[quotemsg=19736991,0,370387]I wonder if this will fit the Aorus 1080 Ti Xtreme version?[/quotemsg]

"EKWB’s EK-FC1080 GTX Ti Aorus full cover water blocks support two of Gigabyte's top graphics cards, the Gigabyte Aorus GeForce GTX 1080 Ti and the Gigabyte Aorus GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Xtreme Gaming."

[quotemsg=19738023,0,1431229]Can you keep the illuminted backplates that gigabyte and asus use for these cards?[/quotemsg]
Apparently not. "GIGABYTE® AORUS GeForce® GTX 1080 Ti factory backplate is not compatible with this water block!"

So you basically lose all the RGB lighting on the card, it appears.
