The All In Wonders don't seem to have any mounting holes, so has anybody used watercooling on one?

I've got AS thermal adhesive, and am curious if this is strong enough for a water block under pressure...

In all honesty why bother? they hardly run hot, and you wont be able to oc it much anyway. As for AS thermal adhesive that will hold it easily, but just in case leave a corner uncovered just in case you ever want to remove it.

This one does run a bit hot, and I'm trying to zap any trace of noise out of this case. Plus, have you seen the puny heat sink in those things?

That's ok though, I ended up getting the Arctic Cooling VGA Silencer Rev 2. Supposed to be AIW compatible and totally silent. We'll see....

I have heard very good reviews about that Artic Cooling VGA silencer... let us know how you like it when you get it. I ordered one a while back but it was OOS.... never got around to ordering it again...

Came today (WOW!).

DOES NOT FIT MY CARD!!!! :|

Hangs too low, and the endplates don't match the jacks on the card. Sigh.

Now the decision is whether to epoxy the stock ATI cooler back on or go to Fry's and buy a new card. :(

I went back to the SVC website to read the description again, and it only lists 9700's and up. I could have SWORN there were no specific models listed there. :(
