It is confusing to say the least.

Sometimes I wish Swiftech made more custom gpu blocks.  Might create more competition and get companies like EK to not go back on their previous product announcements.  This is purely bad business.  If there were never plans or if there was doubt about producing a waterblock for the classified no matter how small, EK should not have said it was coming soon and then date it late August and then cancelled.  I know for me personally I don't have to watercool, but I was looking forward to putting a classified under water.  

Jesus Christ almighty!!!

I also bought the Classified specifically because EK announced they would make the block. Now i have a complete new build sitting here waiting for the last piece wich was to watercool the Classified
and i learn that EK is cancelling the block and screwing over a bunch of their customers!? How on earth is that nothing but bad business? None of us like putting dollars down the drain like this and alot can´t afford it, that trust is long gone now and how can i ever recommend EK to anyone again? Thats where you lose money not on making the block for a smaller volume than anticipated.....

THANK you very much EK.....

Maybe you didn't read the Terms of Service, but cursing is not allowed, so your post has been edited.
 
Yes thats why i didn´t refrain from cursing............ i will read them at once!

Try asking Watercool the makers of Heatkiller blocks. I just asked them a couple days ago about FTW blocks and was told they are working on those right now. Maybe they will be making a classified block?

Someone in here mentioned that the old ek 780 classified block will work on the new 1080 classified. He used .5mm pads on the memory insted of the supplied 1mm and 1mm on the Moffetts insted of 2mm.

Well this blows. I am one of the ones having issues with me 1080FTW and was gonna see if I could trade and pay difference for a classy, but now since no blocks, no can do. I think alot has to do with them partnering with MSI this year on the seahawk edition. 

You wouldn't be able to trade or pay the difference to get the Classified. You'd have to sell the FTW, then buy a Classified. EVGA does not have options for Stepping Up to any non-reference models.
