All of Corsair's liquid cooling units are rebranded Asetek or Cool It units. Is the CPU heatplate round => Asetek, Square => Cool It. This is true of the majority of closed-loop coolers of the market as well, not just Corsair but most brands only buy from one or the other. Corsair buys from both.
looking at the gallery the side panel seems to be riveted, so I assume the install process will involve connecting the card to the PCIe riser and installing the card+riser as a single unit. I'd guess doing so shouldn't be much worse than the fiddling involved in getting a normally mounted card in place. Stick the utputs through the case with the card angled up in front and then lower it down to seat the PCIe connection.
The Bulldog includes a flexible PCIe ribbon extension cable. Bulldog's dimensions make it a little more fiddly than a full tower and you have to keep PCIe cable routing in mind when you install your card, but it's not so bad.
I've been swapping cards in and out of Bulldog 2.0 over and over for the past few months, including some liquid cooled ones. ;)
The photoshopping of that last image is really messing with my brain. The lower line of the case on the left side makes it look like you're looking at a cube case from the front.

It's small, somewhat ugly and packs a lot of muscle - fits its name well!DanNeely - Wednesday, January 11, 2017 - link
