Any plans to release one of these, and any timescale?

Mid next week the aquagratix for HD5870 cards will be available for 69.90 EUR (~86.50 USD w/o VAT).

A few facts:

- electrolytic copper base
- slotted(?) structure above the GPU
- special polish for the GPU and RAM surface
- spacers for mounting
- stainless steel cover with laser engraving
- plexiglas connection terminal with G1/4" threads in both directions

And two CAD pics:

Thanks Shoggy.

I'm considering (yet another) upgrade, now that the new Corsair case is available.

Would like to go water on the motherboard though...

You wouldn't happen to know if any of the blocks would do NB and SB on an Asus M3A79-T Deluxe?

Does this allow you to connect fittings to both sides of the water block. I have two 4870 X2 blocks at the moment and it's a real pain that you can only connect fitting on one side. Also can they be pre-ordered?

Seems like, yes, the design looks similar to the single pcb gtx295 block which has "above and below" fittings in a plexi block.

My two arrived today, and I can confirm that you can install fittings on both sides of the water block.

Cheers, Mark.
