Assume the one that DS sells:
2x SLI Quad SLI (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 590 3GB (PhysX) (EVGA Classified 03G-P3-1590-BR) Is it waterblocked as a couple of boards or would you have to select a quad waterblock? Edited by taw2015 - 26 Apr 2012 at 8:11pm |

Hi taw2015,
I don't know the answer to your question but I would like to inquire why you have selected the 590 for your GPU? Frank |

The gtx 590 is a single card with 2 gpu chips mounted to it, connected in sli on the board and clock speeds reduced for heat and noise. So it uses a single card water block. Two 590's would be two water blocks.
And like Frank and josephlee said.... why?? Production has already been stopped on the 590 I believe. Edited by bprat22 - 27 Apr 2012 at 10:58am |

Just a theoretical question.
Still happy running a dual-sli 570 @ 2gb setup. |

The GTX 690 was just announced. You can have one for the mere pittance of only $999! So cheap you should just go for two!
