I do really like the Swiftech cooling equipment. I think that thay are pretty shit-hot. But I didn't get a picture (mental) of what was going on inside of the block. Have there been reviews of this one? How well does it cool? For example, I was able to drop the temps on my GF2 MX400 by 20°C just by adding the Tt BlueOrb3 Chipset cooler (HSF). If I'm going to go to the trouble to W/C my GPU as well as my CPU, I want it to beat those numbers. Otherwise, I'm getting the HSF and some RAM sinks. I was able to get my GF3 to 266MHz core, but it gradually grew less stable the hotter it got. I don't want temps to be an inhibitor.

BTW...who is Bruce? If he could make it cheap for me, I might go to the extra effort.
