    Yeah try EK waterblocks. They are not the cheapest but the quality is spot on

    You could also look into Barrow, Bykski, Alphacool, etc. as well. Not sure if they have any blocks ready / released yet. I haven't looked too much into their blocks yet. I also personally haven't used any of their products, but I am looking into trying to find some Barrow blocks for my 1080 Ti FTW3s as they meet the height tolerance in my case. The stock blocks are 3mm too tall. For any watercooling parts, you could look into http://www.frozencpu.com/ and http://www.performance-pcs.com/ for waterblocks as well. A lot of places to look for cooling. Personally, I like how our blocks look. I would think a mirrored / chromed backplate would look really good with it.

    For members who setup Auto Notify from Day One will we get the Discount that was offered at the time?

    @Jacob. 
    Of course I want the EVGA block but getting one is an entirely different subject!
    I had never heard of the Barrow brand before but with the 2080s I have seen tons of advertisements for them.

    Unfortunately, no. The price offered would be for available stock at the time of the instant rebate, and the price will not carry over to people who used the Auto-Notify button.

    Yes, I've looked into their blocks quite a bit as the EK blocks, and our blocks, are roughly 2-5mm too tall to fit in my case. The Barrow blocks however are short enough to fit. I haven't seen much in terms of reviews for them, but looking at the blocks, they look pretty solid. I'm just currently at the point where I'm trying to decide if its worth it to purchase them since I may be upgrading to the 2080 Ti's soon, and that would be a little over $200 wasted 🙃

    @the_scarlet_one Glad to see you still hang around the forums. I think I sold you a  pair of HC2 waterblocks for some 780tis many many moons ago.
     
    @JacobB Thanks for mentioning that, I too may have a height issue to look into! Trying to cram a 2080ti in a micro atx case with dual rads.
