    Hands-down the best looking blocks out in the market. Really nice stuff that makes for some very clean builds.

    Good job

    I think EK's block fits the colour scheme better. Maybe it's just me.

    However when i show them this picture and how long ago it was, they all agree its my design.





    see my bridges.. :P

    Basically i introduced the 3 piece block. :P

    Too bad i kinda retired from designing custom stuff, but it was fun while i had my run with bei.

    @ Six... glad you guys are finally using the bridge tho.
    I remember u and i had a conversation about u not using the bridges.

    Wow. Revolutionary thought about combining two MOSFET blocks into one MOSFET block.

    Eddy, c'mon. Seriously?

    Now I have to change pants and everything...

    Will those work on a GA-X58-UD4P?

    Looks like they will from my end. If so, and are available in unplated copper/acrylic, sold.

    Come on now Eddy, Six started this to let ppl know that he has blocks available for the X58 UD7. Please start your own if you want to do the same, there's no need to hijack his topic because someone got close to calling his blocks pr0n.

    I think I asked people about this once. And admins answers were?

    So i do not see any reasons why only a bunch of people can do it when it is allowed for everybody.

    BTW, both blocks look good.

    The EK block is nice too - they both are. Would have been NICER if you made it a full cover block - the output of the MOSFET is SOOO close to the input of the NB/SB it's ridiculous not to just connect them.

    I do think that the EK block matches better because of the amount of white on the board. Clear+silver matches with white more than black does (especially when theres no other sources of black on the board). My 2 cents.

    Nice looking blocks guys. I'm very keen to get one of these. I bought the older version of the EK gigabyte block only to find it didn't fit the UD7. Any ETA on availability for either one?

    Not what I was talking about at all. Sales outside of FS section are forbidden, notification of new products is not, as long as no prices are given. . .it's not selling.

    My post was in regards to Eddy's blatant hijack of the topic by posting pics of his blocks. He should have simply started his own if he was jealous.
