Phanteks announces the release of the new Glacier G40 MSI & GIGABYTE GPU blocks, designed specifically for the MSI SUPRIM (X)/GAMING (X) TRIO & GIGABYTE AORUS MASTER/GAMING OC RTX 4090/4080 Series cards. The Glacier G40 MSI & GIGABYTE GPU Blocks bring the ultimate cooling performance with unique water block features to build stunning water-cooled systems.

The Phanteks' Glacier G40 MSI & GIGABYTE GPU Blocks provide a high-performance water-cooling solution custom-designed for the latest MSI & GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4000 series cards. A transparent acrylic jet plate is positioned directly over the GPU die to ensure optimal heat transfer. The backplate is included with all models to provide a smooth integrated look while providing additional cooling to the back of the PCB. In addition, the full-cover copper cold plate directly cools all memory and power delivery components on the PCB with high-quality thermal pads. To improve stability, a GPU support bracket is added to connect the water block to the rear PCI bracket so that the GPU is mounted more securely.



Like all Phanteks' Glacier products, the Glacier G40 MSI & GIGABYTE GPU Blocks are made in Taiwan using only 100% copper, cast acrylic, anodized aluminium covers, and extremely durable Viton O-rings known from the automotive and aerospace industries. The integrated D-RGB lighting beautifully complements the water block and can synchronize with Phanteks' D-RGB accessories and compatible motherboards.

The Glacier G40 MSI & GIGABYTE GPU blocks will be available in Satin Black, Chrome and Matte White color finishes.

Any chance of the AMD block's getting the water ports at the end as well?
Depends on where they locate the ports. If they swivel them around to the end end of the card, sure. Otherwise it'll be same old same old.
