    Those are good blocks.
    Is this your first build on water?

    Is this the one you're getting? I like my EK acetal full cover blocks and they do a fine job of keeping my boards cool.

    I meant to add that my EK backplate also provides some extra cooling for my VRM. A backplate might be a good investment if it's like my backplate.

    The Titan blocks are nice along with the back plate. 
    I have the EK-FC Acetal + Nickel blocks on my pair of Titan X SC.
    Don't forget about a SLI port block in - Serial or Parallel.

    I'd go with the serial terminal block. I can almost swear that my temps increased after converting from serial flow using fittings and a short piece of hose to the parallel terminal block. It's just that nobody had a serial terminal in stock. https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-fc-terminal-dual-serial-3-slot

    im just gonna keep the gpu's tied together via a parallel type setup.  Didnt have any issues with the 2 r9 290s prior as temps were great... can only imagine how much better the temps will be with these 2 cards that dont use as much power as the 290's...

    OK!!  update......  I finally had time to play "PC" today and installed my FCWB's on these 980ti's.  Cooling is AMAZING with these blocks, thanks EK!  After running Heaven Benchmark @ 1480core / 1900mem with .30mv added my max temps on both gpus was 38c  ..  Just couldnt believe it, but was recorded with gpu-z.  Coming from my old setup using 2 R9 290's in crossfire, those cards RAN HOOOOOOOT (yes they had FCWB's on them too) those cards ran maxed out @ 62c..  What a difference.  Im loving this maxwell architecture, so efficient.  Thanks everyone for all the help

    Those are great temperatures. I have to agree that these EK waterblocks are awesome.

    Good blocks+Maxwell= Golden temps.  I think the highest I have gotten mine is either 32 or 34c and that was only during benching.  Normally I am cruising 28c under load in most games, even using DSR and cranking it up to 4k.
