[disruptfam]

hey fellaz which ek block's will fit the nb and sb of the evga 680i mobo? And what store can i get them both...

I think the ek nb evga 680i will fit on the nb(due to the name) but no idea with the sb...

Anyone with ek blocks on the nb and sb can you please post a pic of link me to one

cheers

[Jedda]

EK680i and EK Nf4 rev1.1



The V1000 drive cages go well hanging above the V2000 psu.

[disruptfam]

jedda where can i get both those blocks?? ek directly???

cheers mate

[Jedda]

Yeah, I got them direct from EK
Shipping was reasonable. Not sure if he still doesn't do paypal but bank transfer worked OK for payment.
PerfPC has the delrin versions in stock so you could get them that way if you didn't want acrylic. I prefer the delrin.

yeah i want the same one's you used....

Which place with ship faster i want to complete my loop before the 13th oct if possible....

didn't you say perfpc takes 2 weeks or so??

cheers

[Jedda]

PerfPC fastest was 6 days to me (outside capital city) and slowest has been 8 days.
EK fastest was 7 days and slowest is hard to say as one went missing and there was a small delay before I asked eddie to ship a replacement. Must say he was very ready to take my word it hadn't arrived and dispatch another.
$Aus is doing much better against the greenback than euro. So I just looked to work it out nd PPC is out of the delrin S/B block Nf4 1.1. Then I looked at EK and the delrin 680i is out of stock there too.
High demand it seems.


Edit- Just been through my list of WC suppliers and although I found Nf4 in stock at Chilled PC in the UK, I can't find a delrin 680i block in stock anywhere.

damn.....i might have to source each block from different places.....680i block from ppc and nf4 from chilled pc will be more xpensive this way

cheers mate

[Jedda]

Yeah,
PPC would be $65Au for the 680i with shipping inc.
Just looked to work out the other and it's now listed as sold out. Must've just gone. bummer.

[disruptfam]

bummer alright....

Should i order that block from ppc?

Or just order everything from ek directly? and wait until he has them all ready...680i nb,nf4 and mofset....might be awhile though oh well i guess i can wait....Less hassle imo...

thanks mate...

i'd probably wait it out with one store and save on shipping fees,

(correct my if i'am wrong though),(but i think you guys and take the plunge and buy them seperately with seperate shipping fees, hehehe)

All the stuff i ordered from Aussie store should arrive in the next few days...
The stuff ordered from Petra's i suspect about a fortnight,
And the stuff from ek maybe 3 weeks.. or so (Will not ship until the 12th)

[welshtom]

Was it cheaper to ship from USA then?

[disruptfam]

Was it cheaper to ship from USA then?

The stuff i ordered from petra's was about $20 shipping

and the block's i order from ek shipping is around $20 also

so about the same....

It would of been cheaper to purchase all my gear from Petra's (better exchange rate) but no stock of the blocks i wanted.

[Grafton]

every time i look @ that mobo with the blocks on i thing the fuzion is upsidedown lol

[Jedda]

Where are you using the metal polish?

[disruptfam]

[disruptfam]

Where are you using the metal polish?

They usually have packs or single sheets but it depends on the store. Some things their stock can be patchy. Like rubber grometts. They have a rack with every possible size but half are missing. lol
