Hi there
was wondering if anyone has watercooled their "HIS IceQ X2 GHz edition 7970"? I'm in the progress of switching to water (cpu only for now as it seems).
EK has a plate that appears to have a visual match, but only because the GHz edition has the same product number as the non-GHz. I know this one has a modified VRM alone from the fact that it has 2x8pin instead of 6+8 as power connectors.
There would ofcourse be the option with just a gpu plate, but I'm afraid that won't be good for the rest of the card.
Anyone done this card, or know of someone who has or rumours of plates matching? I contacted HIS directly and asked, but they have no partners for the card (plate) and said it aint reference design.

Thank you for your support in HIS.
Please note that this model is not reference design.
Most obviously, it has more power supply and PWM phases than the AMD reference board.
We are sorry that we do not have watercool plate partners.
