If you are wanting to buy a ek nickel block make sure the EN version otherwise it will end up flaking, possibly ruining your loop and would have to RMA it.

For GTX 480, it was not full cover block hence the VRMs running similar to air-cooled temps, still well within spec. We took user feedback for 580 and made it a full cover block so you should get those lowest in class temps across all components using a Hydro Copper 2 block.
