The Tri-X uses the reference AMD PCB, so any of the blocks for the reference card will fit.

 

If you've not bought the cards yet and you can find reference ones cheaper go for those.

Watercooling while you have the tri-x already? You have waaaaaaaaay too much money, and Greece is the wrong place for you to live in.

i run 5760x1080 (triple 1080p monitors) i have a build log in my sig that needs some serious updating because i have a new mobo since then. Just got my third card in the mail and finished the loop then one of my 780's mysteriously died O.o so im waiting for the rma to come back before i do the update
