7970 Lightning, worth the premium?

I don't think so no, look at a tear down of the card it has a full cover heatsink that you would be able to leave on with a gpu block. Much like how the old gtx4x0 cards were.

Uh-huh. Geo is the Greek word for "Earth".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geothermal_heat_pump

A geothermal heat pump, ground source heat pump (GSHP), or ground heat pump[1] is a central heating and/or cooling system that pumps heat to or from the ground.

Not talking about using geothermal power, something completely different.

Thank you for contacting us.

The aforementioned blocks will be available in copper acetal and nickel acetal only.
The geometry and size of top is too complex, hence plexi tops are likely to crack putting us in akward situations afterwards.

I always LOL when Gregor calls me Mr.Mayukh :p
 
Sweet :D

Hopefully should be back up and running tomorrow, its been a long 10 days or so without a machine. Really excited about these blocks coming out. I'm estimating a price of around £85 for the copper acetal, £90 for the nickel acetal as these LTG blocks are huge!!
