back story/info Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)
I'm currently looking at the MSI 680 lightning as my next GPU upgrade, but looking around
there appears to be no waterblocks for it which is what I ultimately desire
Seeing as there appears to be no news I contacted Shoggy from AquaComputer directly here via PM
to see what he could do.
I inquired about the possibility of a small batch production and he said that it would be possible.
When I asked about the price he said
110Euros=136USD approx.
so perhaps if we can get enough interest and I could talk to the mods or one of the official vendors here on OCN that could be in charge of the distribution of the blocks for a group buy.
TLDR Summary:
AC can perhaps do a small limited batch production of GTX680 Lightning waterblocks if we can generate enough interest (minimum of 50 blocks)
The price would be 136USD per block (not including the final shipping price).

Hello Mr.Pie,
well, it should be at least a minimum of 50 blocks, otherwise it will be too expensive.
kind regards

Quote:
Hello,
I think the price will be somewhere around 110 Euro for a block. Shipping outside Europe costs 34.90 EUR so it would be a lot cheaper to ship more blocks in one parcel since the price will be the same. We work with a flat fee from DHL.
All prices include 19% VAT so if you are outside the EU you can subtract it since you do not have to pay it.
Fee free to use the provided information in a thread.
kind regards
