Trying to build my gaming rig and of course with water cooling, only thing is i hit a snag........

So im looking at the Swiftech cooling products for my cooling:
Swiftech MCP655 12 VDC Pump Liquid Cooling System
Swiftech MCR420-QP Quadruple 120mm radiator
Swiftech APOGEE-XT Extreme Performance CPU Waterblock

Does anyone know of a compatible water block for this GPU or a Swiftech one that I just can't find or am looking over?
 
Not again :) Some just asked that question a few days ago.
You have to wait and watch and check temps, it's too soon for any company to come up with a water block for these cards......
And if they don't heat up that much, you can forget any company will come out with a waterblock for it......

With the 69XX series so close to come out, I doubt you'll get a waterblock for these cards, it's going to be like my HD5750's, the cards never heated up beyond a limit and weren't that high in specs so they never came out with a waterblock for them.

Why exactly would you spend on water cooling for a 6850? You could have spent that $60+ dollars for the cooling system on simply buying a card thats strong than any OC you'll ever get with the 6850....(6870).

Unfortunately i think alyoshka is right about water blocks for this card....not likely.
