When you have trouble mounting a block under 1 hour, there's either something wrong with the block/card or you're mounting it the wrong way. Perhaps send it over to Zeus?
I'd accept it (for free :p) too, NL here. I do not own a 8800GTX, but I'd probably put it somewhere on my desk as a piece of art.:banana:
WHAT! IF you tossed that card, you should have never even bought it.Quote:

I looks like any naked 8800 pic you'll find on the net...Quote:

i think it is a good temp for a vmoddet 8800GTS (VGPU from 1.27v to 1.35v)

I ordered and pre-paid my blocks on the 8th of January...
2 Blocks in a SLI rig
Just got an email from Eddy that the blocks will ship next week....
Can't wait...
SWhit
is the block for the gts single slot ?
Hi!
The block si 17mm thick and the bolts are out from the top 2,8mm.
Havent really checked if you can use a PCI card next to it.
Best regards, Eddy
Any clue when U.S. residents can get ahold of one of these blocks? It's the last piece I'm waiting for to become in-stock before I order my parts (and make the obligatory thread).
It's crazy how these blocks are selling.
The first blocks that will be made will go for customers that have allready paid them, and to our resellers. This monday.
First comes, first gets...
For todays orders the blocks will be sent in 7-9 days.
I bought 2 from Petra's Tech Shop...but they appear to be out of stock now...Quote:

It took you guys less than 4 days to buy up all of the EK 8800GTX blocks that we had! :eek:Quote:

I'm keen for the Asus Striker NB/SB/Mosfet blocks also - does anybody know an ETA on these?
Ppl - I'm Excited!!!!
Money talks....and BS walks...like I tell my prospective customers in a high demand situation (which happens to be all day every day)...put up...or clamp it up...Quote:

Short of that you are at the back of the bus.
Besides...EK needs to eat and buy beer like the rest of us....he can use the dough in front of demand and production. It just juices his drive.

You have every reason to be. :DQuote:

Yes it is.Quote:

Only thing is ( not included in the manual ) are these barbs correctly fitted, I mean with the bard and the washer beneath it ( both with o-ring) or does that washer with o-ring need to be for the gap ? the picture explains more than a 100 words...

That's correct how you have it and how I have mine
Damnit eddy, stop making your blocks so damn hot, I want to to buy some different blocks to try them out for my next GPU >.<
