Hello there,
I've been an ATI/AMD guy for a long time. Well, lemme preface this with, this isn't a thread about flaming anyone or anything, I just need some answers.
So, since it's hard to get any aftermarket waterblocks for AMD and the only waterblocks really being made are for the flagship AMD cards (7970), is it easier to match up waterblocks on the Nvidia side?
As far as I'm aware (and I could be wrong), Nvidia MFG's typically pump out reference-design cards. It seems that there's a bigger selection for blocks too. Assuming watercooling is the only reason I'd switch over, is it a smart move?
Thanks for any input you could provide.
