Help! Water blocking a Sapphire 6900xt TOXIC

[Redbearin]

Hi everyone, 

 

having an issue with getting a water block for my Sapphire 6900xt Toxic, not the nitro, the air cooled Toxic.

 

I went to micro center and picked up everything I need to put together my custom loop, they sold me the block that you can see in the picture, this block says it’s compatible with the Sapphire 6900xt, it’s obviously not, the Toxic has a third 6x pin power port. 
 

Any suggestions on how to move forward would be great, this has been the upgrade from hell. If it helps or you are curious it’s going into a Ryzen 9 5950X, 128GB of DDR4RAM (vengeance), that has two FE 2080TIs SLI’d on a Asus Crosshair VIII Dark Hero. 
 

Thanks in advance, this is my first post on LTT

You need a toxic compatible waterblock, your fault for not doing enough research.

 

Double check, this is my 10 second google:

It’s my fault for trusting the Micro Center guy??? What’s the point of even trying to help if you are just going to be a jerk about it?
 

I had already found this before I posted, I don’t order off Ali express, the last time I did I was scammed (luckily didn’t loose more then $20). Everyone I know that has ordered off Ali has been scammed lol. The eBay seller looks legit though, I couldn’t find a single real review on this water block and have never heard of the brand.

Yep. Though thats perfect grounds for a return though! I would give the ebay listing a go, byski is legit they make decent quality products, much better option than finding a new GPU.

or giving the block some dremel marks don't do it

 

return the block & order a new bykski block
