There is a self-contained watercooling system for graphics cards. But ATM they're with GTX 580's.

Why do you feel the need to liquid cool 550s?

There really isn't anything though you could try modding something like an H50 to fit.

look at something like the Swiftech Edge HD Kits. The offer a more foolproof water loop that is still customize-able enough to run the CPU and the GPUs off the one loop. Of course you will need to buy GPU blocks.

CoolIt made some for GPUs, but they stopped designing the interposer plates for the units that they did sell.

Yeah and I have been looking at Nvidia blocks lately for my next card...not a lot out there for 550 that I can tell. Mainly cause they have a lower TDP and thus don't run very hot.

Definitely nothing "universal" like with the CPU coolers. Or relatively universal anyway.

Thing is Water cooling is only idiot proof when you get the all in one kits for the CPU doing the rest is really getting into the area I am in. All though I want to get every thing under water I have a complex loop just for the CPU.

tehy say they will have more models soon?

I love it. Soon could be so far down the road that it would be impractical to get one! By then you would have a out dated video card not worth the thing in the first place. LOL so funny, I just love when they say shit like this. :roll:
