(Help)Water cooling for ASUS Radeon R9 270X DirectCUII 4GB

Go to solution Solved by JoaoPRSousa,

Why don't you sell it and get a better GPU instead if water cooling that one?

I'm looking for some knowledge for a ASUS Radeon R9 270X DirectCUII 4GB waterblock but I can't find any for that card. So my question is were can I find any coolers that will fit my card(s)? I have seen many watersblocks for R9 270X but I'm not sure if they will compatible with my card.

Because all the information I get is that it works for a R9 270X. So I'm not sure if they will fit due to the R9 270X custom air cooling. 

 

If you have an possible solution for my question please answer. B)

I checked on ekwb.com cooling configurator and, quote - "they do not plan to make a full-cover water block for that card"

Well I could do that  :) but it will be more costly then just buying a waterblock. But I might do it because there are no coolers for it.

There's no fullcover waterblock for such card, even from alphacool.

You can put gpu waterblock on it and cover vram chips with rads, if u really need to watercool this.

Waterblocks for non reference gpus are big problem.

If someone could recommend a kit(GPU + waterblock) that works together. That would be awesome. Price does not matter under 370$
