2080ti in SLI? Worth it?

Depends on what metals your hydrox components exist out of. You can always just put a anti corrosion agent in the loop and not worry.

 

Corsair did not do anything to fix it. The only fix there is is a ziptie across the card to prevent it from leaking.

Hmm, in that case I'll need to take a look. I think its nickel plated copper for the heatsink and unsure about the radiator.


Their fluid, which I also used, is a pre-mix with anti-corrosives.

 

Bottle says protects copper, brass and nickel with advanced non-toxic, anti-corrosion inhibitors.

 

So really... any waterblock? What consideration do I need to pay to fittings?

I have 3 GTX 2080 ti and one is a 2 slot card so it would be fine for card #1 for SLI. I also have a 1300 watt PSU.

I have games that I have 1000s of hours in that use SLI and plan to do 1000s more hours.

 

I am not doing SLI because in tests on my SLI games I am already CPU bound(at 4k) even with a i9 10900k.

 

So test your SLI games to see how for away you are from being CPU bottlenecked. 

It may not be worth doing like it is not worth it for me and I don't have to buy anything. 

 

I will test 2080 ti SLI at some point just for fun. But to do that the next perches I need to do for my test bench is a 1200 watt PSU.
