well, the swiftech gpu block design seems to be one of the least flow resistance ones. but then you are stuck with their sucky hose clamping method.

anyway. one can hardly judge from the non-plexi topped pix; as u are almost clueless as to how it is designed internally.

what everyone seems to be forgetting:

u want form or function?
i can cool my gforce3ti500 oc 270/590 almost passively with a large retired cpu heatsink + fan at 5V. temps are 40°C when gaming. i don't know however if that method would work for the ti4600 and 9700 hotshots. worth a try before killing some flow and spending some $.
