Looked around and can't seem to find anything that's definitive, but is there any "stock" (no modding) cooling blocks that'll work with the EVGA GTX 570 HD; preferably a full cover block?
 
Saw over at: http://forums.evga.com/tm.aspx?m=927579&mpage=1
that apparently the EVGA GTX 570 HD diverges from the reference layout by Nvidia, which would mean just about all of the 570/580 blocks out there will probably not fit it

    Hey I know you said you preferred a full cover but definitely check out the EK VGA Supreme HF.  I have one on my original GTX 570

    I doubt you will find any full coverage blocks that will fit (unless you can find someone to custom make one for you).  If you are determined to water cool the card, I would look into a GPU-only cooling solution such as Oprah stated.

    You can try talking to Bei Fei at XS, he may be able to help you.

    Some unversal GPU blocks still being made:
     
    MCW80 (come with the G80 adaptor, which fits GTX570, also has a "better" adaptor specifically made for the GF100/GF110)
     
    210 / 220
     
    Maze5
     
    Those are some resuable universal GPU blocks. Of course, they don't cover RAM and VRMs, so you may need extra ramsinks and VRMsinks....
     
    MOS-C1 <-- covers VRM
    ZM-RHS1 <-- covers RAM
    MC21 <-- covers those long grey things next to the M.O.S.FETs [optional: because they are not actively cooled in any nVidia GF100/GF110 reference card]
     
    these are just some options to get you started, in the event that no full cover block can be sourced.
     

    eVGA FTW!

    Ya, that's why I was looking for full covers; whats the point of cooling the GPU if the other components overheat...
     
    Blah, may have to initiate a Step-Up to a 580 just for the cover and 3GB ram .
     
     
    ...appears I may have a Modding Addiction too.
     
    Thanks for the suggestions, they shall go into the mix that is the Potentials for making my computer a computer....and not a space heater.
