Hi guys.
After purchasing Alphacool Eiswolf 2 for my EVGA 3080Ti FTW3 card I found it totally disappointing in terms of the performance. I reassembled the card+waterblock 5 times to achieve even contact all over the components to be cooled (1.25mm pads instead of stock 1.0mm for mosfets and video memory.).And the final results are very close to EVGA's stock air cooler (except memory which is 8 degrees lower now)
Eventually I decided to switch to the custom liquid-cooling loop that would include thick 240x45 Alphacool's X-flow radiator + original Eiswolf's 360x30mm with stacked push-pull pressure optimized fans. Apparently another pump was required. Since I'm quite limited concerning midtower case free space Laing DDC seemed to be an obvious solution. Plus Alphacool's top-reservoir Eisstation DDC. With overall height of ~90mm and side positioned fittings it supposed to be a perfect match to fit the space under the graphics card.
Today I was delivered the pump... The model number is DDC - 2CVTP (google search has nothing to say about it)
Now try to feel the depth of my frustration. I picked to most powerful model that was in stock. And smth tells me that it won't fit the Eisstation DDC case height wise. Could you pls comment did this particular model ever pass compatibility check with Eisstation DDC?
