dangit i was hoping they didnt. well i have my tyan 9700pro and im doing some ramcooling. i have a really cool idea.

what im thinking is getting some plxy. same shape to cover the ram chips, about 3/4 - 1" thick. then i drill holes through it all to make the channel. then where the ram is i drill a hole the size and shape of the ram heatsink. and then drill 4 holes in each corner and tap, then i get a ram sink ill make from old cooler. then you silicon the edge(where counter sunk) and bolt it in with the four holes i mentiond earler. ok i know i cant type im sick and they put my on some really weird pills. heh but im gona make a cad drawing tommrow and show you what i mean.

Thank You

for a moment there I thought you were planning on direct die cooling each individual ram chip

but assuming that you're confident that you can mantain a water tight seal around the ram sinks it should be possible.

[NOTE] if you fail to seal properly around the edges of the ram and water get's underneath the BGA chip (which it can) then it'll corrode the solder balls and will kill the card.

ok the bga chips on the 9700's are 11mm square, measured with a steel ruler by eye
