    Amen trig! I just wish other companies would do the same however if any of them do it they charge silly amounts, the waterblocks cost ~£60 so it should be at most £80 more its not normally the case...

    I think ill just have todo it myself as per usual .

    Yeah, same.

    Really it shouldn't cost £80 more, as they don't have to provide an air cooler. It seems silly to me that I can by a graphics card with an air cooler that I don't want or need, and then buy a water block and it still ends up cheaper than someone selling me the GPU with waterblock already attached.

    ek waterblock for a 7970 .Price:£ 82.95 so your going to be looking at £490-£525 for the card..
    part of that price will be to compensate for increased speed and return rate ..still way to much for a card ..
    now if they banged it out at £375-£400 i'd think about it ..
