I emailed EVGA before I installed my block and was told as long as I have the original parts and there is no physical damage the warranty is intact. So as long as you don't screw up installing the block your cool.

Perfect thread. I'm looking at water blocks for a couple E758's I just bought.

I bought the exact block for my board and wasn't very happy. Vreg temps were at 68c under load and northbridge was 55c. I switched to the 2 piece Bitspower block and temps dropped to 60c and 45c. My pump RPM increased about 200 when I made the switch. Hope this helps.


Do you have any pics of how you did the tubing for this? Would like very much to see how you did this.

Will try and post pics tomorrow. I finally have a night off from work after 10 weeks of  6 days a week and no skip in between.

Yikes, all work and no play. :(

Pics are not necessary, just wanted to see it.

I was looking at the fittings to go from the nb block to the vrm block. I'm thinking of using two of these (one on each block) to connect them.

I like using barbs, that's why I selected the fitting with a barb.

^ Nice. What temps are you running on full load with that (CPU and with what o/c, VReg & NB temps too if you have them)? Using a 3x120mm rad? Looks very tidy.

Looks nice and exactly how I was looking at running the tubing from the nb to the vrm.

Curious about the G.Skill Trident you're running. I had a set of the 3Gb 2000Mhz and could not get it to run at spec for anything. Are yours running at least spec speed? Wonder if they made an improvement to them.

cpu loads around 61c @ 4.2ghz  running two dual 120 rads 8 fans push pull,the vregs never go above 60 and idle at 40c. im not sure where to read the NB temp from as i dont see it in eleet unless thats what system is and thats @ 31c right now. As far as the tridents go im running them @ 2000mhz 7-9-7-24 1T

Also, if you go to evga's youtube channel, the latest video "how to properly isntall SLI" shows the new classified, the E770.




Thanks for the heads up. I'm sure that didn't "accidentally" find its way in to that video...
