    MSI GTX 580 Twin Frozr II. Wich FullCover choose?

    Well guys, like the tittle says, wich Full Cover block should I choose for my 580? I have been watching many of them, like the EK or the XSPC, but to be honest Im afraid that it wouldn't fit on it.

    So, wich should I choose from all? Are they going to fit? Wich one is the best for the 580.

    Beside of that, my actual loop is only cooling a 860@4.2Ghz and consist in a XSPC RS-360 radiator, it will handle the charge of the 860 plus the 580 OCed or I should upgrade the radiator or buy another one for more muscle?

    Thank you guys!

    If it is reference design then blocks should fit as they are ment for ref. designs in first place.

    Go to the EK site and check on the configurator. EK has covered a lot of the 580's. But not all. So you'll need to make sure. Thats a tough one, good luck.

    I'd get more rad. Your 580 will more than double your DT temps. Meaning your DT now is maybe 6C. It will go to 12C, adding 6C to your CPU temps.
    All stock for now, no need for more, but it's gonna be soon methinks.
