Well FreeKnight... I was trying for a play on the "camera adds 10 pounds" expression, but I really should have seen that coming!
You returned the 2080Ti?! I see your reasoning but bummer. You've been wanting an upgrade for a good while. And good luck making your loop look better than mine! I've started this thread as a push to get me actually doing it. But mine will either turn out well because of the pressure or I'll have a very well documented disaster!
JD, the copper base looks pretty good out of the plastic bag. But the bag does look labelled for the Nickel. There is an (Ni) on the sticker you can just make out in the picture above. So perhaps it originally game with the copper mounted and that was swapped for the nickel at some point? Dunno. Over all though everything looks in good shape to me... you know, based on my vast experience with water cooling gear!
