As far as I can tell there are no mosfet waterblocks that will fit at the moment. Where are you located? If you are in Europe, try contacting mips as they are usually the first to come out with blocks of this type. They should at least be able to give you a realistic ETA. The most popular solution in the mean time seems to be using small heatsinks such as the ones from Swiftech and sticking them to the components. They seem to be adequate from the reports of people that use them.
Time is ticking...where is my block? Haven't heard anything from Vincent in a while, getting worried...![]()
tick tock tick tock
Where are the dam blocks!
This is amazing. Next time I will make sure not to get excited about new BP products.
I just ordered myself one of these: http://www.webshop-innovatek.de/0000...320df290d.html
I actually prefer the look of the Innovatek block but I'll admit I'm a sucker for the bead blasted copper look and you don't see that too often. I didn't know they were releasing this block beforehand and it totally caught me off-guard (in a positive way) with their use of delrin and copper so this was a very pleasant surprise.
We've been waiting. For weeks. And weeks. Last I knew the blocks were done being manufacturered over two weeks ago. Should have shipped last week to retailers. Should have been able to buy this week. To top it off, Vincent hasn't appeared to have posted at the forum here since the 9th. If it wasn't for my upcoming lan party I would put it off a few more weeks. monday I'm placing my order for my final parts at ppc's and petras. Hopefully ppcs will have gotten soem of the blocks in, but if not, then I'll have to find a way to make the ek blocks work. So unless there's another shop you think will get these in before ppc's (if you do please tell!), I'm just going to have to settle.

R3 have you got any idea when the RMA's will be shipped?
As sidewinders have the rotaries in stock, i presume that means that BP have them ready to go.
I gave confirmation of their email, but they haven't notified me of any shipments yet.![]()
Well, I just got my comp fittings from NCIX, but the rotaries haven't made their way up north of the border yet.
I won't be able to write words with them like RRR did...but maybe I can draw a pretty picture![]()

I got 3/8"-1/2" (Nice small tubing for a nice small box)
I know Gary ships international, but Linus ships national
Plus, our dollar just went down to 85 cents after being up at 98 for a looong time. Makes buying stuff from Gary harder. Luckily, I ordered a bunch of stuff from him before the dollar dipped below $.90.

More pics for the benefit of those planning to purchase. A feedback while instalilng it, it's hard to mount the NB block as the plastic spacers keeps sliding, hahaha, you have to make sure you don't move the board while you are installing the screws underneath. It's hard to explain but you'll know what I mean when you'll have one and is installing it already. lolz!

That's a sick build! You'll definitely fit right in here at XS.
@crossover, what country are you in?
Nice stuff, crossover!
Too bad you didn't take some shots of the internals. I like the blocks and the whole concept of the NB/SB cooling in one for Crossfire/SLI, but for some reason the black sparkle doesn't do it for me. I like the silver finish on the BP fittings and how they combine with the flat black of acetal.
That said, it looks pretty sweet all set up like that.

damn dude those look awesome... where can i get my hand on some of those in the states?? or would i have to order them from bitspower headquarters?? hoping to switch to a Mountain mod UFO and X48 (hoping that bitspower is making something this sexy for a X48) soon just wanna know if there is somewhere to see the price and what else they have cant seem to find any bitspower waterblocks from their website (www.bitspower.com.hw) if anybody could help me out that would be awesome![]()
I doubt BP would have one for a X48 due to the fact that there are way to many boards. Maybe one for the R2E but that's it.
@omaryunus
u can inquire direct at bitspower at sales@bitspower.com
