Apart from Koolance (this: http://www.koolance.com/water-cooling/product_info.php?currency=GBP&product_id=818) does anyone know of any other GTX 275 water blocks on the market?
Any info would be gratefully received

The spammy spammer fails lol - I'm sure all of his posts will be gone soon (I have reported one of them and I'm sure I saw a couple of their posts disappear).

Anyway, I think that if you wait a while, you'll find that more blocks gradually start to appear. The GTX275 is a fairly new card so give it time and you'll see more blocks for them.

EDIT: Excellent job, mods, it's gone already

Did I miss something here? Sorry Dan but I've not been on the forum for a bit. Thanks for your reply. I've been told that there is an EK one available very soon but its only compatible with the Palit or Gainward card (I don't know where that leaves my stock cooler card). As you say it looks like I'll have to wait or maybe try this cheaper alternative:

I'm tempted by the Arctic Cooling solution as my card gets close to 90c after a hefty session of Crysis. Thats even in my well cooled Antec 902

If you call missing a spammer getting all of their posts deleted in about 5 minutes something, then you missing something. Otherwise, you haven't missed too much (although the forums have been great fun since the very start).

I'd advise you to get the Arctic cooling air cooler for now if you're worried about temps and then upgrade to the wet stuff when a better range of blocks is available.

I'm glad your all keeping those damn spamming bast*rds at bay. I've taken your advice this morning Dan and I've ordered the AC Extreme cooler. Hopefully it should turn up by Wednesday - damn Bank holidays


Just an update on the AC Extreme cooler. I've got it fitted to my GTX 275 and what a difference I've gone from 41c idle and 91c load (using FurMark test) on the stock Nvidia cooler to 33c idle and 57c load with the AC Extreme cooler. I didn't use the MX2 tim that was pre-applied as it didn't seem to cover enough of the gpu heat sink - maybe its just me. Don't get me wrong, I think that the AC MX2 tim is very good as past results have shown me, so instead I used my trusty Arctic Silver 5. I had some other issues fitting the cooler, namely I had to butcher, sorry I meant modify the Ram/NVIVO2 heat sink and I used mainly Scythe VGA Chip Heat sinks which I had from an unused project. The ones supplied weren't the best at sticking even after I spent ages preparing the ram and vrm surfaces.

Please excuse the quality of the pics as I had to use my camera phone (I can't find my digital camera at the moment)

This bit marked here was to cause me a slight problem with the NVIVO2 heat sink as it stuck out too high from the pcb:





And this is what I had to do with a drill and small file (all I had to hand at the time - its hidden from sight any way by the cooler).



Apart from what I've said its a great cooler and well recommended
