We revisit the RTX 2080 Ti Founders Edition cooler and disassembly for vindication, this time fully taking apart the cooler and revealing a few secrets along the way.

Part 1 of the tear-down is here:    • RTX 2080 Ti Founders Edition Tear-Dow...  

This tear-down revisits the cooler of the NVIDIA RTX 2080 Ti Founders Edition card. We show the glue holding it all together -- literally -- and employ a heat gun to help pry it apart. We also found RGB LED controllers and cables and more. For anyone looking to add water blocks to their RTX 2080 (Ti) reference cards, it is fortunately easy, and not much different from taking apart a GTX 1080 Ti. The PCB separates from the cooler, and the cooler does not need to be disassembled to install a custom water cooling block on the RTX 2080 cards. Unfortunately, servicing the fans for replacement or blowing dust out of the Founders Edition will be very difficult.
