Alright, now, which wc blocks that fit the 3870 (please fit the 4870) are the "best". I'd be needing to go with 2 of them...
The EK 3870 blocks? The Dtek Fuzion 1, 2? Sorry, this is sort of new to me. I'd appreciate someones help. My cards are just running too hot for my liking, even with the manual fan adjustments.

Ugh, thats the last thing I want are individual memory hsf falling off =P.
What about some iandh memory hsf module thingys? And personally I'm feeling These. 2 of them. The cost isn't too important. I just really like the full block over the chip blocks. =/

Err, last time I check the PCB layout of the 4870's was totally different than the 3870s. Sorry but, your blocks aren't gonna fit

Looks like I got lucky: they were out of stock of the 3870CF blocks. Saves me shipping costs at least. =P

D-Tek just came out with their GFX2 that can be had for less than 50 bucks (jabtech and petras).
Also, there is the maze5 and the trusty MCW60. The MCW has, far and away, the least restriction. I probably will get one for mine. I like FC blocks, and have been happy with my tyee, but I think its really overkill and just to bolster the user's e-peen. Hopefully after a short while D-tek will come out with one of these (http://www.dtekcustoms.com/index.asp...ROD&ProdID=211) for the 4870. I am confident, with the success of the 4870, that they will.
