Water cooling a 2060 super

Anyone know if there is a waterblock made for the 2060 super?

I'm trying to find one that isn't for a fe because they're so epxnsive to find in the first place.

Doesn't matter which brand 2060s it is, but I just need a waterblock for it

There are no waterblocks, because it's not worth it to watercool a mid-end card. It's only worth it to watercool the very high end, because the money you'll be spending towards a waterloop for the 2060S, you could have put that money towards a higher end videocard that actually performs better.

What about something like a 2070s

Doesn't look like there is something for any Super cards on EKWB.

Phanteks doesn't seem to have it either.

It does not specify on the product page but if you check with the configurator it should tell you what is compatible, this is for my super card for example: https://www.ekwb.com/configurator/step1_complist?gpu_gpus=4525

https://www.newegg.ca/evga-geforce-rtx-2070-super-08g-p4-3173-kr/p/N82E16814487453?Description=EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER XC Ultra Gaming&cm_re=EVGA_GeForce_RTX_2070_SUPER_XC_Ultra_Gaming-_-14-487-453-_-Product

if its this card I think I'll end up using it

if you're going for that card, it may also be worth checking out corsair's hydro x lineup. The website says it's compatible. https://www.corsair.com/us/en/custom-cooling-configurator/your-pc-configuration

Also, it may be worth getting a cheaper card with a good pcb instead of the overkill cooler on the xc ultra if you're watercooling as it's going to be replaced anyway.

No clue, but the configurator should tell you.

Check out this guide for that: 

It should give you an idea about the pcb tiers in different cards.

How about this combo

EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 super xc ultra gaming

and the XG7 RGB 20-SERIES (2080 FE)

they're compatible

I would recommend going for the 2070 super instead, it's a higher end card and if you're watercooling it makes more sense to get a better card and watercool it instead of a midrage one as @minibois suggested. But if you're just going for aesthetics it may be worth it. Also any specific reason for not selecting the FE cards?

I watercooled my gtx970 just cos I wanted loop and I don’t play enough to justify buying better card
