Maybe DS wants to add this in for an option for the high end Classified builds?
EK water blocks has a new water block. Much better than the new one from Evga that does not cover the hottest components, the voltage regs.. lol And it is a beauty!

Great stuff, besides bragging rights, and just pure epic awesomeness, there really is no need.
 
Ever since the 'memory controller' has been moved over to the processor, there really hasn't been a bunch of heat over the chip set (north bridge or south bridge) chips.
 
Example, our Black OPS unit overclocked to 4.6GHz (72-hour stable) runs cool with the standard Classified cooling fins.

You know best Alex. I just posted it because a lot of us are seeing very high temps from the V regs. A spot fan has cured most heat issues, but this full coverage block looks much nicer, and cools better. lol

Ok, ok...Alex makes a lot of sense...but, putting "reason" aside (Smile) this board is the cat's meow (as my father would say).  It's gorgeous. 
 
....just how high up the food chain would one have to go to get real (ANY) benefit from this thing--920, 960, 975...or can I consider anything that "cools" better (than something else) is justification enough?  What's the price tag...or "delta" as BtC might say...between this "little pretty" and what DSO currently uses??  Pinch  Bottom line...what's the out-the-door (additional) cost...not including tax, tags, extended maintenance agreement, undercoating, and dealer prep?
