BladeRunner,

I guess the only "flaw" I can see with your design is that there is no block over the center of the backside of the GPU. I have had both Raideon and GeForce cards and BOTH of them got extremely hot on the back side of the card in a tower setup.

I only ask this because the tempretures I have seen on the back of these cards in this area usually exceeds 50° C.

Any thoughts? :shrug:
