Milessy Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Is Corsair able to confirm if water blocks will be available in reference format for the new AMD graphics cards? Could an indication be given prior to the AMD cards release dates, to help inform any pre-order decisions, particularly given the current supply/demand issues being experienced with Nvidia 3080/3090s? It would be good to know that an AMD option may exist, even if it might be a while before the water blocks become available. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurseich Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Would also be interested in news regarding amd water blocks. Especially for the 6900XT. Would help me to plan my graphiccard investement ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milessy Posted November 10, 2020 Author Share Posted November 10, 2020 Wasn't expecting it, but the RTX3090 FE went into stock on the Nvidia Site (UK) so ended up impulse buying. Fingers crossed the Hydro X Series XG7 RGB 30-SERIES GPU Water Block (3090 FE) will be in stock soon, as I would like to keep with Corsair for the RGB. That said Alphacool and Bitspower are making 3090FE water blocks so there are other options if needs be, and EKWB have one planned. Here is hoping the 3090 holds up OK against the 6900XT....!

I ended up having the same thing happen and ended up with a 3090 I couldnt say no to. But man I really want to see the 6900XT succeed... and kinda want one just to test. But a water block is absolutely necessary for my build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee Corsair GregX Posted November 23, 2020 Corsair Employee Share Posted November 23, 2020 Hi! There will be a GPU water block for the new AMD graphics cards based on the reference PCB layout. The Custom Cooling Configurator and GPU compatibility tool already lists plenty of compatible GPU models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Custom Cooling Configurator and GPU compatibility tool already lists plenty of compatible GPU models. If an ETA can't be provided, could you at least advise if one will be given before EOY? Seeing that the Ampere blocks were announced mid September, and are only just up for pre-order has me concerned I'll be waiting deep into 2021 for a Corsair block for my 6800xt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartanaco Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 It has been up for last week :) I am waiting patiently. Same! I have my reference 6900 XT and deciding whether or not to wait for the waterblock or just run it on air is killing me lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear you. I was going to do 6900xt but not much more performance for extra money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartanaco Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 I hear you. I was going to do 6900xt but not much more performance for extra money Yeah, but at the prices the AIBs were going for and the scarcity of reference 6800 XT's, I was fine with the added cost for the 6900 XT. I just hope there's not a long wait since it's been about a month since the launch of 6800 XT. 🤞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSHawkeye81 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Not sure. I was looking to go with an AMD card but might not since this block is not out yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfasciacarene Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Should be nice to have at least some news about the availability. It is online for more than a month and nothing, neither a "notify when in stock". I have a full system with Hydro X, an AMD 5950X and the RX6900XT. I will wait the end of this week and then if there are no update at all I will go to buy the EK water block that is available and ready for order. I have also contacted the corsair support by chat and the answer was "no idea", it is a shame public an article on-line without any information about price and availability. At least "coming in January/February/March", no nothing and at the same time there are the water block for any 30XX card from FE edition to custom card.
