Evga 980 ti Hydro copper ?

[SmittyTech]

I am building a new system with a custom water cooling loop. I was going to get a normal 980 ti and get an ek waterblock for it, But this is basically the same thing. Its actually about 40$ cheaper for the hydro cooper. What do you guys think?

When possible get GPUs that are made with the waterblock preinstalled just so you don't have to (potentially) void the warranty or destroy something when installing one yourself, unless you like that sort of thing. Personally I would get the Hydro.

Just get the hydro unless you really really want to make a single custom water-cooling loop for your system

If you can find somewhere with stock then get the Hydro. I bought a couple when they were first released and love them. They also have a custom EVGA cutout on the block that lights up which you don't get with a standard EK block.
