Those are for founder's edition. I'm talking about WBs for non-reference cards.

Any news on Classifieds ?

And yet the MSI Gaming model is even pricier than the overpriced FE model... this doesn't bode well for me wanting to buy a 1080ti when that releases... I guess the cheaper models are there for those who want it. But how do they perform? We need benchmarks! Lots and lots of benchmarks!
just as poo thermal and noise performance as the founders, but £100 less expensive, so you can buy a water block and fix those problems.

Half tempted by the KFA2 and grabbing a block.
Can keep my current watercooling loop then.
Non-Ref waterblocks normally take their time, some of the above will have reference PCB though, not all use a custom PCB.

@ Gibbo
Any ETA on the MSI Sea Hawk?
Cheers.

EK will gradually release them one by one within a few weeks, so I'll just wait for the first one to be released. Likely I'll have to wait that long for the cards to be available anyway.
EK's reference waterblock will not work on any of these better designs that have more than one power connector, since it covers all of the card's length and it will have no space for a second power connector. Of course that can be overcome with some modding but I guess I'll just wait.

Is that awful blue man design on the KFA2 optional? Picture shows it with and without.

Still waiting for the 1070. Nvidia's pricing of the Founders Edition card has allowed these prices to be way to steep.

That Sea Hawk only has a single 8-pin power connector. It will be power limited, and the lower temperatures from water cooling won't help with overclocking. OCUK is selling the EVGA 980 Ti Hybrid at relatively low price, however.

Pre-Ordeded the Strix Gaming Aura....

Debating on the ACX or the Strix. Never had problems with the Strix but it's quite expensive compared with the EVGA ACX. I'll probably lean towards asus

Anyone know why the KFA2 one at £549.99 doesn't come with free shipping?
