SpartanGolf6 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 I'm looking to build my own gaming computer in the future and I was considering getting a RTX 2080 or a 2080Ti, but I want to have it watercooled. I know there are ones that come with it intergrated on the GPU, but they're asking for another 500+ dollars for a AIO watercooled one. I was wondering if there is a way to mount a Corsair AIO CPU cooler onto a RTX 2080, 2080 Super or a 2080ti. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acemaninwa871 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 No, you need a waterblock designed for a video card. You need to cool not only the gpu chip but other things as well. If I were you, I'd just go with a hydro x setup. You can see mine here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 There are some 2080 series GPUs sold as hybrids (with AIO attached) and a few kits as well. However, make sure you read up on these. A 120mm radiator was enough for the 1080 Ti and prior Titan series. The current GPUs run a hit hotter at the chip and combined with a small radiator won't get you much compared to air cooler. The better ones will be on a 240mm radiator, but then fitting that with your CPU radiator could be an issue. You'll have to compare the option available in that form to a basic 2080 (Ti) and full water block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking about using Corsair's Hydro X, but I don't know how well it'll fit in the Corsair 680X case that I was planning on getting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Lots of those to look at in both the Hydro X and custom PC sections. Most people will go 1x360 + 1x240mm radiator up top, but dual 280 is possible as well. Most 2080 Ti owners will see GPU temps between 40-50C on a full water block.

LeDoyen Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 2x280 work well on the 680x. The front 360 mounting isn't ideal as the front glass limits airflow too much and is a pain to remove.. But on dual 280 top and bottom mounted, it's a straight air flow, more so if you vertical mount the GPU. And the top glass is easy to remove if needed.
