New to Water Cooling

being new to water cooling and already having a premier graphics card with the ASRock 7900 XTX Taichi wasn’t upgrading anytime soon but manufacturers have moved on so Bykski was the only choice….definitely doesn’t disappoint very well made fit my card exactly as it should they give you all necessary hardware to complete the transformation to full water cooling.

Absolutely Unacceptable Mounting Hardware — AVOID Unless You Like DIY Rage

I was so ready to love this Bykski block for my 7900XTX Taichi. Solid machining, great aesthetics, and it looked like a good value—until I got to the mounting hardware. Let me be clear: the screws included are a complete joke. If you’re using even a single layer of thermal pads—let alone high-quality, non-compressible ones like Thermal Grizzly Minus Pad Pro—you’re out of luck. The provided screws assume a completely bare PCB with zero padding. No wiggle room, no headroom, no common sense. And if you’re planning to keep the backplate on (as anyone would for structural integrity and looks), forget it. Not even close to fitting. I had to go source my own longer screws from Amazon just to finish the job. That’s extra delay, extra cost, and extra headache for something that should be standard. It’s wild that a company making thermal products doesn’t account for… thermal pads. At this point, it feels like they just throw a handful of random hardware into a bag and hope you don’t notice. TL;DR: Block looks great, performance is probably fine once you get it installed—but the included screws are useless unless you like running your GPU raw. Either be ready to improvise, or buy something from a brand that actually QA’s their mounting kits.
