OMG WTF is eVGA thinking...
this picture sum's it up:

This could be the OEM innovotek block... maybe...
Not to mention the seal and all of the screws! That is a nightmare.
that block looks like its starting to corrode.
Parts of it is a tintish green, and i see pits starting to form in areas.
YUCK...

Lol just check the finish, :sick:, and the price ..... :rofl:
The reviewer didn't seem to care about this flaw.
Corrosionphobia at it's best... :ROTF: What a major design failure....shoulda took a profit cut and went with a 3rd party manufacturer...Quote:

Even the Stealth, which was plated to the highest standards, didn't quite escape galvanic corrosion...
This one with naked aluminium... LOL!
LOL
I predict a product recall. Every single one of these is going to see corrosion! Unreal.
i bet you they voids warranty when opened so those un aware users start corroding they wont know and if they open it up to look its voided! :rolleyes:
either way most of use will stay away from it, bad idea from EVGA but doesnt really matter to us all that much right?
edit:
also looks like the CU plates are installed the direction?? looks like it wont be flowing well..
Indeed. I don't know what amount of glycol you'd have to add to your coolant to make it safe with such a huge piece of aluminium thrown into the mix...Quote:

When you pay that kind of premium for a card, you should get a quality product. Not this crap. :down:
i'm still just stunned, it's like a bad joke, but it's reality, whooooooooooo
Well, seems this time they commissioned the contraption to the wrong people.Quote:

Bad eVGA, Bad boy ...
im not surprised at all, after they send my a badly used RMA mobo with blue coolant everywhere over the board then refused to pay for shipping it back or even cross-shipping a new one hell they did not even apologize for all what happened to me!!! good job EVGA :up:
Nice HydroAluminum with a splash of copper block. :rofl:
Who's up for a group buy?:doh:
It's amazing that there are people out there who defend mixing metals :shakes:
What n00bs.
