As the title says. Which water cooling kit would be the most compatible. I was watching Linus' Tech Tips regarding the EK kits and the relatively low cost, but come to find out that the Rad is made of aluminum. I take it that Poseidon from the looks of it is made from copper?

Yes, the heatpipes that the water run through are made of nickle platted copper. So ya, don't use aluminum.

EDIT: Also I'm assuming the op is talking about the EK gaming fluid kits.

I belive that they would be copper because if they made it only aluminum it woudn't be really useful

Here are the kits that can work with that card, I would recommend the P360 kits it would provide sufficient cooling for both CPU and GPU.
