This thing is beautiful! Any pictures of the active variant backplate? I definitely would want that one to pair up with the block.
Is the block compatible with the eVGA GTX 1080 Classified card? That's the card I've almost settled on purchasing, but I've been unable to find a full coverage waterblock for it as EKWB has stated they will NOT be making one for it.
I'm waiting for the "Ti's" but I'm wondering if there will ever be a black and copper based GPU waterblock from you guys? Maybe some acetal + copper with no nickel what so ever?

WOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!! That backplate looks beyond amazing, I can't believe I've never seen it before. I simply must have this setup in my rig, and I'm willing to buy whatever next-best card that the kryograhics Pascal block will fit as long as it's not one of the reference cards i.e. Founder's Edition.This thing is beautiful!

The active backplate will look like all others before. You can see photos here for example.
Our block will not be compatible to the Classified card from EVGA. It uses a completely different layout.
Yeah I have to say I'm saddened to found out this block doesn't work on the Classified card either as that is pretty much the only one I've wanted ever since all the various cards were announced, because of it's likelihood of being the best overclocker.I'm a black and copper Classified guy. Ahhhh, I guess its a no go for me on the AC side for blocks than but I love the Aquaero though.

Does it fit any of these 1080 cards?
- eVGA GTX 1080 FTW - http://www.evga.com/Products/Product.aspx?pn=08G-P4-6286-KR
- Gigabyte GTX 1080 Xtreme Gaming - http://www.gamersnexus.net/news-pc/2459-…and-stacked-fan
- MSI GTX 1080 GAMING X 8G - https://www.msi.com/Graphics-card/GeForc…AMING-X-8G.html
So basically what you are saying is, unless I'm mistaken, that Aquacomputer will not make a block for anything other than the 1080 Founders Edition ... ie nothing that has an 8+8 pin or 8+6 pin power (EVGA GTX 1080 FTW or Classified or Kingpin, or the MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Gaming X, or the ASUS Strix GeForce GTX 1080 OC.)Does it fit any of these 1080 cards?
- eVGA GTX 1080 FTW - http://www.evga.com/Products/Product.aspx?pn=08G-P4-6286-KR
- Gigabyte GTX 1080 Xtreme Gaming - http://www.gamersnexus.net/news-pc/2459-…and-stacked-fan
- MSI GTX 1080 GAMING X 8G - https://www.msi.com/Graphics-card/GeForc…AMING-X-8G.html
EVGA - have not seen a complete naked PCB but from what can be seen so far I would say no *update* a clear no now
Gigabyte - never seen the PCB but Gigabyte was always very different with their layouts so I assume this will be a no too
MSI - no way, completely different
The only slightly different card that seems to work is the Inno3D iChill. And the really cool thing: it comes with a fair price and is as fast as the other fancy super-bulky-trillion-phase cards. In a comparison with the ASUS Strix OC it was even faster.

Well, hopefully this will light a fire under AQ's butt ... EKWB just announced they ARE going to make water blocks for the EVGA GTX 1080 FTW and Classified cards ... as well as the Asus Strix, and Palit JetStream ... all of which have more than the single 8-pin PEG.I'm in the same boat as you, '47 Knucklehead. I want this gorgeous looking block in my system, but I'm going to be buying either the Asus Strix or eVGA Classified card which means I can't. I really do hope that AQ would change their position and make a block for the custom PCB cards, especially the FTW/Classified cards as the demand is definitely there with EKWB for whatever reason confirming they are NOT making a block for them.
The only other alternative I see would be to just buy the cheapest possible reference 1080 in order to be able to use this block.
