Hello Everyone,
I have recently acquired a Sapphire Dual-X R9 280X and am looking to water cool it. Now I am aware that this is a custom PCB design and that no full cover blocks have been made for it, but I also know that in general R9 280X's are just re-branded 7970 cards, so i was wondering if any of you knew if there is a 7970 card that has the same custom PCB design but did have a block made for it?
For example this covers a number of 7970 cards including sapphire ones:

Alternatively I found this thread which shows modding a cooler to fit a sapphire 7950 card, does it have the same custom PCB? could I do the same (or similar) mod?

Thankyou in advance for any responces.
Kind Regards
