So I've been looking for awhile now and even though my card is "outdated" its still holding up to what I use it for. I've been looking for a waterblock for it and happen to run across the Alphacool NexXxoS GPX - ATI R9 270 M06. Now the dumb question I have is since I haven't ever watercooled a vga would this work for a 2gb version of the card not the 4gb version. Yes I realize it's not the brightest question probably just outright dumb but I have looked at a 4gb model and it doesn't look externally any different. Is there any difference on the internal if anyone knows.

That's a nice answer but doesn't answer the question if theres a physical difference in the 2gb model to the 4gb model without the coil system. Yes the alphacool model that is built for the Asus 270x says 4gb model.

if you're hesitate you can look for universal blocks such as EK VGA supremacy and EK Thermosphere, They perform better than Nexxxos on low flow rate pump such as XSPC Ion or Swiftech H220, what water cooling setup you have now?

I have a d5 photon 1200lph doubt I have to worry about the low flow. I've looked at the ek GPU blocks but have always worried about the rest of the card, which is why I'm leaning with a full vga block. Another thing about the ek GPU blocks is just how they would look when you tube it up. I've never really seen any and when they say have thermal pads on other parts that also sways me.
