Hi everyone

My friend is in a little bit of a pickle. He really wants the Lian-Li PC V1000 PLUS case. However he has a ASUS sli premium motherboard and is worried about the chipset as it has a heatpipe which wont work if he gets the case. He has water cooling so was thinking of getting the Swiftech MCW30 Chipset Waterblock from here. He has 2 6800GT's in SLI and is worried that the cards will be in the way. If anyone has any suggestions or any different blocks that would be great :D

Many thanks

The heatpipe wont work because heat rises... and the chipset will be above so the heat will have to go down. So his temperatures will sky rocket thats why it wont work. :(
