lol, seriously, custom loop, or bust, not spending that much money on a closed loop that looks horrible compared to the stock cooler, and can you imagine running these in SLI? LOL

gutcheck Why is everyone saying the EK is ugly? It's beautiful.... Well, because they are. Wait until Watercool releases their block and then see if you still think the same. I have never bought an EK GPU block, but have used several of their CPU blocks. I will say the CPU blocks performed at the top (still have a full copper Supreme HF), but with the the EK plating fiasco, and Eddie's handling of it, I no longer buy EK products. That and the circle design disaster. Those blocks were almost as ugly as DD's GTX590 Black Dong. LOL. DD was in damage control the first day they released pics of it. I have used Watercool's CPU and GPU blocks exclusively in the past couple years and can say they look tits and perform at the top as well. I just hope the GTX Titan GPU-X3 arrives soon.

Looks "ugly" = Subjective. My thoughts: I didn't care for the CSQ design (circles) but the blocks for the Titan are NOT CSQ. Mine are all black, acetal and I love that look.

I just got my EK block yesterday for my Titan, and I love the way it looks. I don't like all that flashy chrome, copper, etc. though. Regardless, unless you're running your rig in a test bench or some other case that's not the norm, it faces the floor anyway. I, personally, don't care what it looks like just as long as it performs.

loveha Johnny_Utah Looks like Arctic has gotten in on the Titan business: (They were released already, but Arctic confirmed they were compatible with Titan). I know people may like these but I for one think they are ugly as hell. Yuk. Give me a custom loop any day over a closed loop system. http://www.hardwaresecret...GeForce-GTX-Titan/7184 Picture taken from product page: http://www.arctic.ac/en/p...9/accelero-hybrid.html Who would swap out that sweet Stock cooler for something like that? I agree 100%. I grabbed one of these for the 570 in my HTPC because I caught it on sale for $80 shipped. I found the performance to alright, but it looks like poop. Personally, I think the stock coolers on the 690 and Titan are beautiful. I'm still debating if I want to grab blocks for my two as I think they look pretty tough as they sit and preform well in my case.

For those of you getting more than 1 Titan and getting EK blocks: There is a new water bridge that is made specifically for the Titan. It is called the "EK-FC Terminal". There is a dual, triple and quad parallel available. The great thing about this bridge is that it does not require the "link" that has been used before to attach the bridge to the block. All you need is the Terminal and the waterblock! http://www.ekwb.com/shop/...l-triple-parallel.html The above is the triple that I ordered. Should here here next week. You can only order it right now direct from EK, however Performance PC's will have it by Monday or Tuesday of next week.

I know the looks of these are subjective. I owned DD metal cards a long time ago and have used Heatkiller, which I also did like. I think I am just in a "plain phase" :) Finally had some time to begin putting the blocks on:

The looks of these blocks don't really matter to me because it faces the floor anyway, so unless someone literally lies down on the floor and looks at the bottom of my Titan, they'll never be able to see it anyway. Dreamphantom77 Just got my EK waterblock and Backplate today. :D Getting my hose and connectors tomorrow, i'll post pics this weekend after I get it installed. :D Can't wait!! You're going to love them. I have the same combo, and my idle temp is 23C with an overclocked load temp of 33C.

Watercool are gearing up now and have started to list some Titan blocks on their shop, but are currently only showing renders rather than pics of the blocks themselves. http:// shop.watercool.de/epages/WatercooleK.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/WatercooleK/Categories/Wasserkuehler/GPU_Kuehler/%22Geforce%20GTX%20TITAN%22 Still waiting for the Ni-Bl versions myself. ---edited-- to put the link in

if anything, the heatkiller backplates will look like these (pictures are borrowed, not mine): the rendering doesn't do it justice because it's a highly polished surface.

...but you can roll it in glitter. ;) Personally, I like those back plates*, but each to their own. * I do worry about whether they'll cool the RAM on the back of the card as effectively as others though. Might have to bodge something up myself to help them if they follow the same lines as they did for the 680 back plates.
