I'm about to buy a 4870x2. Now I'm planning to buy a waterblock for them probably one of the EK ones. I know for a fact EK makes mosfet waterblocks which everybody knows tend to get really hot. Which one of them should i get? Or what can I use to cool down the VRM's. i would really appreciate if somebody could help me on this one. It doesn't matter if its heatsink or waterblock. I'm just looking to cool this parts of the video card.
Thanks in advance.

Emotional Post-it Note

Yes, this would be my recommendation, in particular. Very popular and widely used. Have not heard any explicitly poor things said about it. I should add that Syrillian has the same water block on his 4870 x2's. You may want to drop him a PM for his take on the matter.

EDIT: I suppose I should also mention that Syrillian's 4870 x2's are currently not functioning. Doesn't seem to be related to the water blocks, however.

Hi.

The EK full-coverage block and the included "L" brackets (that serve as Sinks) are all that you will need, although airflow over the "L" brackets will still be needed.

There was an issue with the block shorting out one of the cards, but that issue was resolved and I was able to move on to new and improved issues (Drivers) that have now also been remedied.
