDR card.There are no holes on the card to put the nylon bolts through.Has anyone else tried this or anyone have any suggestions on what to do?I am going to cool my cpu,my chipset and my video card.I have an Eheim 1250 pump and 1/2" fittings on everything and I'll run it to my cpu last.Any suggestions on how or what is the best setup would be appreciated as this is my first water cooling endeavor.I also got a pelt but am going to get the water figured out and running first before I try and seal everything for condensation.Also will a 465w Enermax power all this(not the pelt I'll add a psu for that) and my 2 cdroms 2 120mm fans,5 80mm fansHD cooler,30 gig HD,and 2 floppies?

Yeah, that PSU will easily power it...as for the waterblock, you might just have to try secure it with epoxy and hope it sticks...

it will hold with AS epoxy, almost too good in fact. I find though that you can't mount it vertically on the card, it has to go horizontally. Make sure that you glue it on there with enough space to clear the AGP slot, you should have plent of room.

I want to do the same thing with an ATI 8500, my less-permanent plan was to use AS2 without epoxy, using a plastic C-clamp to hold it together. That way if your going use a peltier you get some pressure on it, which is recommended for them to function at full potential. Also, if you peltier don't forget to put some insulation on the bottom and dielectric grease on the top to stop condensation from ruining the card. I was going to spray it with techspray AR after taping off where the heatsink goes on the GPU and RAM as well as the AGP pins.
