You know he has enough cooling power in his rads to not give a rat´s ass about that last bit of performance right? :p:

Nice job innovating that old design of yours EK. I assume you'll be using this design from now on?

Just took delivery of a 2nd GTX 580 and EK waterblock for it. I thought the fins looked different compared to my first block. Seems new EK 580 blocks also use this revised fin design!

Flash and Blur > Shock and awe...
The military should change to that... then we'd have more UFO sightings.

Huh are you using a chiller on that setup ? I had some similar numbers and thought they had to be wrong.

I noticed the change on the 590 blocks and went to website to check it out, and it is supposed to be on the new version of the 580 blocks. Unfortunately, I can't find anyone carrying them, just the original.

Anyone know whos getting them in US?

Hi,

If you check with the resellers, they should have a "+" marked in product name on the boxes.
Since these have been shipping form March 10th ;)

Idk who you've sent them to, but Sidewinder, FrozenCpu, and Performance-PCs still showing original blocks.

I am guessing they going to trying get rid of that stock before putting out the new ones, or they just haven't gotten them yet.

Please check with resellers to check the label on the block. If there is a "+" then it is new revision.

Yeah, that's pretty much to be expected. Granted, Poland is not the US (;)), but I'm not seeing the "+" blocks anywhere yet, the precious few retailers that we have are all still selling the "old" design or are out of stock, which is a pity, since I'll be ordering mine next week. If it weren't for shipping costs, I'd order directly from EK, alas...
