Will it fit ?

[dragoncurt]

Hi all. I found the Artic Accelero Hybrid GPU all-in-one water cooler for a good price on Ebay but since I have an R9 290x I do not think it'll fit. So I am wondering if anyone on here know if it will or a way to make it fit. If not no worries. Thanks

Well not only will it not fit the card because that is a custom board but I remembered that the 290x has a weird die thickness so even if it did u would need a custom back plate for it.

its a custom board manufactures usually use reference boards given to them by Nvidia or AMD. so the chances that it would fit are very slim. It would most likely either overhang or interfere with components.

Oh cool and oh, so the back plate which comes with the cooler will not fit it. Do you know where the best place to buy one from. Thanks

chances are if it says it will fit it will, but if u do get it and it doesn't, EK waterblocks has them just look up the die size for the 290x on google.

but like I said its a custom board so the chances of it fitting on the board will itself will be slim.

The for holes should still be the same size. That's what it uses to mounts. The back plate has several holes and comes with different spacers for different dies. I put two of the same kit on several cards. It's an ok alternative. I'd rather use something like the hg10 and any corsair cooler.
