Personally, I always thought that
swifty's GPU mounting method to be pretty smart. I mean if a person needed to adapt the block they could simply purchase a piece of 1/16" Alum and make a braket (dremel required of course).
One thing though, if you do happen to make a GPU block and are open to requests, please make it tall enough to clear the tall ram sinks that are being used these days. I had to remove the stock ram sink from my FX5950 to fit my Maze4 GPU and I was like WTF, don't these companies use their own products???
Then there is the potenial added benifit of allowing the end user to turn the block to 3, 6 or 9 o'clock for ease of mounting/routing. I know I am pushing it's just your the Lingenfelter of water blocks, and I wanna see a Storm GPU.
