New Aqua Computer block for GeForce GTX 1080

The new high-performance water block for the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 graphics cards is constructed mostly of copper for maximum heat transfer from the GPU to the coolant. Its design has been slightly modified compared to previous generations of Aqua Computer blocks with the aim of reducing the resistance of the cooling fluid and offering better performance.

This new water block is made of electrolytic copper with a thickness of 10 mm to achieve maximum heat transfer in the most critical parts such as the GPU, memory and VRM. This new block will also be available in a version made of nickel-plated copper for a better appearance.

Aqua Computer is also working on a backplate to complement this new water block for the GeForce GTX 1080 and GeForce GTX 1070. It should be ready in two or three weeks and will be offered in a version with a copper heatpipe that will be in contact with the liquid. coolant for more optimal operation.

The new water block for the Aqua Computer GeForce GTX 1080 and GeForce GTX 1070 has a price of 99.90 euros in its normal version and 114.90 euros in the nickel-plated copper version. The backplates will arrive for 24.90 euros the version without heatpipe and 39.90 euros the version with heatpipe.
