As the title says does anyone know of anyone adding an aoi cooler to the rx 2080 ti's?

It worked a treat on my pascal titan. kept it under 50 degrees on full load no matter the house temp . any info would be greatly appreciated.

Have you considered to buy a EK MLC and pre-filled waterblock for it? Might cost bit more but is much better solution than having VRMs and GDDR6 burning.

A single 140mm unit should be sufficient,

or better a 240mm

And a prefilled block like this

£250 is not a bad long term investment for a full blown watercooling, considering the cost of any top of the range card.

Next time you keep the MLC unit and upgrade the block. (or if you change to different block manufacturer, keep the tubing and fitting.

I have Predator 360 for 2 years now. Best investment ever made.
Have changed, 4 motherboards, 2 monoblocks, 1 block, 5 graphic cards blocks, and having atm non EK parts on GPU block (Bykski block for Vega 64 Nitro and Watercool Heatkiller IV on the V64 reference) using the EK tubing and fittings from my initial Fury Nano & GTX1080 Armor.

The performance is comparable to full custom loop, with none the drawbacks.

My next build going to have 2 240mm MLC units one for CPU/Monoblock the other for GPU.

Hi I am thinking a lot about doing it. About to put AIO and bracket on my Rtx 2080 ti. I might do it or not. If I go for it I will either get NZXT g12 bracket plus any of these AIOS (x42,x52,x62) or ALphCOOL Eisbar for Rtx 2080 ti look interesting. I will update you if I go ahead.

Not sure about this prefilled block being compatible with Rtx 2080 ti.

No You cant yet. They are not released yet. But I was reading somewhere they should be within 1 month out ;)

EK Vector RTX2080Ti is out. It only needs the QDC tbh. I am surprised that EK doesn't have the prefil as option like before. You could get the block and add the option.

I shall have a look into it . I could save a fortune in the long run.

Have to say though the vrms and the gddr 5 were left naked when I added the aoi to my Titan x pascal . Is it really that much of a risk to leave them that way since the card always runs 15-25 degrees less the it would have with its factor fans on??

These are GDDR6s, which already are prone to damaging. If you want to spare the headaches of not being able to RMA the card, better to the job properly.
You can keep the MLC for future. Including the tubing and QDC. And sell the block with the card when you upgrade.

Personally is a great investment for the long run. (Also you can hook your CPU block on it).
