I can't seem to find any solutions that specifically cater to a 270X. The card I've got is an XFX AMD Radeon R9 270X 2GB Double Dissipation Edition. Everything else in the loop is taken care of, it's just the waterblock I need.

Budget is no issue, and the motherboard it's attaching to is a Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 in a Corsair 750D tower, for reference. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

it looks like no manufacture desighns watercoolers for this card.
but as for the link i posted above you can get a water block to cool the gpu and stick passive coolers on the vram.
only if you find someone that will kake you a cooler from scrach.
if you contact alphacool you might be able to get the cooler for free and desighn it for your gpu.
or find someone who has equitment that is able to make a cooler.
and you can desighn it the way you like but will cost quite a bit.

I've found a suitable waterblock. I think.

My last question is, would that fit an XFX variant of the card it's indicated to work for? I've found images of each one's PCB, it *looks* like they've got similar screw placements, but is there anything I'm missing?

Here's the XFX R9 270X that I'm running;

And here's the HIS Radeon R9 270X that the block was built for.
