Maximum PC

my question is this..is the MSI N460GTX Twin Frozr II SOC GeForce GTX 460 an NVIDIA reference layout?

the reason i'm asking is i am thinking about doing a full water loop and doing some research. i did find this on Newegg.

"Twin Frozr II Thermal Design - 10% quieter and 5% cooler than reference design"

that statement is telling me that those cards are not of Nvidia reference design,but i want to be 100% positive before i go any further.

check out this tool from EK http://www.coolingconfigurator.com/step1 it give's you a good idea of what card is reference and what's not. It looks like yours is not. Most water block companies don't make blocks for custom PCB's unless they are of high demand and will actually be around for awhile.

yea i figured as much..looks like i'm gonna have to upgrade my vid cards before doing a full on loop
