D-Tek Fuzion GPU and Uni-Sink

D_o_S · Aug 9, 2007

Before the next generation of GPUs is released, we must deal with NVIDIA's flag-ship card, the 8800 Ultra, and the massive amounts of heat it produces. There are several air cooling options available, but enthusiasts will surely select water cooling. The D-Tek Fuzion GPU block offers versatility, and coupled with the Uni-Sink it should be a great solution for cooling 8800 Ultra and GTX cards. Is it the same in practice as in theory?

Very nice review. I was looking at getting one of the blocks alone for my new HD 2900XT. However, I'd be pairing it with a Swiftech Storm Rev 2 and a Danger Den D5 pump, so I think it would be alright...

Thanks, I'm not sure how a D5 with a Storm in the loop would handle another restrictive block, but you could always get another D5 if you were not satisfied with the performance... for your 2900XT, I would go for a Maze 5 however, which I also reviewed.

Hi, the temperatures listed are delta ambient (that means with the ambient subtracted). I added a note about this to the review. To get an idea of the final temperature, just add the ambient... so 18 C + 23C ambient = 41 C load

I like my Fuzion GFX wish they made the Uni-Sink for my card

I also get the same temps

Good review :toast:
