Hey guys, So I have in total 3 graphics cards in my system 2 x GTX660 which I want to use EK bridge edition water blocks with and a GTX640.
The play is to use a 2- way SLI block on the 2 x 660 and then a single on the 640 and link the 2.
The reason for this is the GPU chips are not parallel to each other they are offset but about 8mm or so.
Would it be possible to join the 2 some how?

In effect I have this

|-|-l
A B C

The link between B & C needs to be able to flex a little or the ability to adjust offset?

EDIT:

I was thinking of using Bits power Multi link system but rather than using the crystal tubes use tygon in place, but I don't know how it would hold out?

Tbh the easiest way may be some angle fittings and regular tubing, perhaps a couple of the dual 45/90 degree rotaries, as they can adjust from 0-90 degrees.
 
I did think of that but from card B to C are adjecent slots meaning the distance between them is minimal, I think thats 40mm, take some away for the size of the block I think leaves me around 35ish mm
 
hmm sounds like its awkwardly positioned, got any pics of the cards installed to show the clear difference?
 
Thanks for the input.
I have taken a picture and tried to draw over it to help show the layout.

The red lines are were the GPU cores are situated and the blue lines are where tubes/links would effectivley need to go.

I cannot use full cover blocks since they are almost impossible to get ahold of in the UK for the 660 (non TI) and they don't exsist at all for the 640.
As a result I am resorting to EK bridge edition VGA supreme blocks.
