Thats not too bad I suppose, I can live with that.

I guess the circles can be ignored considering I don't tend to handstand when I look through my PC window.

With that link block have EK made the first dual slot gpu waterblock?

Staffy50 · 15 Jun 2012 at 17:55

I think i like the circles..

AMG · 15 Jun 2012 at 19:25

hmm looks okay to me

barjoysee · 15 Jun 2012 at 22:41

wow these are the most ugly blocks I've seen ever !! :eek:

just a square lump of alcetel or Plexi that sticks out over the card not shaped to the base....

And the frosted top stops you from seing the liquid !!
I like the circles !! lol there the best bit.

That xspc block does look pretty good

Rather sucks.... I want the old plexi blocks... and I don't want to not get them from OCuk >.< I hate EK for releasing these ugly circle things!

Same. However, acetal bridge... In plexi blocks

If they made plexi bridges, I'd be more than happy.

Will the 670 block fit the EVGA 670 that is currently on offer or the Windforce 3x version?

The Windforce 3x uses a GTX 680 pcb, therefore needs a 680 block.
The EVGA GTX 670 and GTX 670 SC use the standard 670 pcb, the EK 670 block will fit both these models.

Brilliant, cheers matey!

Will the 670 blocks fit the 4GB EVGA 670 cards?

oggiet · 18 Jun 2012 at 12:38

Are there gonna be 670 backplates ?

oggiet · 19 Jun 2012 at 16:38

Just seen prices of 670 blocks on EK website, crazy stuff

andybird123 · 20 Jun 2012 at 11:19

these 670 blocks are also not really "full cover"... as half the memory is on the back of the card

Do like that, but I still think the stock 690 cooler is better looking.

I'm really tempted to stick my system under water - but removing the standard 690 cooler is going to be difficult for me!

andybird123 · 20 Jun 2012 at 15:09

put the waterblock on and butcher the stock cooler to fit over the top of it

wish they'd make a 670 block like that the xspc range atm looks sexy.
