just curious on this at the moment, i have an Asus 5850 DirectCU for one of my machines, and will be water cooling it, the only full covre block available is the EK Asus v2 one, which has had a few issues with dodgy nickel plating !

I am considering swapping it for maybe a 5870, but, i have a couple of requirements

1. Full cover water block available for it
2. single slot fitment - because i need to make use of the PCIex1 slot that will be freed up by using a full cover slim block, so, the back connectors must not spread over 2 slots !


Anyone got any ideas/recommendations ?
