Aqua Computer Unveils Radeon R9 Fury X Full Coverage Water Block

Looks nice
Excessive use of copper makes me wonder if its plated or something because 99 euros seems kinda cheap for a solid copper block.

It is cheaper because the amount of copper need for the Fury is less than a full size GPU would need.

strange because the price is not so different than a R9 290/290X block :laugh: (well ok 15chf cheaper than the Nickel black edition ... )

With the 19% tax added to the price of buying the Fury block from Germany it is around the same price as the 290 blocks in the states after I actually check the prices. It should be cheaper if it uses less copper since its smaller but they weigh the same 1,119kg. Must be a thicker block? I should of researched more before making my guess.

tho no matter what the price of a Aquacomputer block is always less than a EK (who are worth it ) or XSPC (who are, imho, so-so) i was totally satisfied with my Kryografics Hawaii 290 Nickel plated Black edition.
 
I have never owned an aqua block, just EK and HK blocks. Aqua definitely make better quality water blocks than EK for sure. I have not water cooled a GPU since my 6990 & 680 days. I do miss running dual loops though but money has been tight since I went the self employed computer, cell phone repair shop route in a small town. I do remember when Aqua first came to life their stuff was pricy, seems like they have lowered prices & kept the quality. They had CPU block made out of .925 silver, that was a first.
