Question 1

Can I mount it on a EVGA 750TI Graphics card?

Accepted Answer

Most likely not. This is meant for a CPU - and a specific socket type at that. I doubt it would even cover the area of the water block that needed cooling. Phanteks does make some GPU water blocks. I would check to see if they have a compatible model.

Question 2

Would it be safe to pair this water block with the aluminum PH-GB1080TiAS_BK01?

Accepted Answer

have the asus variant of the block it’s my understanding that the internals are still nickel plated copper with the aluminum part being the black plates. I have run into some issues with fluids but my radiator seems to have been the problem there. Should be fine though

Question 3

What are the connector ports threaded at? I have looked all over but can't seem find what connectors I need to get for this beast

Accepted Answer

The fittings are standard G 1/4. I’m using phanteks’ fittings for it but and normal G 1/4 fittings that do not have extra length threads should work perfectly fine.

Question 4

isnt it bad to mix metals? will the nickel plated copper and aluminum mixture of metals in this block lead to corrosion?

Accepted Answer

Yes and no, and Phanteks knows that. What experts mean my mixing metals is that you do not want your distilled water to be running through different metals as it can carry materials from one metal to another that can corrode. Whereas, if the metals that the water touches are the same, they are a lot less likely to corrode. This is nickel plated - meaning that even though the base is copper, the only metal that touches the cooling fluid/water is nickel. The aluminum cover is, again, a cover (more of a bracket in this case), and not touching the cooling fluid. If the rest of the metals in your loop that touch your Collin fluid are nickel, then you have nothing to worry about if you perform routine maintenance.

Question 5

Will it fit LGA 2011, non V3? Such as an ASUS Rampage IV Formula?

Accepted Answer

Hmmm, not sure about non LGA 2011-3 versions. I'd suggest email Phanteks to find out and their compatibility listings on their site is a little barebones.

Question 6

Will this fit LGA 2066?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I called Phanteks and asked them this before I bought it for my X299 board. They confirmed it is compatible because the LGA 2066 socket matches the same specs of LGA 2011 including the mounting holes. Currently installed perfectly on my Asus X299 board.
