Seeing as they've now posted pictures of the Asus matrix blocks before the classy blocks id say it's safe to bet we won't be able to order them this week.

So I put it all out there; how about a real answer as to why this block is dead last? I know I won't get one, but I am very curious.

Yeah delays. Why was this delayed beyond all other cards. The matrix hadn't even come out for how long after the classy? Lol...
 
Bitspower just got back to me and  is releasing one in a couple of weeks.... lol. About $30 cheaper or so with a backplate. A bit uglier, yeah, but same function.

Awesome.  Whichever one comes out first gets my business.

Ditto. Unless BP offers a bare copper option, then they win the dollars.

"A Classy Bench featuring ASUS REPUBLIC OF GAMERS Motherboard & Quadfire GPUs! Completely cooled by EK Water Blocks and all assembled on aSpotswood Computer Cases, LLC bench!"
 
Four ASUS matrix's with EK blocks. Still no sign of the classy block and yes, I got excited when I read "Classy bench".
 
Less shenanigans, more release dates.

My bad, the quadfire did confuse me.  lol
 
I saw this here http://www.overclock.net/t/1540637/build-log-classy-bench-fully-water-cooled-quadfire first then the Facebook page but I could have sworn I read he had four matrix 980's in the ocn post, but I must have had another thread open and mixed them up.
 
The week isn't over. Let's see those 980 matrix blocks so we can get ours. ;P

 @Ek_Luc. On facebook they said the 970 ACX are releasing early next week. Is the Classy releasing before, after or alongside the 970 block? Also the RVE monoblock is going on sale early next week also. Its going to be a huge week for EK
