Hello and welcome to the LTT forum

 

I have a few suggestions that I will edit in.

That one would be a good choice as well as this.: http://www.aquatuning.us/water-cooling/gpu-water-blocks/gpu-full-cover/9935/aquacomputer-aquagrafx-for-gtx-480-gf100-nickel-plated-version

 

Hope this helped  :)

Trying to cool my 480 on the cheap but its a bit difficult to find a waterblock for it. Never heard of this brand but would this work?

There's most of the time the problem... custom watercooling and the word cheap doesn't really come together. You'll get for what you pay for, usually a bunch of issues. And cheap waterblocks are quite risky TBH, because ther's always the chance that they shorten the PCB of your card.

It is not difficult to find a waterblock if you look. This is one I would trust for example http://www.aquatuning.us/water-cooling/gpu-water-blocks/gpu-full-cover/9542/aquacomputer-aquagrafx-fuer-gtx-480-gf100?c=6470 . 

For safety, if it is not a well known waterblock manufacturer, do not buy from them. Or at the least google reviews for them.

Don't ever buy one of them. I did, and bad things happened. It leaked around the seam, and I pulled the threads on one of the ports. Didn't even tighten it up that hard. Biggest waste of money!!

 

I got my new one from AquaTunning as mentioned above. Well worth it!!
