My waterblocks arrived after 2 months of waiting, I guess it's RTX on time.

    Patience is a virtue these days, seems everything is taking forever right now, from the small trivial things to the larger important things, delays delays delays !!!  Enjoy your new cards and blocks, game on !!!!

    Things are starting to resemble something.
     

     

     
    I should be able to replace my current 1080 Ti's with minimal changes to the loop, because the ports offsets from the card edges match the EK's 1080 Ti waterblock ports offsets.
     
    On a bad note, the RGB controllers aren't working, pressing the remote buttons does nothing, so it's stuck in rainbow puke mode. (I did check the remote batteries - they are fine, I even tried different batteries.).
     
    On the other hand, the addressable LEDs are compatible with AURA, so I'll just have them controlled by the motherboard.
     
    Another bad note, the temperature sensors aren't perfectly calibrated, on idle one was showing temperature 2 degrees higher than the other. I guess I'm gonna have to live with that.

    Minimal changes to the loop done.
     
    Leak testing:

     
    Taking my words about poorly calibrated terminal temperature sensors back. They are pretty accurate. Once I got the water looping, the values differ within 0.1-0.3 degrees, and they match what other motherboard water temperature sensors are reporting.
     

     
    Also my flow rate increased by 2-3 L/m, but that probably has to do with cleaning the filters, they were a bit clogged thus impeding flow rate.
