RTX 2070

Hello!

I have done a few posts now so let's get into something more interesting

 

I have been speaking with Aorus to see if they will bring out water blocks for RTX 2070 and RTX 2070 Xtreme. 

unfortunately, the answer I was given was that. If there was enough demand they would produce the blocks. 

Below are the cards I am referencing. 

 

2070 xtreme:

2070 standard:

If there is enough demand on this post I can then pass this onto the R&D team through a direct contact to see if it is possible to get water cooling blocks for the 2070 series.

 

You may be thinking why water cool the 2070 cards. Well in my opinion 2070 is equivalent to a 1080 and 1080 gets water blocks and decent cooling so why should the 2070 suffer from air cooling. Modders can then make the 2070 cards look awesome in their liquid cooling builds instead of forking out 1500 for a 2080 xtreme liquid cooling block.

What are your thoughts? can we get enough demand?

isnt the card power limited? why watercool it if you cant even oc it high enough because of power limitation?

because the 1080 has been a flagship model for a while, but 2070 never did?

I'm planning to do VR and game in 4k. So want to keep temps low. Another thing is so I can vertical Mount the gpu without affecting performance by thermal throttling.

Yes I have thought this through

You think the same as me :)

I have spoken with aorus and they said they won't make one unless there's a fair amount of demand. Will other companies like ek make a block for it?
