Depends what you want and how much you want to spend. I'd personally get an EVGA Ti and put on a ek water block. You can set up failsafes anyway, temp target etc, speedwatch. So if the pump fails you will get a warning as your temps start to rise. I like the sound of the Poseidon card but depends on your taste as well. Unsure how well their block performs but it is a Great idea to have it cool down the card on air if the pump fails.

EVG GeForce GTX 980Ti Superclocked>Core Clock: 1102MHz, Boost Clock: 1190MHz/memory:7010MHz 3yr warranty-£530 FC Block>+£85=£615

EVGA GeForce GTX 980Ti Superclocked "Reference Design">Core Clock: 1102MHz, Boost Clock: 1190MHz/memory:7010MHz 3yr warranty-£570+FC Block>-£85=£655

Asus GeForce GTX 980Ti Poseidon>Core Clock: 1114MHz, Boost Clock: 1203MHz, Memory:7010MHz 3yr warranty=£620

Yes it would be nice to have a choice of say blue, plain black, yellow, they could actually give you a transfer sticker of diffirent colours to go over the red.

The Poseidon is slightly faster with my 4930K:4.4 the GPU temps vary with the game, room ambient of 22'c> Dirt hits 54'c Ultra settings custom loop.

Ebay sells sticky backed vinyl A4 size from 0.99p to £2.99 chrome effect, 3d carbon fibre, matt to name a few with a range of volours, so it would be quite easy to match your colour scheme.

Any card with a reference pcb will do it, use ek cooling configurator to see what's what

Going to get mine on water before xmas.

As stated - Cheapest ref design PCB. Need not necessarily be a ref card (as demonstrated by the EVGA posted earlier) as long as it's a ref design.

It's a shame the Hof with a water block pre-installed is so expensive (bigger shame it's white)

This is a good deal with a five year warranty and I imagine it'll be a lot easier to sell on in the future (wider sale base)

The next on my list would be the Poseidon but if I wanted just a waterblock it would be EVGA's superclocked and block.

Shame about the price, but the colour does go with my case theme. It's definitely on my wish list when I eventually install a custom loop into my case...
