Possible water cooling setup. Will a ZM-GWB1 fit on a 6800?

Post by DryFire » Sat Dec 25, 2004 7:58 am

Well I'm looking to water cool my computer.

Does anyone know wether the zalman vga blcok will fit on my 6800? It seems like it will but I don't know for sure. Does anyone have one mounted on their's?

So far I'm planning:
An MCW-6002-64
Zalman ZM-GWB-1
7/16" ID tubing and clamps
Fedco 2-342 heater core w/ 2 120mm fans.
Maxijet-900 water pump

Loks like it's going to be about $100.

Any comments/suggestions?

I emailed Zalman wondering the same thing and they informed me that it will not fit. They are currently working on a block for that series of cards to be paired with the reserator.

There was info about this in some thread here.. Apparently the problem was that the supplied screws were too thick and didnt go thru the holes on the pcb.
