Well, I need something very efficient, as I will be hard modding some of my video cards

Tidewater hasn't exactly gotten the best reviews with other equipment. I'd stick to good old air, specifically the vf900.

Give it a go though and if it doesnt pan out Ebay always has a buyer.
It just looks kinda cheesy and thats why I'm kinda sketchy on trusting it. Nuclearcrap got one just before his 7900GT KO got fried so I dono how well it worked, but lol.. The fact that it fried might speek for it self.

But I do know its much bigger than it apears in pictures, so be prepared to make room..
There is someone here that said it was half-way decent.....I think I would just go with the best air cooling you can find for it....

No I fried it because I was using the multimeter wrong and thus sending a million volts to my memory. I achieved 730+Mhz core with that thing on 1.55V and only around 50C (in summer) under stress test. I've been using the same Tide Water on my X1900GT and now this BFG 7900GT, although this BFG sucks at overclocking.
