Does this mean the EK block's warranty isn't voided if we used a silver kill coil and distilled as loop liquid ?

oh the sound of that word "CRYOVENOM" so damn cool, this is why PC assembling is so much fun!! and always will be

Hope this is a 290X for $650. Sadly though, it likely is not. On the upside, based on reviews of the 290 and 290X, they're practically the same when both are OCed.

But if you WC a 780ti and overclock the snot off of it then it'll pull ahead.

Also I wish that Tom's would wake up and smell the coffee, lots of manufacturers don't mind you putting waterblocks on their cards. MSI specifically stated that as long as you put it back together before sending it back then the warranty still stands.

yea but the price will go too high i consider here price/performance

and even a normal r9 290 is almost 430$ add 120 for arctic waterblock boom 550$

overclock it and you have a powerfull card for only 550$ cheaper by 150$ than gtx 780ti

4 days ago there was powercolor 290x at stock fan sold for 384$ at newegg.com WOW

Reminds me of my old favorite cognac. For some reason, it came in a wooden box packed with excelsior (wood shavings to you younglings).

Didn't make the brandy taste any better, but it was eye-catching.

Aesthetics is the name of the game with stuff like that...and this

Who says things need to be only orientated towards beauty? function is what counts too. On a second note, I'd like to squish the guy who gave me a thumbs down on the post.

:lol:

Kidding, but some should take a look at this

Doesn't the avatar for the OP in that first link look awfully familiar? I'm having a senior moment - can't remember who it was and if we banned him. Some help here, please?
