Hi...looking for graphics card hd 7950 which uses a reference HD 7970 PCB with 8 + 6 pin power connectors.
Because i want watercooled card...want fit Graphics Card Full Cover Block.
Any input would be hugely appreciated!
 
MSI R7950 OC V2, and I believe HIS7950 Iceq2 are all based off the 7970pcb, however some of the newer Sapphire vapor X are 8pin + 8pin so you may need to double check if the capacitors are the same to fit a 7970 block.
 
I'm not totally sure but the Gigabyte Windforce 3x 7950 I got yesterday from OCuK has 8 + 6 pin connectors and it would seem to be a 7970 pcb when I compare it to the pcb of a reference VTX3d 7950. It's the 'rev 2' board and comes at 1000mhz even though OCuK advertise it at 900mhz and is voltage locked at 1.25.
 
^What's the model number of your Gigabyte card?

V2 is hard to find these days and the vapour-x uses a non ref board. EK don't make anything to fit it and I don't know of anyone else that does.
The IceQ x2 is really the only option afaik.

You could get a ref 7950 pcb and a suitable block though.
