Question, does anyone know if any of the existing GPU blocks can be shoe-horned onto an HD2900XT?
Thought as much.Jokester said:Maze 5s fit on them and presumably other core only coolers will fit if they have a raised centre to fit in between the shim. Full cover blocks won't likely fit because the RAM is probably in a different place plus other components like the voltage regulators. Also to complicate matters the RAM is on both sides of the card.
The mounting holes are the same as previous generations (at least the 4 corners holes).

Im tempted to get one and put it on its own loop, since I have the space and most of the hardware. Providing a 120.1 rad will be sufficient, and should be.
Only thing putting me off buying one is the reported noise, its a good card for the money....I shall ponder a bit more.
