Anyone running custom loop 4090 on here? There's discounts going on and wondering if this is the right time to purchase. Ok to post websites?

Yeah, I got an EK block for my ASUS TUF 4090 OC about a month ago. Besides getting the card run cooler, blocking it dropped the length down from 348mm to 260mm.

If you can find them discounted, don't wait till it's back to full MSRP.

I got my block, just waiting for the cards to start restocking, probably wont see that until January some time , so if you want one now a prebuilt might be an option.

It hums along quite nicely   My backup rig is almost identical (again, water cooled/hardline tubing) except it has an EVGA Z370 Classified, 9900k, Corsair Vengeance RGB 32GB 3600Mt/s (4 x 8GB sticks) and an EVGA 3090 FTW3 Ultra. Both rigs run 4k monitors - LG 32GP950-B (main) and LG 27GN950-B (backup).

There was a prebuilt around with a custom loop for cheap so I was asking LOL. 
I might still try to go that way IDK
