Now I know water cooling has been discussed several times on this forum and i do currently water cool my processor and have decided I would like to water cool my 750Ti cards.

The issue I am having is there doesnt seem to be a lot of off the shelf water block assemblies that will support my cards and will cover both the GPU and memory chips.

I was hoping that several of you may point me in the right direction.

I did find the following that may do the trick https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-thermosphere-acetal-nickel

Below is a picture of the cards. They are ASUS with the single fan assembly.

For performance/Custom work like you seem to be looking for, then EK seems to me the best option. But consider that things are changing, the cost over the whole lifespan, and maybe, maybe not, you might find the best option might be going a higher model on air cooling. I don;t know the answer, just saying the options are probably rough right now if you're aiming for efficiency.

Honest question (not snark): since 750tis are not high end cards, why would they need water cooling? Or, to put it another way, why would anyone make a water cooling plate for it? Wouldn't the market be awfully small (like just OP)?

You are correct that 750Ti's arent exactly high end cards currently, but the idea of a bit of an engineering challenge to get them crunching that little bit harder appeals to me.

I have also thought of setting up a Peltier/Water Cooling hybrid just to see hat is possible.

Did you overclock them enough that fans can not keep up with heat generation?

The cards are very capable of overclocking easily and the fans to an OK job at cooling them but to achieve longevity of the cards is my ultimate goal. Also it will give me a good grounding for when I build my QUAD 1080 Goliath.

My suggestion, given the rumours that GP102 based Titan might include HBM2, would be to hold the phone, unless you have so much money that it doesn't matter :D

I would love to have so much money that it didnt matter, but I dont think the wife would let me sell the investment property to finance a few new machines.. Not sure why she wouldnt but that is my general feeling... ;)
