Hello,
Firstly, I have to apologize for being so late with this block. Here in Europe I have been waiting for the board almost 2, then I ordered it from US.
Here is my proposal for 1 complete water block. I appreciate your opinions!
Due to pretty complex manufacturing we would most probably offer only Acetal version and offer only level 2 top in Acrylic version with LED diode holes. Let me know what you think.

just need to know the price and nickel plate it or stick with bp blocks classfied 175 dollars + 50 for the mosfets
Will The top section be removable and if so will there be 1/4 BSP threads below it for the option of taking it off?
So it is possible...
Seriously though, that block wants me make to buy a Classified.

1 blocker! Woohoo go EK.
if this was nickle plated...
or is about 100$ less than the bitspower block... I'd get it lol...
bitspower currently is the best but also has the "best" (highest) price tag and doesn't warrant its 100$ price hike over the koolance part similar to it
It looks great Eddy, exactly what I've been waiting for since Classified's release date. I was expecting either you or Mips were going to make this innovative solution.
Please make sure the water block supports both the limited (?) NF200 edition (141-BL-E759-A1) and the non-NF200 versions (141-BL-E760-A1 and 141-BL-E761-A1)

Nice one block solution Eddy!! Please get this to market ASAP as a lot of us have already purchase blocks from other manufacturers. However, I see another Classified in my future and would definetly slap one of these on.

Beautiful!
Yeah... Nickel plate that work of art and I would replace my Bitspower blocks in a heartbeat, regardless of price.
I love EK and Bitspower but that solution is magnificent. Well done.
Agenda: I have 0 projects prioritized for the year, 0 in progress this month, 0 this week, and 0 as of this moment.
Current primary function: traveling.
Not that affects me in the slightest, because I don't have a window on the side panel, but there's something in the word "solutions" that makes my teeth cringe...
I must have read too much Private Eye
I like the full board idea, but couldn't the water channel of the bottem be made larger? Also, will the x1 slot be usable?

I think it will be fine. The upper passage appears to end above it.
Good thinking. I just assumed that was only on the sample. . . . hope it's not on the final product . . . .
Nice one Eddy! It's something I've been waiting for. Can a similar block be made for the R2E boards? A full block solution?
I was thinking the same thing! One block to replace my BP mosfet blocks and Koolance chipset block.....That would be awesome.....
(New build):MSI Big Bang X-power II with XSPC MB blocks, Core I7 3930k@4.6Ghz with HT on, 3x GTX 480 SLI with EK Waterblocks(for now), X-fi Titanium, Gskill quad kit 16GB 2133mhz, 2x240GB Corsair GT SSD's(raid 0), 3xWD 2TB drives, Silverstone Strider ST1500 Watt, Dell3007WFP and 2x Samsung 305T's. Water loop: EK HF CPU block, XSPC RX480 Rad, Coolgate GC480, Airplex Revolution 420 Rad, 2x DDC 3.25 18W with EK dual top, Caselabs STH10 white with customizations....
Nice looking, I would lose the "solutions" thing and put "X58-Classified" instead and yep nickel plate would be nice. And a fair price! That Bitspower block is so riduculous LOL The Koolance is a nice price!
Looks nice. Is there going to be something like this for the normal non-classified EVGA X58 boards ?
Dark nickel plating
/sold

Make it look good and it will rock. Maybe add some red/gray/black? I like how the stock heatsink looks great with the motherboard, is not just "another motherboard heatsink".
Yeah yeah, Im also about the looks :P
They have had a 2 piece solution out for some time now.No 1 blocker for them.
I think it's a great idea. I don't like having a block for each component as that just leads to tubes everywhere.
Less writing on the block though please. I'd prefer just an EK symbol because some of us use inverted ATX style and upside down writing looks a bit out of place.
Looks slick, git er dun
beautiful
Judging by the responses, it looks like the masses approve the look of the design. I'll just add in, as long as it cools everything the stock sinks cooled, and anything else that may get out of control temp wise while OC'ing, I think you shouldn't get any complaints.
