Just having a quick look at these blocks but can't seem to find any and on the EK website it points me to the 580 waterblocks...


Which is the best? Which one fits best?


Anyone with any experience in this, please help.

Thanks
 
I don't think so, i looked at referrence and non referrence blocks and they look different.
 
Not sure if I am able to mention this ? but EK do a watercoolingconfigurator not giving the link encase I get told off (Google has the answer though) but you go through the stages and select you exact card and it tells you all your block options :). It worked for me as I have a top end 570 and it also has the 580 block not the standard 570 which was a good decision, as I was about to just buy the 570.

if you want to buy anything off EK that we dont list.

get the EAN number for it and post it in the pre sales queries section

5UB will then forward it to me and I will get the part in for you if you want to order from OcUK

we can get anything listed on the EK site :)

Thanks! Only just seen this and your reply.


I'll see when i need it but i guess very soon to keep the temps down in my case since its so cramped.
 
Can someone confirm that the water connections are at the bottom of the card and none on the top?

I.e theres no two way connection option just from the bottom of the card and not the from top?
 
I looked at the EK pictures and it shows the side that sticks to the actual pcb has no connections. It's blanked off as in solid and part of the plate while the otherside has open holes for connections.
 
post a link of the pic as there are quite a few blocks for that card.....but most can be changed to either top or bottom, you just move the blanking plug......unless its a gpu block and not a full cover block....
 
I'll post a youtube link in a minute of someone whos got my card and the same block thats on EK's site.
