I would love to see what sort of performance you can coax out of a 290X with a water block, especially in crossfire where heat was a major problem

Waiting for Heatkiller blocks then i pull the trigger on a pair of R9-290x's

Linus at LinusTechTips said at release of 290x that he already had a waterblock ordered from Koolance, I'm sure he will have a video of its performance compared to a watercooled 780 in the coming couple of days.

Now all you need to do is find a 290X to put the water block on, LOL. Amazing, the continued overwhelming demand for this card.

Now there's two. Quick do a comparison test.

It's a wonder to me why every card rated at 200W and above doesn't come with a factory-installed waterblock. At least as an optional upgrade.

 

[HiTekMuppet]

Any guesses as to how much it may cost?

Pics or it didn't happen.

Bought one of these blocks and I went from 75c full load to 35c full load. This block does an amazing job for cooling the card.

I snagged a pair of Sapphire r9 290x cards on Newegg last week (got really lucky) -- they just arrived in the mail today. Woohoo! I'm having a tough time finding the water blocks though. Out of stock everywhere (both Koolance and EK brands). I checked all the resellers listed on the Koolance website. No dice. (backorder/ETA is 12/27/13 through Koolance).
