EK Water Blocks Ready with its Radeon R9 Fury X Water Block, Single-slot Capable
Slovenian liquid-cooling giant EK Water Blocks gave us a sneak-peek of its upcoming full-coverage water block for the AMD Radeon R9 Fury X. When launched, the block will likely come in two material options - exposed copper and nickel-plated copper; and a choice of clear acrylic and acetal tops. The block features a common coolant channel for the GPU and the VRM areas, and features a dense micro-channel lattice over the GPU area. The company may also separately sell a single-slot bracket for the card's display I/O.

Would be crazy if possible, I would like to see it. ;)
EDIT: Oh snap, I just noticed it's my 5th year anniversary on the TPU forum! WOO.
Unless you want to do dual-PSU.
Besides: Dual-PSU is fine though.
There are some water capable itx cases, right?
Come on AMD, Intel, get your board partners to make such a board.
stay positive ... the card is not a failure and compete with the other one in the same price category ... so ... HAPPY TO SEE custom waterblock already ... (now just need Aquacomputer doing the same )
But the overclocking? The Fury X is already watercooled - all this block will do is allow a better audio experience. Why are people being weird today thinking Fury X will overclock more if you put a 'different' water block on it?
Unfortunately they only single slot card I know 980ti do would be a KIngpin Classified and that's a whore load of money :(
The single slot is nice... the card is meh
"Uh, this isn't anything new. They've been making "single slot" water blocks for all high end cards for years."
Only if they didn't have side by side display connectors making the card itself 2 wide.
I do wish there was a nicer look way to connect the hoses though, it's very blocky and inelegant.
