I am looking for someone who has some knowledge. I have a pair of Koolance VID-205-L06 (Link) which fit several 78 and 79 series cards. I am looking at a 9600 GT SLI and wanted to use my existing blocks but no one can tell me if the core/memory/holes configuration is the same. If anyone has an idea of what 78 or 79 series water block will work on a 9600 GT I would appreciate the help. And no I will not expect anyone the have a definitive answer, but if one comes along, many thanks!

i think the caps in the rear will get in the way.

The holes are in the same order and spacing, as the 68/ 79/ 96 series all have the same mounting holes. My 9600gt fits the same Zalman vf900 that my 7900gs did, as well as all the 6 series cards.
