Wanna water cool my 580 matrix

[mrDMxtreme]

title says it all, for my birthday this year i wanna go with WCing, only problem is i'll have to get creative to put the matrix under water.

suggestions on how to do it, and/or what blocks there are out there.

am considering modding the heck out of it, so let your imaginations fly

Isn't that a non-reference card?

Might be difficult to water cool.

Maybe a universal block on GPU and heatsinks?

I also want to water cool my lightnings, apparently swiftech make a universal block that has the heatsinks attached to it aswell so it kind of looks like a full cover block

yea its not a reference design, and saddly its NOT the same as the DCUII version from asus either (because i found a block for that, thought it might work, but further research showed me that it definitely wont)

Maybe a universal block on GPU and heatsinks?

yea i was thinking of that too but then don't you need air-flow over the heatsinks? i don't know if the side fan on the HAF X would be enough (i mean i do plan on OC more when its under water, since the core temps are going to be real nice) also i don't think i can just tape on a fan... that'd look dum

I wish I could tell you more than that, but I don't know. Probably some of the experienced gurus here can help you on how much air you might need.
