Pros
This is an amazing buy for the price. Good quality metal. Decent backplate.
This is a product that is very easy, you just disassemble your video card. Purchased this block for a full corsair custom loop. Also, i have an icue commander pro, but this block came with an adapter in the box for the 3pin rgb.

Competitiveness
The xg7 rgb (rev b) is a perfect fit for my evga 2080 xc (reference) card.

Beware of evga ftw cards - which are normally longer than reference.
On previous block, ekwb missed lots of parts or had sub premium pads.
