ColdWear Posted September 3, 2020 Posted September 3, 2020 Hi All, Not sure if Corsair staff read/respond to threads here - but hopefully so! I'm currently in the process of building a new system, and planning on going full custom Hydro X loop. I will be trying to get my hands on the Nvidia 3080 Founders Edition once it's released. Do you think we'll see a Hydro X Water Block for these cards close to the release date? I know other Water Block vendors have already confirmed that they are working on their blocks for the 30 series, but I haven't seen anything related to Hydro X yet.
jon_snodgrass Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 (edited) I also want to know this information. EKWB now lists one on their site! Cmon Corsair! Although of course you can't even order EKWB's yet, so not really a fair criticism lol Edited September 4, 2020 by Technobeard removed link
gateblocker Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) I really hope they do a hydro x for the 3080 founders because i really love the style of their hydro x line and dont feel like ruining my current build aesthetics with a different waterblock from another vendor Edited September 12, 2020 by gateblocker
Kobatron924 Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 im also considering an all hydro x loop with one of the new 30 series cards. But, im going to try and get a 3070 or 3070 founders edition instead. but i still would like to know if a block wil be made for those new cards.

Many thanks for providing those links.
Nemo1 Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 I hope the RTX 3090 FE will fit just fine with a water cooled system.
Ghostwulf Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 I am on the way to build a new system this year as well. I am planning to use a RTX 3090 and a upcoming Zen 3 processor (Ryzen 9 4900X ?) Of course all HydroX cooled. So, hopefully Corsair will bring fitting coolers soon.
ernestbolitar Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 So corsair will be only coming out with the fe design gpu block ? Will there be blocks for reference design or custom aib cards ? I full hydro x loop is ready already only left with gpu and corsair gpu block.
navarra.r12 Posted September 20, 2020 Posted September 20, 2020 hope corsair fixes the prior leak issues with added middle screw and thicker o-rings for the new 30 series gpu waterblocks.
vortexvt Posted September 20, 2020 Posted September 20, 2020 It would be nice to get a list of cards that waterblocks are preparing for. To know which one to buy.
ShamWoW Posted September 21, 2020 Posted September 21, 2020 Personally I would love to see Corsair release an AIO unit like they did with the 1080TI (https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Graphics-Cards/Hydro-GFX-GTX-1080-Ti-Liquid-Cooled-Graphics-Card/p/CB-9060011-WW) I love this GPU. Its been absolutely excellent.
Corsair Employee Corsair GregX Posted September 23, 2020 Corsair Employee Posted September 23, 2020 hope corsair fixes the prior leak issues with added middle screw and thicker o-rings for the new 30 series gpu waterblocks. It would be nice to get a list of cards that waterblocks are preparing for. To know which one to buy. For this, I would suggest checking the Custom Cooling Configurator or the GPU-Search tool. Lots of RTX 3080 models are already listed.
LeDoyen Posted September 23, 2020 Posted September 23, 2020 Hannnn... that cute middle screw.. and an ARGB adapter.. people listened :) the 12 pin connector forced a beefy design, but i dig it compared to the 20 series block
vortexvt Posted September 23, 2020 Posted September 23, 2020 For this, I would suggest checking the Custom Cooling Configurator or the GPU-Search tool. Lots of RTX 3080 models are already listed. No ASUS TUF 3080 at the moment :( I pre-ordered it, as it is praised in reviews and asus are the only ones who made cards with 2 hdmi.
verg59 Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 Any release date yet for the 30 series blocks? Have just bought a new 30 series GPU and want to integrate it into my loop.
