I can release the MOBO model, but the thing is, it's basically boxes and plates..

I basically took all the measurements and visualize them.
How did you go about measuring the motherboard? What tools did you use?

Looking forward to when you have this available So well designed and hopefully helps fix my grip with the M.2 temps.

Update March 26, 2018

I made some pages to view the waterblock in 360°:
https://trade1461748123.github.io/clear-acrylic.html
https://trade1461748123.github.io/frosted-acrylic.html
https://trade1461748123.github.io/full-copper.html

:p they will be on the product page when I start selling them!

Hi, that's a great waterblock, when I asked EKWB by email, the height of the inductors between Z270i and Z370i are different,,
EK told me that on Z370i the monoblock wont make contact with the inductor, so need to stack more Thermalpad to make conntact with tthe block,, https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-fb-asus-z270i-strix-rgb-monoblock-nickel

does the liquid also cooling the M.2 and the chipset? or only passive cooling?

Yes the inductora have different heights, but they don't really need cooling anyways since they don't generate much heat.

The chipest and M.2 are Watercooled as well!

Could you send me the shop/person that's making your block? I'm considering doing one for an x99e-itx

Now we need someone to make this for x299. I really hope you can make this compoblock work!
I'm still prototyping my block, but the good news is it should be ready before next week finishes. After that I might look into making some blocks for other motherboards since I will have a lot of time during the summer ;). But for now, I gotta study for my finals XD.
