Does the Windforce 290 have a reference PCB?

[PeanutsAreYum]

I am looking to get either an NZXT G10 Kraken or a full loop (I have finally found a good watercooling place in Aus) but I have a Windforce 290 and I have seen other forum threads (which I don't trust as much as you guys) that say you need a reference 290.

 

So is the Windforce 290 a reference PCB?

 

I've had a look at pictures and it looks damn similar but I need to be sure

 

Thanks

Try looking it up here: http://www.coolingconfigurator.com (even if you don't plan to use EKWB gear, you can find some information there)

I looked up images of both. They look VERY similar.
