EK-FC295 GTX Single PCB
The only water block for GeForce 295 Single PCB with parallel water flow over gpus! Anyone game for it?! Awesome EDDY!

I must be blind or something but I only see one inlet hole.

Isen't the metal chip a separator with another hole on the other side, in the copper?

Look at the plexi, there are 3 carvings.

**JoeChuo** · 07-13-2009, 05:28 PM

Let's wait for eddy to explain that ...

**pika198** · 07-13-2009, 05:40 PM

man, I'd trade my old 295 GTX for the new single board GTX just to get these water blocks.

Hi, this is correct!
From bottom side, there is an inlet then splits to both sides, left and right, goes over both GPU's and gets together to the outlet.

**Nanometer** · 07-13-2009, 10:41 PM

that looks like a flow killer.. look at the areas surround the fins for the GPU die. Or maybe not, be interested to see the results...

**Eddy_EK** · 07-13-2009, 10:47 PM

LOL, flow killer, you must be joking

This is the best high-flow block on the market!
Check aquacomputer channels and you'll see flow-killers

**JoeChuo** · 07-13-2009, 10:50 PM

Eddy you got my PM? Thanks for the awesome block ... my project will resume again!

Time to ditch my koola ... ugly block

**HESmelaugh** · 07-14-2009, 02:03 AM

Nice!
Great to see a new idea (parallel flow) realised in this block.

**damunk** · 07-14-2009, 02:16 AM

Love the aesthetics and love to see some performance numbers on that

**JackOfAll** · 07-14-2009, 05:20 AM

Does it have spacers?

[Runs, ducks, and hides.]

**HESmelaugh** · 07-14-2009, 06:10 AM

Optional spacers come with the block. Says so in the product description.

**HotGore** · 07-14-2009, 06:29 AM

More pics!

**Malik** · 07-14-2009, 06:53 AM

Soon i will make test of this block and some photos for you guys

**barretp** · 07-14-2009, 07:01 AM

Dang that looks pretty, but it kinda stinks that it only has one option for tubing.

^^ I thought this would happen.
With the Aqua Computer blocks, people are always complaining because they used to have threads only to one side of the block. Now with this, you get the complaint that it doesn't have two threads on either side.

But it's justified IMO. It's better to have options than not to have them. I wonder if a four-thread solution would be possible on a block like this one, though...

**Utnorris** · 07-14-2009, 09:18 AM

I need more pics because I cannot see the inlets or how the flow is suppose to go. Anyway, nice block as usual. Standoffs this time around?

I might be wrong - but I believe this is the general idea:

**theystolemyname** · 07-14-2009, 10:54 AM

Eddy's gpu blocks are works of art. What kind of heat would two 295s dump into a loop? Would a single quad rad be sufficient in such a loop?

**WaterFlex** · 07-14-2009, 11:12 AM

Wow! This is a reason for me to buy 295 not 4870x2 ! Thanks Eddy!

ya, tell me about it...

any chance of a 4870x2 v2 in this style???

If a 4870X2 block like this comes out i'lk be the first one to grab it!

I am kind of waiting for the 5870X2 now since we are so close to it coming out.

**geoffsthaboss** · 07-14-2009, 01:30 PM

whatever the case if EK implements this design for all upcoming dual gpu/single board cards id stick with them for good.

this design and the aesthetics of this card are worth the premium price EK charges
