Block for RAMPAGE EXTREME Design Ready

Vincent,

Any idea on the timeline for the full coverage block for the x48 Rampage Extreme?
I can't seem to find them if they are already in production.

Keep up the great work!!

Thanks

One more question Vincent; is this block also cooling the NB pwm's, the 3 coils and the Fujitsu ML cap that are on the left side of the NB?

The stock heatpipe does so i assume this block does also?

Personally i don't think it's a good idea to include the small block for the top right part of the board, i don't think there is any reason to change the stock heatsink other than eyecandy.

I'm afraid including this block will raise the price that is already.. hmmm well how should i put that?....not really cheap. :D

vincent, said he would answer my question by the end of the week when these blocks were ETA :)

Vincent, i just need to know if the block will be released before Xmas ?

sorry to post off topic here but does anyone know where to find the support page for this motherboard such as bios's and other info.. and does this board come with a snap on waterblock for the northbridge? i've seen a few pics of people with a generic red cap that screws on to the NB and would allow for water on the NB.. Thanks.. Asus.com does'nt even have this board on there site yet so i wanted to know where in the world can i find support and bios's for it?

There is a thread on the Intel part of the board discussing the RE board. You can also use a different block for the NB.

The fusion waterblock is standard and seated with screws. Theres a replacement from Swiftech, the NB-MAX which replaces the Fusion. Found here:
http://www.swiftech.com/products/mcw-nbmax.asp (That is if you still want to use the stock cooling setup provided with the board)

Asus forum for RE:

Download page:
http://support.asus.com/download/dow...Language=en-us (select the board via the menu)

The homepage for the board:

No worries, you're doing what you can, and the blocks you deliver are simply watercooling pron! :up:

I need to make sure here, will the 780i NB/SB block fit the 780i FTW?

it would be awesome if you made a block exactly like that one for the giga x58 :)

I am thinking about this, too...it's a good idea to make giga x58..and dfi x58..

Sooo, just to get this thread back on track. Vincent, is there a delay for the 780i NB/SB block? It's December and I don't see it at Sidewinders or anywhere else... :shrug:

Those screws desperately need to be countersunk and flush with the top of the blocks...otherwise, they look good! :up:

NaeKuh...thats the last time I give you info ahead of time, you bean spiller you. :shakes:

I'm working both sides of the bench presently, one side is working on an Asus Striker II Extreme chipset and mosfet block review with both EK and Bitspower represented.

Is it possible to retrofit a NORMAL rampage with these WBs?
