That GPU waterblock is only compatible with Reference 970's.The MSI card uses a custom PCB and requires a specific Full cover block

These are the only 2 FC blocks that are compatible

will use overclockers again, very fast

What are you using the rig for that you need way more CPU power than GPU?

I would go Z97 & better gpu if your really stuck for cash. If not save a little more and go for a 980 or 390 / 390X when released.

Already got it all. Put the board cpu and card in. Waiting for some 45 erg bits for the water cooling
