Decent Waterblock For 3090 FE ?

[ENTERPRISE]

Hey guys, 

 

I have been looking around at the varying options for Waterblocks for the 3090 Founders Edition, some really nice ones, but Many of them have the inlet/outlet ports at the end of the Waterblock which for my build could be a real PITA. So, other than the Corsair block as the image below, what others out there have the ports to the side to the card for the 3090 FE ?

The Bykski block is the only other one I am aware of. Both EK and Alphacool FE blocks have inlet/outlet at the end.

Cheers bud. I actually ended up getting the EVGA FTW3 Ultra Hybrid Gaming, however it looks like only EK do a block for it, meaning I have to wait untill april to plumb it into my WC

...you could have had a $5 GPU block from Banggood.com, you know...

Ah, cheers. Is that one different from the normal FTW3 PCB? I think quite a few are doing blocks for the FTW3 cards, just they're not out yet.

 

But yeah, hear ya on having to wait. Got a pre-order into Performance PCs today for my 3070 Alphacool block. Never used Alphacool before so hopefully it's good. Chatted with them and they said they should be getting them in really soon.

Yeah there are blocks out there such as Alphacool with closer availability but they only state compatibility with other variants of the 3090 Ultra Gaming FTW3. It does not state the Hybrid version Which makes me wonder if the PCB is different in someway. I spoke with them but were not hugely helpful.

That's unfortunate.
