Have you got huge piles of money that you’re just dying to spend on your new gaming rig? Perhaps the water cooling configuration of AMD’s latest dual-graphics card monster isn’t powerful enough for you and you’re brand new $1500 GPU? Well German based cooling nuts Aqua have the perfect solution for you with the release of their brand new water cooling block for the AMD Radeon R9 295X2, the Kryographics Vesuvius.
The new block looks stunning and while looks aren’t everything it is certainly a big win over the rather ugly Asetek cooling option which comes pre-installed, it also promises to provide direct cooling directly to the GPUs, all RAM chips, voltage regulators and the PCI bridge chip, so huge gains in cooling performance should be obtainable.
Milled from 2.72gk of high-purity electrolytic copper, which has been polished to perfection is topped off with a single piece milled Plexiglas cover, which has been mounted using a stainless steel frame to allow for even pressure distribution.
Available for around 169 EUR the block or 184.90 EUR for the nickel plated edition (coming soon), it certainly isn’t cheap, but when you’re spending big on a compatible graphics card, radiators, pumps and more, then you’re likely Scrooge McDuck anyway.
Thank you VideoCardz for providing us with this information.

It does look stunning but you’ll never get to see it if you mount it in an ATX case.
