    Not that I have anything against the DangerDen but I was just wondering if anybody had any other suggestions, or if anybody knows of anything better...

    I know Little River are producing one based on the Cascade :D , but it is not ready yet :(

    No bother mate :lol: not one of your days?

    think I have seen that Innovatek GPU block you mentioned in the other thread, any ideas on its performance?

    Also

    anybody know anything about the SilverProp Fusion GPU blocks?

    The innovatek block will be designed for 8mm ID tubing. If you're putting it on you main loop I'd say this is a bad match with your other kit (1/2" iirc). On the other hand if you were doing a second loop so as to leave the CPU cooling undiminished, it might be fine. (Though there are other options if you are going that way.

    Yup, I know about the Fusion by Silverprop. Here's a pic:

    ...and that's where my knowledge ends... Don't know who sells it, or for how much... Start Googling... :D

    I personally think you could have done these two threads as one, seeing as there are so many which are interchangeable by simply changing the mounting bracket but here's a few new ones I'll be testing shortly before deciding whether to stock them... :naughty:

    [​IMG]

    AlphaCool ATi (also comes in nVidia and northbridge flavours)
    Also known as the "NexXxoS cool body" :D

    [​IMG]

    Cape GP 42-X2 (again, different clamps for ATi, nV & NB - also available in red & blue)

    [​IMG]

    Go-Cooling IceRex ATi (also comes in nVidia and northbridge flavours)

    [​IMG]

    Xice Xgk GPU (again, different clamps for ATi & nV)


    [​IMG]

    TwinPlex GPU (different clamps for ... etc., etc.)

    :)

    I have a page with a few variations on these, tucked away here

    It's a pity those DD GPU blocks don't come with an acrylic top like their CPU block does. The inside is actually very nice to look at with those semi-circular fins.

    Maybe if GTA got enough interest, he might produce an acrylic topped version of his (if DD don't first)...
    Worth a thought.

    [Edit] The original thread I saw had pictures but they're gone now - I'm sure it was clear topped.

    Still working on it - I have some but not all (and not the NF7 one yet), will try and find out this week.
    The prices I do have look good though. :)

    Cheers guys.
