Know before you buy
No, this block is specifically engineered for the PCB layout of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti Founders Edition. It will not fit custom AIB models from manufacturers like ASUS, MSI, or EVGA.
Yes, this is a full-cover water block. It is designed to provide direct cooling to the GPU core, the VRAM modules, and the VRM components to ensure stable performance under heavy loads.
Yes, you will need to purchase standard G1/4" threaded fittings separately to connect this block to your custom cooling loop. The block does not include tubing or fittings in the box.
The RGB lighting is compatible with standard 5V ARGB headers on most motherboards. For full software control and synchronization with other Corsair components, you can connect it to a Corsair iCUE-compatible lighting controller.
Like any custom loop component, you should periodically inspect the block for any signs of debris or buildup. It is recommended to flush your loop and replace the coolant according to the manufacturer's guidelines to prevent corrosion and maintain thermal efficiency.
