Judging by what information we've gathered in here, there should be some available in due time. If you want a blockable card now though the AIB cards are the way to go. I'd check back at the EK configurator regularly to see which cards will fit which blocks, use that as a basis for other blocks as well like Alphacool, heatkiller etc.

Really prefer the look of the founders edition cards - but it feels like will be a good few months before we see a water block come out for them.

From Alphacool -

If thats the case, this changes things. Those who want an alphacool block will be able to choose which card they want to fit for a particular block.
Very interesting! Will keep an eye out at the end of next week.

Likewise. Those posts I quoted were both posted on the official Alphacool forums this Thursday just gone, so fingers crossed!

Historically EVGA have honoured warranty on repasted or blocked cards, it's fairly well known.
Ah okay in that case we should be expecting something at the end of this week then. Even better! Thanks for the news
This is good to know, making EVGA cards more of an attractive proposition. Just comes down to pricing, i know EVGA is usually more expensive than most.
Im hoping for more official FE block announcements before the 17th. I want FE but what happens if they all come out and say we tried, but there’s some issue with mounting a block on it.... I suppose sell it and buy a supported card is the answer.
if this happens there will be an uproar, we'll riot and throw sign posts saying FE Cards Matter TOO!

Well they not mentioned any FE blocks so cant hold them for Word at all atm
Disappointing isn't it, still over a week to go yet so hopefully something comes soon.
I just got an offer from someone to buy my rtx 2080 for £390... don't know whether to jump on it...

Id sell it hoping to get 300 quid for my titan with block on it.
Problem is i have no other card to use while its out, does seem a good offer though...

That’s the news I have been waiting for thank you! It’s going to look unique with a block and that v cut in #excitedlikealittlegirlEKWB on this Nvidia custom PCB vs ref PCB topic:

well it's a bit of grey area for all graphics cards. Question is how easy to remove the heatsink and revert the process in case of warranty
my previous card was EVGA and they was more than happy to deal with warranty when I had changed the cooler. Wasn’t sure how nvidia viewed it.
I hear the words Quantum and Magnitude and i see ££££, it's gonna cost an arm and a leg! Not complaining if its good stuff thoughEKWB on this Nvidia custom PCB vs ref PCB topic:
