    Default Not just the GPU

    hey i was looking around trying to find some waterblocks for the vid. card i'm getting with my new comp., a 7600 and i kan't find any worth while waterblocks out there...i want one to service the ram as well as the gpu, does any one know where i might be able to find a decent one?...or one at all? and also i'm not sure but was wondering if a waterblock that fits the 7800 would prolly fit the 7600 too right?

    generally you can't find GPU blocks that cover both RAM and GPU unless it is a top of the line vid. card.

    as for the 7800 water block fitting a 7600. It MAY work, but there is a big chance that there are transistors in the way, or RAM placement may be different. You may want to do some research on the layout of the cards as well as post on several different forums to find out what others think or know.
