[Doc_Scorpion]

Hey fellas,

I recently wrote up the guys the EK WaterBlocks and asked them to consider making a fullblock for the 7970 HD Matrix Series.

This is what came out:

Dear Thomas,

Spread it among your fellow Matrix users J

Dear Sirs,



according to your website, you have no plans on designing and distributing a fullblock watercooling solution for the ASUS 7970 HD Matrix (Platinum) graphics card.

Is this already a final statement? There is an actually pretty high number of owners of this card that are looking for a fullblock solution for exactly this model (including myself).

Since you have already created custom solutions for the MSI R 7970 Lightning and the ASUS HD7970-DC2-3GD5 Radeon HD 7970, I wonder if it would be too far of a stretch to create a fullblock solution for the ASUS 7970 HD Matrix Platinum, especially because the board design only marginally deviates from that of the DC2 you already designed.



I am more than sure that there is a substantial amount of people who would buy a fullblock solution for this card (please cross reference this statement with known forums) since it has, by now, received a certain notoriety.



In the name of all watercooling Matrix Platinum owners, I sincerely hope you reconsider the decision of not providing a cooling solution for this model.

I am convinced that there is serious sales potential for fullblock for this card.



Best regards



Thomas

FINALLY!!!!!

Was about to actually. My main interest is the VRM Cooling potential, these ones have custom sinks for the VRMs and Memory Modules. I unfortunately haven't found anything that will monitor them, HWINFO can't and GPUTweak doesn't provide that info which is a shame as I'd definitely like to know what they are sitting at.

I'm sure the temperature change will be noticeable, more heat sinks and watercooling is from what I've seem more efficient. The reports on the ROG boards here of people watercooling them are promising!

I have a MATRIX HD 7970 Platinum and I be looking for some new cooling with less noise.

Let me know when you have something - water or passive I dont care - aslong its more silent than now

look at ekwb.com and see if they have it.
since this tread is a year old there might have come out one.
