Moving to WC'ing

[rjbarker]

Quick question folks, going to be moving my Rig over to complete WC'ing....only my CPU presently under water but wany my SLi 780Ti under water as well.

I'm going with Full EKWB's...now I want to keep my present PCIe Slot utilization of top Slot and then 3rd Slot (so I can keep using my Triple Slot LED SLi Bridge), now will this EK Terminal Block for dual Card 3 Slot spacing fit properly in my RIVE Board?

Its either that or go with a Triple Terminal and use a blank.

Thanks in advance
RJ

Hi rjbarker....good idea! those card will be a different beast under water...

For recommended slots (first and third red slots) you want the triple bridge and a blank...that dual doesn't have the length for the triple slot spacing on the RIVE

Thanks Arnie....not gettng a lot of help from the retailor of the site selling this stuff....so as said I want to go with my original Air Cooling PCI-e configuration.....this s what I'm looking at and looking for an answer as to whether this will work with my RIVE......Cards in top slot (adjacent to CPU) then skip a slot and into the 3rd Slot down.......

These WB's

This "Terminal Triple Slot Bridge" , which I kow is compatible with the WB's above

And this "Blank" for the middle vacant slot...

Is this all I need and is that Triple Terminal compatible with PCI-e Slots on the RIVE ?

I'm looking at 2 x 360 Rads to cool both GPU's and my OC'd 3930K....I'll set up the Rads with push / pull config.

Thanks in advance Arnie...

Hi rj...yes those are exactly what you need and are all compatible...I have that block on my Titan Black...it's a great block! I prefer parallel flow for high flow loops....keeps flow rate high as a whole in the loop less restriction and if your flow is high although it is halved going through each card it is still high enough and even leaves the water good time to carry away the heat....
