The XC/XC2/FE Hydro Copper Waterblock is the perfect waterblock for the brand-new EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Series graphics cards. With a fresh metal shell and transparent acrylic, you'll be able to see the meaning of Graphics Reinvented. This is a full-cover end-to-end block. The base plate consists of nickel-plated copper, with an acrylic cover. The thin-pin matrix provides optimal thermal transfer to ensure the lowest temperatures possible. Flexible inlet/outlet configurations allow you to perfect your loop exactly the way you want, and the full-cover block cools GPU, Memory and VRM. EVGA has already pre-installed thermal pads to remove the inconvenience of having to guess and cut the pads yourself to make it a hassle-free installation.
