Ocool waterblock

[ugiboy]

Hi, I am totally new to this forum, in fact I have never been on any forums so please be patient. I have just received a waterblock & backplate for my GTX590 from OCOOL, the instructions are very brief so does anyone know where I can get any from please. I have watched Tom's video but it does not deal with a backplate. I have never done any watercooling whatsoever before, bought a rig that already has it, I am upgrading (at least I think it is an upgrade from a HD6970. Hope to spending a lot of time on here. Hi to everyone, and like i mentioned please be patient with me.

Ocool? Do you mean alphacool? o.o

You can see why someone would make the mistake
I ran a google search of 'OCOOL' and all that really came up was this thread! I dismissed it as a mistake on my part, but I think you've cracked it

Are the bolts that come with the backplate longer than the ones for the waterblock? If so you probably just bolt through from the backplate into the waterblock. I.e. bolt -> backplate -> spacer -> pcb -> waterblock.

probabbly acool. The a looks like an o in the logo.

As Azurite said, it's more than likely Alphacool.

Sorry!!!!

Hi, Sorry for any confusion i may have caused. It is Alphacool I meant to put. It is a bit confusing because on my waterblock in copper coloured letters it says OCOOL. I have now installed my GTX590 with Alphacool waterblock & backplate, it was much easier than I thought. Just waiting for another block to be delivered to install my second GTX590. next on the list will be motherboard blocks & adding a second radiator. Thanks to everyone for being so friendly 7 patient with me.
