R3 have you got any idea when the RMA's will be shipped?
As sidewinders have the rotaries in stock, i presume that means that BP have them ready to go.
I gave confirmation of their email, but they haven't notified me of any shipments yet. :shrug:

Well, I just got my comp fittings from NCIX, but the rotaries haven't made their way up north of the border yet.
I won't be able to write words with them like RRR did...but maybe I can draw a pretty picture :D
I'm stoked about getting mine. Those 45s and 90s are going to be vital to fitting 3 loops into an H2GO :yepp:Quote:

i am about ready to just buy the fittings from sidewinder,and to hell with the rma!!.
waiting too many weeks on these 2 fittings to finish things up!!
according to the last email i received from vincent,was that they were to ship out the 2nd week in october.
Whoopeee, thanks Vincent you rock!!!! I have mine now at last!!! I love the packaging, they are like packed and boxed like jewelries!!

Decent packaging. :)
More pics for the benefit of those planning to purchase. A feedback while instalilng it, it's hard to mount the NB block as the plastic spacers keeps sliding, hahaha, you have to make sure you don't move the board while you are installing the screws underneath. It's hard to explain but you'll know what I mean when you'll have one and is installing it already. lolz!

Thanks Vincent! I love Bitspower! You guys Rule!
That's a sick build! You'll definitely fit right in here at XS.
@crossover, what country are you in?
Nice stuff, crossover!
Too bad you didn't take some shots of the internals. I like the blocks and the whole concept of the NB/SB cooling in one for Crossfire/SLI, but for some reason the black sparkle doesn't do it for me. I like the silver finish on the BP fittings and how they combine with the flat black of acetal.
That said, it looks pretty sweet all set up like that.
@Nate PThanks mate!Quote:

@crossover, what country are you in?
damn dude those look awesome... where can i get my hand on some of those in the states?? or would i have to order them from bitspower headquarters?? hoping to switch to a Mountain mod UFO and X48 (hoping that bitspower is making something this sexy for a X48) soon just wanna know if there is somewhere to see the price and what else they have cant seem to find any bitspower waterblocks from their website (www.bitspower.com.hw) if anybody could help me out that would be awesome :D
I doubt BP would have one for a X48 due to the fact that there are way to many boards. Maybe one for the R2E but that's it.
@omaryunus
u can inquire direct at bitspower at sales@bitspower.com

@shabraCant u see It's already mounted? I already saw the internals and it's well built and finished, too bad I forgot to take a photo of it. I dont want to remove it anymore coz it's kind of hard to install it. Go buy one and share the internals to everyone else...thanks!Quote:

Yup block do look nice.
@crossover8
Hmm nice build fellow Singaporean,did you join any local forums like vrzone?
:eek: Nice setup crossover8 :up: Now let's just hope it gets to the states soon, unfortunately looks like I won't be getting on though. :shakes: The first picture you posted shows a bit of the inside of the block looking silverish...PLEASE tell me bp didn't switch to aluminum at the last minute?! :shocked:
hahaha! ey, im not a Singaporean, I am a proud Filipino working in Singapore as an expat! :up:Quote:

Why is http://www.bitspower.com not work & so hard to navigate? Nothing works when I click on anything on their site lol.
It works at http://www.bitspower.com.tw/
The information is all there, but I apologize if you don't read traditional Chinese :)
I've been soaking in everything listed on that site. Source of eye candy.
As usual, North America gets last dibs on the good stuff :)
Does that fit the eVGA 790i FTW digital pwm? also anyone know which mosfet blocks to get for the eVGA 790i FTW digital pwm?
Also first post woot
Hmmm. I just want one for my rampage formula :slobber:

thanks for doing such a great work for us. You can't run Dual GPU's when using normal SB blocks on these boards..
when are you going to start making these blocks you think? i think i missed some times.
ETA on Asus RE blocks ???
Is there anywhere were I can get this?
cant find it there

Huh? Do you mean if I work for highflow? Not really...
But now that you mention it, the site lists the block for €109,95 which is $150. I dont know if thats for pre-order but if this is the final price, then Hmmmmmmmmmm, I dont know if the wait was worth...

Standard response= they're shipping next week....they're always shipping next week.
Where did the $150 price come from ?

As for these blocks, i've no idea. I can only imagine that BP have a lot on their plate, and things take time.:yepp:
Hey Crossover8 you nice setup. You might want to reconsider using all of those L-Connectors. The Tech at Koolance said to me that for every L-connector, it adds what is equal to one foot of tubing; thus reducing your flow rate.
I have ordered the bitspower n/b s/b cooler as well as the mosfet for my EVGA 790i FTW PWM from Vincent. Transaction went smoothly.
I am still waiting for my order for the n/b s/b cooler and the mosfets 1 and 2 from aqua-computers.de. I mistakenly ordered them not knowing they were for a asus 790i settup, so the mosfets will not fit my board. I think I will sell them on ebay. But I can't wait until I get my bitspower coolers. I will post some pictures when I get them.
FYI we have an in-house tech. His name is Martin. You may have seen his sticky thread at the top of this forum.;)Quote:

Andy, honestly dont bother unless you want to use it on your backup system. Im almost sure your gonna get i7 loving when it comes out making that block useless. :rofl:
Well a fullcover block will cost around that, unless we go XSPC madness. And considering 2 chipset blocks will run you about 60-90 depending on blocks, it doesnt seem that bad.Quote:

:rofl:
mcoffey, I'm already there man. It's going to have to be something really spectacular, and something that's absolutely need to finish a loop for me to ever consider using anything from BP considering the constant "released in 1 week" and the recent fiasco with the rotaries. :down:Quote:

But we were fine without BP before, you shouldn't have to be waiting for anything, if you get my drift. It's just that their solutions are new and innovative, such that we make ourselves wait...;)
haha yeah... I just realised it was three months ago the teaser pics came out... meh i can wait... the SLI-F on my SB does just fineQuote:

So here I am still waiting for this block. Oh man... I wonder how much longer
Hey I feel for you. I couldn't wait either. I sent a personal message to Vincent. He replied back and I ordered the block andd mosfet on Monday. They will arrive here tommorow; UPS. Which is Wednesday. Express shipping was only 45 dollars.
That didn't take long at all.
I'm trying to find them on their site but not having any luck. Found the rotating barbs but that was it.
So how much was the block?
People are mad because "next week" is always "next week".Quote:

Well, $110 sounds a little (just a little) more reasonable than $150 for a block.
just heard maximus extreme is going first for asus boards, so we are talking of months before we will see a block for x38 chipset, evryone will have I7 boards then :s
So id there anywhere's we can choose for application or is it just an email in thing?
It was a good day for the mail.
I recieved Both the bitspower and the Aqua-Computer Coolers.
Take a look:
http://fasterandharder.com/both.jpg
I am going to put the Bitspower in my rig. Becasue I have the mosfets that match the Aqua-computer cooler, they are for ASUS.
I have the EVGA 790i FTW PWM. Bitspower sent the mosfet for that.
The aqua cooler is bigger.
Very nice! The AC one is MUCH better looking IMHO

:up:Powered through the build here are some shots:
First I must say that the AC looks cooler, however, when i tried to blow through each of the coolers (Bitspower ns vs Aqua-computer ns). The bitspower had a large noticible difference in the amount of air I could blow. Now I know that isn't very sceintific, but the difference was significant for me to tell that it was much easier to blow air through the Bitscooler; so I installed that one.

without the EVGA 709i PTW PWM factory cooler.

Started no problem 1st time. It is late night...more later...?
so rich
Do any of the retailers actually have these in stock yet? I just checked performance pcs, sidewinder computers, and petras and none of them have them. Is this still due out "next week"?
In other news I've got my system put together, although it's probably coming apart again in a couple more weeks so I can finish routing the wires and painting the case (and hopefully installing some new chipset blocks if they ever make it to a retailer). Also need to reposition the GTZ as I installed it on its side since I didn't read the instructions prior to clamping it on there.
Do we have any internal shots or can anyone say how the internals of this block are? I've asked a few times, Vincent maybe you can chime in and answer this please.
:rofl: Aint it always ?Quote:
