Whats next cpu and gpu blocks ?

And of course support for other mobo's

hey vincent

btw i do realize these are in the other thread

Start a bitspower gallery maybe?

[Giannis86]

the pics arent showing up :S

edit: ah i see them now..great looking blocks there..shiny!

[MomijiTMO]

This is probably the latest they could have released it. However I imagine all those interested in SLI would really appreciate this design and the STYLE of this block.

[Logos]

blocks look fantastic, hope they release the same for upcoming Nehalem boards
(also thinking it's kinda late for 790 NV; but owners will be happy I suppose)

[HESmelaugh]

Just gorgeous. Love the nickle-plating.

It's really too bad that Bitspower stuff isn't widely available over here...

[IanY]

Those are beautiful! However, aren't those a little... petite? Maybe size doesn't matter lol

[bluphysted]

Who's selling them in North America?

[Bojamijams]

Hmmmmm....I'm really liking these, but it would seem like the top mosfet block might rock a little if not careful with the tubing. One things for sure thow, that NB/SB block is a winner.

I'm glad Naekuh came up with this idea

andyc

I was looking at that too. They do have that one screw in the bottom right. As long as its a hardmount I think it should be good.

[Blacky]

when or where they are going to be available at e-tailers? best blocks I ever seen

[eXa]

I thought; oh god, not even more compression fittings. But it was the fatboys!


Looks good.

Edit: Well, loking at the smallest width on the blocks, the channels must be tiny. Oh well, on a secondary loop it doesnt matter much. But i know people are goung to put it in the loop with the gfx\cpu anyways..

[MrMojoZ]

I have to wonder how they make money on these. Only a small subset of people who bought a specific board will watercool the bridges and of that subset most proably already own blocks. I guess if you nail the product design in niche market you can charge enough to make it worthwhile.

Awesome looking blocks though, I just love the finish.

[Eddie3dfx]

Wow, I want the part2 for the 780i mosfet.. just gorgeous!
Also, no more overtightening on the top, because it screws in from the bottom.
I wish all chipset makers would go this route for things like southbridge and nb.

[mpower1001]

It's about time...Thank God

What are you talking about, I'm still waiting for the 780i version of these . Screw Nehalem, I just finished getting my Q9300 setup, no way I'm handing Intel anymore of my money for at lest another year or two.

Well, mips survives since several years in that niche market, so it is possible.
Agree, the finish looks really nice, now we can just hope versions for x38 / x48 and p45 are comming.

[Blacky]

See post #10 please...

oh sorry! didn't saw that but thanks

[orclev]

I hope now that the 790i blocks are out, that we'll see the 780i sometime soon (like maybe the next week or two would be awesome).

[arnemetis]

What are the odds the blocks fit the 790i FTW from evga?!

[orclev]

I thought, although I wouldn't swear to it, that all the EVGA cards matched the reference design.

[Blacky]

could be tricky but the FTW looks very similar to the reference design.

[BP-Vincent]

For Main Block..Nvidia reference design is all the same...Only the MOS blocks have little bit difference..But...I think ours can match thier new version...

Here is MOS block for ASUS on two positions...

Vincent, did you make mosfet blocks for the 780i?

[BP-Vincent]

Vincent, did you make mosfet blocks for the 780i?

Sure...There is only one 780i MOS Block needed....Am I right?

[Eddie3dfx]

2, part 1 and 2.
750i needs just 1 I believe.

[orclev]

Depends on the manufacturer. Some of the 780i need only 1 block, some need 2... there's a chart someplace that lists what model has what blocks, I just need to find it.

Edit: This is from the EK site and lists compatibility of their blocks, but seems like a good enough reference. ASUS 780i needs 2 mosfets blocks, but the EVGA 780i (both of them) is listed as only needing 1 mosfet block. I know the EVGA 780i I have has a fairly beefy heatsink/heatpipe on the left of the 775 socket, but the mosfets on the top side of the socket only have a very tiny heatsink attached to them without any heatpipe. Presumably that little heatsink is able to handle the load just fine.
