Re: Nvidia 7800 waterblocks?
Samstag, 25. Juni 2005, 03:21
these are simply only pictures and should not be used to decide whether to get a 6800 or 7800. These are serious beasts 
as some might know but to decide on pictures is what i would say a bad idea. Wait until ac have tested their water block to see whether it fits/provides enough cooling (though i doubt this would be an issue), then you can decide whether to get a 6800 or 7800 accordingly.

Err. Who said anything about using pictures to decide whether or not to get one???
The reference board design has been available for a while. Look at a picture. http://www.guru3d.com/admin/imageview.php?image=5209
The power circuitry heatsink is in a totally different place.

well neither AC nor us the members have the power of the sight, so we can only wait until the first retail boards are shipped
i´m sure AC will get their hands on a sample very soon and verify whether or not the cooler will fit the new cards
Well I hope it is sooner than later as they are shipping like crazy here in the states. I have several friends that got them over the last few days. Most are planning on using TwinPlex's because it is simple and they don't have to buy a new cooler everytime the Gods of Fate designate a new cooler board design.

Absolutely - although thats going to hammer your resale value
Theres no water in that part, and i think youd have to take the whole thing off. You'd also have to make sure theres some airflow for the voltage regulator heatsink.
Ive not got a 6800LE block but it looks like they are exactly the same as the normal one but without the voltage regulator part.
Might be a better idea to use one of those as a temporary measure, until AC make the new blocks.
I'll be very interested in how they plan to cool the memory on the rear of the card...
