So I recently watercooled my rig and have a gtx 780 ti with a bitspower block but I still have my dcu2 asus card laying around and I want to watercool it the only problem is that bitspower doesn't make a block for the dcu2 card so the question is can I run one card with an ek block and another with a bitspower block and get a sli connector to work or should I jus buy a ek block for my first card

I'm sure you could make two different blocks work if you can connect them together fine with tubing, but if that doesn't work, or you want it to look better, you should probably just buy the EK block for the other card

I don't know which DC2 card you have but, usually Asus tends to put a bigger pcb in terms of height which means that even if both your cards would happen to have EK blocks on them they might not align correctly since your DC2 would sit higher then your 780Ti.

 

This is one thing to consider. ;)
