Excellent stuff that! Nearly went for a 360 but went with the 240 instead. Kinda regret it because i want to go dual loop so want 2x 120 flt’s now to make it.I impulse bought the PCMR O11d, then filled it with two 360 PE rads and the FLT 360 with the built in d5. Just waiting in this card to finish it, and probably replace the extensions with a set of custom cables for my new PSU at Christmas

got my build ready to go, managed to get a couple of koolance quick disconects which are used on the gpu, so when the next gen cards and blocks land i'll be good to install without draining the whole loop, just installed my replacment distro plate too today 
Cough over compensating cough,
is it just that you want people to know how much you must have spent on a graphics card because of how fat it is?
Hey I re read this and want to say sorry I didn’t mean to come off this much of a ****. I was just messing around and everyone has their own style
No worries, but doesn't every man wish his e-peen was a little larger?
no? just me then...
i'll see myself out

Looks good that! Bet you're pleased with it, love those QD's i remember when they were first released they cost a bomb!
Edit: didn't realise you was selling a EK FLT 120 Pump combo! I'll take it! Do you have the interchangeable ring for D5/DDC?

So with 3 days to release, I don't know which card to get (or at least try to!).
Seems like EK and others are doing FE blocks. But no idea when these will become available.
Maybe a non FE card would be easier to order, but we don't know which are reference PCBs yet do we? So could risk getting one which doesn't get block support.

on the flip side if you order a block wrong you could always sell it on the bay for full retail price, plenty of people would buy it or send it back for a refund, i'm pretty certain though that zotac and kfa2's 3080's will support the non fe ek water block
other brands not too sure as pcb's look taller than the two just mentionedSame. I'm going with the FTW3 which I heard takes quite a while for a block to come out for. Besides, I'm going to be waiting for Zen 3 or Rocket Lake before I change cases and move to a custom loop, so that should eat up a few months worth of waiting.
Aye, block can come in it's own time. Though I am always surprised how quickly air cooled cards annoy me these days!
Just hope EVGA XC3 is a safe bet for a bogstandard PCB

I've seen somewhere that the EK block for the FE cards will launch on the same day so expecting to see them available on the 17th. Not sure if OCUK will have stock of them or if its going to be direct from EKWB, either way don't mind as its free shipping from EK anyway but prices might be slightly higher.

Ah that's good news. Might try to get an FE then.

FE it is then.

those quick disconnects still cost me over £100 a few months ago, had to import from the states as europe had nothing
(£29 per fitting x4)Will see what time the release is on the 17th for the FE cards, hopefully same as AIB cards 2pm...
Ouch! Still a nice dent in the wallet for some fittings, thats why i was put off buying them back then. Can't believe they're still so expensive...those quick disconnects still cost me over £100 a few months ago, had to import from the states as europe had nothing
Bit of info from https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/ about warranty when fitting a waterblock. Just got to be careful as always. 
Alphacool blocks just hit the market and live on their website for the "reference" design.

Looks like the Zotac Trinity is the cheapest one to get with confirmed compatibility at £649.99 from ocuk if prices don't change.

Thanks for the update. Looks a good alternative to the EK ones. And it includes a back plate. Had my 2080ti on a Alphacool block, it was nice.Alphacool blocks just hit the market and live on their website for the "reference" design.

Do you know how much postage is?
