I have 2x windows force based GPU's and I don't think they are reference boards, so a full cover block is unlikely, for my cards anyway.

have you had a look on the EK compatibility checker?

yes it say rev1 is reference and rev2 in not.
how do i see what card i have.

Should say on the pcb right by the pci connector or check the box.

Do you have access to the MM?

There are 2 blocks going for £85 IIRC!

You want one of these or 2 in your case.

Can be had from a competitor at cheaper than the price of a Full cover block but performs equally as well.

Yes most gigabyte card have a custom pcb but they dont even seem to help.

My Gigabyte cards are also hardware voltage locked.
