Hi Guys

Seems we are first to market with this one also.

Order placed with EK Water Blocks this morning for hundreds of 980 waterblocks.

We have the full range of EKWB 980 Blocks available to pre order on our site right now.




EK-FC980 GTX is a high performance full-cover water block for nVidia reference (NVA-1G401) design GeForce GTX 980 series graphics cards. Please check our Cooling Configurator online compatibility system for detailed compatibility list!

This water block directly cools the GPU, RAM as well as VRM (voltage regulation module) as water flows directly over these critical areas thus allowing the graphics card and it's VRM to remain stable under high overclocks. EK-FC980 GTX water block features a central inlet split-flow cooling engine design for best possible cooling performance, which also works flawlessly with reversed water flow without adversely affecting the cooling performance. Moreover, such design offers great hydraulic perfromance allowing this product to be used in liquid cooling systems using weaker water pumps.

Base is made of electrolytic copper while the top is made of quality acrylic material. The top also features two pre-drilled slots for 3mm LED diodes. The sealing is ensured by quality rubber washers. Screw-in brass standoffs are pre-installed and allow for safe, painless installation procedure. Block is mounted with enclosed M2.5 DIN7985 screws and allows for re-use of the original NVIDIA backplate.

EKWB recommends the purchase of aesthetic retention backplate (EK-FC980 GTX Backplate - Black or Nickel) which improves the looks of your graphics cards and also provide some passive cooling to the circuit board VRM section.

G1/4" threaded fittings can be used on both sides of the FC terminal. Up to four EK-FC980 GTX water blocks can be used on a single ATX form factor motherboard by using EK-FC Terminal (DUAL, TRIPLE or QUAD type) system or other means of interconnectivity. Please note that EK-FC Bridge & Link system is not compatible with this water block.

EK-FC980 GTX series product is also the choice of EVGA for their factory liquid cooled NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 HydroCopper series graphics cards.

Enclosed:
- EK-FC980 GTX series water block
- mounting mechanism with screw-in brass standoffs
- thermal pads
- thermal grease EK-TIM Ectotherm (1g)

Made in Slovenia - Europe!

The OcUK Tech Lab H2O Custom GeForce GTX 980 combines the most overclockable single GPU card available with the most effective cooling solution.You can expand your visual real estate across three HD displays in jawdropping 3D and experience immense framerates with blistering graphics.

With a choice of the finest cooling solutions from EK Water Blocks, this card looks incredible no matter what finish you choose.

Never has a pre built watercooled card been such a complete package!
All of this cooling power would be wasted without the addition of the worlds leading cooling paste, a retail tube of IC Diamond is included with this package. The paste is applied to the GPU to maintain supreme performance with the GPU block.

The 980 operates at extremely low temperatures and has massive overclocking headroom out of the box, but the addition of a waterblock really allows the user to push the card to its limits easily and safely.

Whats the ETA.

no eta as yet. probably 7-10 days for the first few to arrive. I doubt they will be able to fulfil my order in one hit.

I did they arnt listed

the 970 dont have the same PCB as a 980 so i am guessing a 970 block will come soon but as there is no ref design for the 970, it seems that we will just see a trickle of custom blocks over time.
 
no eta as yet. probably 7-10 days for the first few to arrive. I doubt they will be able to fulfil my order in one hit.

just had confirmation from EKWB

blocks will be available end of next week so we can expect stock to land at the start of October.
 
Yes it does fit on one 970. Caseking have tested it.

I can't remember which one they said it was though
 
there is now stock of 980 blocks from EK

we have more on the way but this current stock is limited to the following

10 copper plexi
13 copper acetal
12 nickel acetal
12 nickel plexi
5 nickel plexi csq
22 backplate [black]
 
Any eta on 970 blocks?

there isnt going to be any major releases for 970 blocks due to the boards not being ref design.

we may see a few compatible blocks for the cards using the 670 board layout but i cant see much more than that happening.

may be best to look into thermosphere blocks if you want to cool a 970
