    I would just be happy for a standardized mounting system.

    I'd only buy one if I couldn't find a manufacturer who pre-fitted the HSF I actually wanted.

    That's true, but then I suppose someone would go out of business if we could just use the same water block over and over instead of having to buy new ones! That's one reason I suppose why I tend to splurge ££££££ on a good card and block so I can keep them for as long as possible. At least with CPU blocks things are a little more permanent.

    This issue wouldn't be one if gfx card manufacturers would equip their card with good coolers even if it would make the cards 10 bucks more expensive (I'd even shell out 20 more - heck, I do anyway, as I a rather wait for something like a Vapor X cooled Radeon or a MSI Twin Frozr than get a stock cooled quasi jet engine).
