I have been searching around for a full waterblock for my asus geforce rtx 2080 dual oc 8gb gddr6 graphics card, but i have been unable to find any. if i am right it is a custom PCB with means a water block for a reference PCB will not fit. Does anyone know a waterblock that fits for my card. i have linked some pictures, hope it helps.

I don't think ASUS GPUs are normally Nvidia reference PCB, meaning they don't follow the standard Nvidia layout of components. Most GPU blocks released initially are for reference cards, but manufacturers like EKWB often do blocks for popular non-standard PCB cards as well.

Just as a heads up, if you're buying a GPU in the future and want to make sure to find a waterblock that fits it, shop for reference PCB boards first and see what you find. In this case, you're kind of doing it backwards and hoping to find a block that's available, which doesn't seem there is one (yet).

You can always contact EK and see if or when it will be out. They have a Discord channel that they're active on, also.
