The comression fitting is going to take up a lot of space with the compression ring and when in a tight space your better off using a barb fitting it will be not as noticable by being in between the cards. If you use the first and third slots then you will have enough space to put the compression fitting and depending on what you are putting in the slot in between the video cards in that second slot it may not interfere with it.

so should i look for barbs that have the height up to 22mm?

edit:

is this one

The Alphacool black one is shorter and you can tell because if you look at the rotary part of the fitting you will see that the black one has a much shorter rotary part then the bitspower one. You can get the non-rotary bitspower and it would be shorter but then you couldn't turn it to the direction that you wanted.
Unfortunatly the bitspower fitting did't give the measurements like the Alpfacool one does.

As you can see this is the same fittind as the black one only compression and you can see the difference with the compression ring how it makes it taller than the barb fitting.
Yes I would look for the 22mm hieght for a fitting if you intend to stay with a one slot seperation between the two cards.

This is a closeup of the space that is between the cards when there is one slot spaceing.

Which EK block will you be using? If it's the first one then what you can do is get a triple rotary fitting and what this does is let you get from under the top baord and still have a compression fitting.

ok,am buying the alphacool fitting,,thnx for the help mate..😀

edit😱n the bitspower stop plugs page it says that they are low profile..so are they more thinner than the plugs that are provided by ek?i mean will i get more space if i used the bp stop plugs?

If you can see the picture of my video cards I have the thicker stop plugs in there and with you trying to fit the fitting in between the two cards then you want the thin low profile one.
