Can anyone with a EVGA RTX 2080 TI either XC Ultra or XC2 Ultra (Must be one of these due to being 10.62 and my current cards being 10.50) that is using an EK Vector block with the rgb logo jut out measure from the the rear pci mounting panel to the edge of the jut out logo? Looking for the overall length when the card is mounted so I have something to go off. I think I'll be extremely close due to the jut out light up logo in relation to my reservoir. Like really close. 😲 11 1/8" butting up against the top pci cover to the edge of the res.

    I'd post an answer to your measurement question; but, my EK Vector RTX2080Ti RGB - Water Blocks are still in the Box

    what if you just take waterblock dimensions?

    282mm is 11.1", so it would not fit already.

    walnut version (no rgb, shorter - maybe where is some plexi or acetal version without rgb?):

    264mm is less than 10.4"

    That is incorrect. 282mm=11.1" which is less then 11 7/64" and is also shorter then 11 1/8 ;-) Going to be pushing it for sure. LOL Card is ordered though as of about 3:30am. Time will tell I suppose at this point. Trying to find an rgb adapter cable now that will connect to the side rgb if I do have to remove the end cap piece. The Bykski 12v RGB adapter cable may be the trick but I need an up close and personal photo of the Y connector that joins the block's side and tail rgb together. @Cool GTX you have blocks off the cards hint hint. ;-)

    Damn, imperial system is such a frustration. I know, that 1/10 is less than 1/8 just because 8<10, but... what? 7/64? How? Why? Why you use square? Instead of finding out that 1/8=0.125? Or, don't know, 8*1/8*10 vs 10*1/8*10? = 8/80 vs 10/80? :) 
     
    7/64... I can't imagine guys how you live in such system - and it is perfectly fine for you :)

    What really sucks for us since we do use the inch system in the states is when it comes to a ton of computer parts they are always measured in MM in turn they always convert to a decimal instead of the actual fractions we use on a tape measure. So we then have to convert said decimal inch measurement to a fraction measurement which usually doesn't even come out to an actual measurement available on a tape measure/ruler. Like this measurement for example depending on where you convert it at. It actually comes out to 11.1024 which has to convert to a fraction for state side measuring devices that most people own. (tape measure)
    One result is The large x/x number isn't found on a tape by any means. LOL so that converter doesn't work for this situation. I'll have to dig for the other chart I used to get the 7/64 which isn't exact it's actually just under that.

    Ah, you just used chart. I though it was like "well, 1/10 and 1/8... 1/8=8/64 and 1/10 = 6.4/64 < 7/64". 
    It is still very odd and mind blowing that you operate with fractions instead of decimals. Not that you shouldn't - but that you think different in case of calculations.

    OK Finally got some pictures of EK RGB cables, that Might help you.  [Was harder than I expected - My Note8 camera does not like to focus on those little black ends]

    The Male 4-pins are to the Side RGB of the WB  (terminal side - water I/O)

    The small female 4-pin is to the End of the WB ("Y-connector" is soldered to board [+ G R B ] inside the end block with RGB - Power source (largest 4-pin)
     
    Hope this Helps

    SOB So the end I will need to adapt into a standard 5050 4 pin to connect to the mobo is the male end (end that has something plug into it) So in other words the cable I thought I could get won't work because it appears to have the same exact end as the side rbg. LOL Maybe they have the reverse of this also--->
    And that's a hard NO. They have the 12v and 5v version of the above cable. They don't have the opposite end on it. The hunt continues.......
     
     
    BTW Cool GTX I greatly appreciate the photos.

    I don't believe a fan header will fit inside that connector. Not to mention a fan header has just a pointed blade where the connector from your photos has a oblonged blade. IE Skinny and tall instead of just a pin basically. There are several different rgb adapter cables I ran into this morning but they all have different ends as in the openings for the pins are just square instead of basically on their side and stretched. Don't really know how else to explain it other then yes they all look like that business end of what a 4 pin fan terminal will look like just square holes where the connector on the EK RGB cable has pins that are a different shape. If that fan header housing was trimmed down with a razor blade to fit inside the connector the pins still may not make good enough contact to actually work. LOL
     
    Got the card a bit ago and test fit it. If I have the full on block length I would know if I need to take a different block route or not. Visually just looking at the space from the pcb to my res/pump it seems as if there would be enough room but I don't know specifically where the sucker sits on the front of the card (pci slot side) to get a close measurement. From the edge (pci bracket side) of the gpu pcb I'm still right at the 11 1/8" against the res and the pump sticks out more then the res. I could drop the pump down 3/4 of an inch though and just use the two top mounting locations on the bracket so I could make the pump top housing clear. Can't make the res clear. FYI That baby res isn't staying in this build. LOL Had to use it on my 540 air so the pump fit above the ssd cage. Not only that but I would probably be sucking air using this res with the slanted mobo tray and everything. This res I don't believe is big enough to allow some fluid to fully cover the pump top area once the case is standing. Not to mention it looks funny as heck with the giant void that is above it. LOL

    Maybe go - External Res/Pump - mounted to back of case ?
     
    Always easier to plan with parts on the workbench - just takes longer & you spend more on shipping as you make more orders

    So just a bit of an update. The EK block clears the pump/res combo just fine and actually is in direct line for the end cap to sit on top of the res base housing to the point the gpu brace I was going to use is pointless and not needed. So it all worked out. I bring you the 52lb EDGE
