Just check that it will fit in your case because it really is huge.After rinsing out the water block with distilled water and attaching it to my loop I powered on my PC and booted into Windows. My PC case is reversed so I can see the acrylic side of the card, which I actually prefer to the matte black rear of the card.What really caught me off guard was the sheer size of this card - it is absolutely enormous compared the 980 Ti! It's still a dual slot width card but the card dimensions are 278 x 165 mm compared to my 980Ti which was 266.7 x 111.15 mm. The back of the card has a matte black metal finish, also with the 'MSI dragon' printed on it. On the front of this card the water block has a large amount of see-though acrylic and a metal panel with 'MSI dragon' printed on it.

I purchased the MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Sea Hawk EK X edition, which is the model that comes with the attached EK water block to go with my custom loop (as these reviews seem to consolidate a number of different models).First of all the water block itself is stunning to look at and looks considerably nicer than my EVGA 980 Ti with EK water block that it replaced.
