I know that an EK Universal waterblock works on that one, but there is not a full waterblock for the MSI R9 280.

To cool it, all you would need is a water block and optionally a back plate. Im not sure if EK has made one for it you can check here http://www.coolingconfigurator.com/

Most msi gaming cards are a reference card. Even they use different parts the pcb is the same. Well that's been the case for my 780 and 760
