Waterblock for OEM RTX 3080?

Hi , I'm looking for a waterblock for the Dell OEM RTX 3080. Anyone tried which is suitable?

I can confirm the Bykski reference version waterblock works. I just finished assembling without issues. I'm still working out the loop, but definitely standard reference PCB. I assume any other reference card waterblock will work. 

I'm case swapping though. The standard case design is pretty bad, and I don't think there would be enough space for a proper loop. I switched over to the metallicgear neo qube ( Lian Li O11 D)

Cheers!

Thanks. I upgraded the mobo as well for an asus dark hero. Going for a darker theme. RGB only on the cpu waterblock, the reservoir (Ek flt 360), ram, and top fans. The rest is as blacked out as I can get it. I'm just in the middle of leak testing. So far so good. Will definitely post pics as soon as all up and running.

Cheers!

Alright. Here's where I'm at! Everything smooth so far. Just fresh installed Windows. CPU temp idle is low 30s and GPU temp is mid 20s. I'm running the ryzen 9 3900x, and the stock dual 16Gb 3200 ram kit. I have a spare 32Gb trident z 3200 kit that I'll try later. Set up is a 360 rad at the bottom (be quiet fans wings 3 fans) and a 360 top rad with 120ML pros. I still need some cable extensions for the GPU, but happy with the loop for now. Will provide more updates in future.

(Lol one top fan in wrong direction, fixed)

Thanks! You're right, I meant to type 240 bottom rad. The front is just the reflection. 

Cheers!

Ok, so other than enabling DOCP, and on Ryzen Master setting the default "creator" profile, here is my time spy score http://www.3dmark.com/spy/19398076. No GPU OC yet.

Nice @Ixquin 

My EVGA 3080 gives 17.3k at 59°, you have 17.44k at 55°, 4° better.

You should have quite some OC room there I am Aircooled GPU.

Hello,

         I would not water block this card, it only has 340 watts power limit, where as other have 400+ watts, unless dell release a bios update.
