Glad to see you here...

I know that the card will weigh a lot.
To keep the card from tiliting to one side or the other I plan on making the block go all the way down, and touch the AGP slot.
This should keep it from rocking too much.
I will also secure the card at the back more then just the 1 screw.

I am using a SK8N, and there are no components higher then the AGP slot with-in one inch.

That image of your radeon, acutualy shows what I am thinking as an alternative for splitting the flow. (But at the top of the card, and using 90degree connectors)

Does anyone know where I can get Festo connectors in the U.S.?

I plan on doing a dual loop configuration, cooling the CPU and GPU.
I am not sure how much space I will have, so I may try two smaller pumps rather then 1 large pump.
