Hi guys any chance i could get some help, i want to water cool my x850xt but i need something that is compantible with the RESERATOR1 V2 Fanless Water Cooling System. But i believe my model is the 1+ edition. One down from this as mine comes with standard blue tubing, this one comes with some funky looking clear tubing with strokes of blue of something.

Anyway you know my water cooling kit and my gcard, any helps is much appreciated. Water blocks or even chipset blocks please tell me about them ............... TY

Any GPU block is compatible it is not your rig but your barbs that will decide, even that can be mixed and matched but is not advisable.
 
o ok i tght gpu blocks are specific to the size of the valves 1/2" or something like that. Any chance you coud tell me what too look for or where to go ....

as i really want to water cool my gcard the whole of it. This will solve my power issues i got atm :rolleyes:

What exactly do you mean by that - cooling the ram on your card will not significantly improve the overclock, just put some ramsinks on the individual chips and that will be enough.

As long as the WaterBlock physically fits on your GFX card then it will be fine - the problem is that your tubing is pretty small - you need to try and match the tubes you use to the barbs on the block ('valves' ?)

Having said that, if your tubes are 3/8" then using 1/2" barbs is no problem as stretching the tubes gives you a nice tight seal!

Go to any online WC'ing retailer (and sorry but I don't include OcUK in this as the selection always has been poor ;) ) and all will become clear, the blocks are sold with a description covering what cards they fit and what size the tubing required is! - Personally I've always like my DangerDen Maze 4 GPU blocks as they can be used with pelts and are reasonably efficient.

EDit: Having said that, why don't you just get This from OcUK as it was designed for your Reserator? ;)
And you can even get the Northbridge to match Here
