Review on 💧 Phanteks Glacier G2080Ti Strix GPU Waterblock for Asus ROG Strix RTX 2080/2080Ti - Nickel-Plated, Acrylic, Addressable RGB – Black - PH-GB2080TiAS_BK01 by John Kahsar

Something to like. Aesthetically it looks nice. It uses a factory ground plane so you don't have to spend another $50 like you would for an EKWB unit. For the price, this is a much better option than EKWB. ARGB is good but a little weak and the instructions on how to connect it aren't very good. It doesn't use a standard connector, it uses a Corsair or MSI connector BUT it's only a 3 pin connector. So if you use ASUS devices like me, you can control it by plugging it into any of the ports mentioned above. to connect it to your controller. The design introduces air bubbles every time I deflate and refill, but a little tipping and rocking keeps it even. All that aside, most importantly, with the cooling this thing offers compared to the factory 3 fans, I was able to overclock the GPU an additional 80GHz over the limit I was previously running it at (2040GHz in water versus 1960 GHz in air). Overall excellent.
