I think the 670 ftw 4g uses the 680 reference circut board so a 680 reference block should fit, please check this info.thumb.gif

PS: That's if you ment the FTW.

I finally installed one of my blocks. I used the screws that came with the block for the 4 needed around the gpu. For the rest of the holes I used the m3x6 screws I found at Lowe's. They were able to go thru the backplate and the pcb and screw into the block mounts. The only problem was that the head of the scews are not flush with the backplate and they stick out a little bit. it doesn't look bad at all and everything is making contact and the backplate is nice and secure. It was actually a very painless install. I am going to install my second one tonight.

Yes I am at work right now but I am going to post some pics tonight. I finally finished installing both cards last night along with the triple bridge and I re-routed all my tubing for my XSPC Raystorm block. The EK blocks and bridge look really nice with the Raystorm block and white tubing with black fittings.

I finished so late last night I didn't have enough time to game but the cards were idling at a chilly 20 degrees celcius. Usually they idle at about 45-50. I couldn't believe when I saw 20 degrees and they were so quiet. I think the RX360 Rad is plenty for the 3 blocks total. I am saving right now for a Case Labs Case and another Rad but for right now I really love my build. The GPU Blocks and Bridge really look nice. If anyone needs some help I can help. The backplate re-installed nicely and the screws don't look bad at all.

I was also really happy because the cards fit so nice. With the backplate and block the cards are so sturdy. The bridge fit perfectly and the cards don't sag at all. I was very happy with the way they installed.

Here are some pics. It looks a lot better in person. I wish that bottom line was straighter but it will do until I get my new case.

I might change my screws. I don't know though I'm kind of starting to like the silver screws. I think they add a nice look.
