    EK-wave now comes in delrin

    I noticed a while back that EK released new tops for his EK-wave block but I haven't seen anyone mention it here so here I go:

    I don't like plexi tops. Not because I don't trust Eddys constructing skills (I've never heard of a cracked EK block!) I just don't like the way it looks. These new tops look a lot better if you ask me, I'd choose this block over apogee. I hope he release a delrin version of the EK-VGA block soon.

    The new 775 top:

    I like Eddys Gold plated blocks

    Don't know how much it improves temps over copper but at
    least they should never corrode.

    Eddy says it'll be priced similarly to the rest of his fullcover designs, so if we assume it'll be a tiny bit more that'll put it at about 85 Euros, which as a direct conversion is $110 or £57.50. Unless of course he means similarly priced to the 7950GX2 block which is 120 euros.

    Smashing. I did expect these blocks to cost a bit more due to the many components that need cooling on the GTX/S but if theyre going to be around the same price as 1 of your X1900/7900 blocks thats great.

    I am all over that like a fat kid at a cupcake factory so I know I can water cool my GTS!!!!!!!!!!!

    I am thinking of getting a Chipset block as well for my Ultra-D as I want a complete water cooled system so I should just place one order. Save on shipping.

    TY EK!

    Nice work as usual.... any pics though of the res?
    Haven't seen any final pics of that you see
    lol... This forum requires that you wait 70 seconds between posts. Please try again in 8 seconds.
    *phone rings*
    Friend: Do you have a spare PSU lying around?
    Me: No why?
    Friend: My PSU just blew up, I think the second 8800GTX might have been too much for it to handle
    Me: what PSU was that again?
    Friend: Antec 480w
    Me:........

    I bet Eddy_EK would make a good job of Radiators if he ever started
    making them.
