GJ, i was too lazy to check them out as most people do not go for "pure China" brands.
It should work.
though i'm a bit confused with the seller having both Bykski and Barrow listed - it's two different companies.
If you are looking for those, do it on aliexpress - much cheaper.
I have some barrow fittings, res, D5 top and an older "universal" Bykski GPU...

ekwb.com has an extensive compatibility tool and they offer full cover blocks for most popular cards. If nothing else they'll have universal blocks that will likely fit.

If the card is a reference board with a custom cooler then you can get blocks from most suppliers.

Exact SKU (model number) would help in the search.
 
next time if you plan to go liquid, you should first check the availability of the block and only then pick a card.
this card is listed as not supported with no plans to support it on EK's site. that means you probably not going to find the block anywhere else.

My conclusion as well. I've tried looking for pictures of the bare board to see if it is similar to any other MSI models, but I am not having much luck.

That said, you could try some of the universal blocks, or an all-in-one kit. Not as good as full coverage, but really the most important part to cool is the GPU itself.

Not heard of them before. The website looks decent at least. But they say it is compatible if you read behind the terrible translation.

Looks like some people over on overclock.net have used their parts before, they didn't have any complaints it seems. As recently as a year ago.

Looks like they specialized in crazy setups like multiple CPU to make a name for themselves.

decent build quality, but nothing special.
here are cheaper sources:
