EK annuncia i Water Block GPU in edizione speciale per NVIDIA RTX 3070 Carte Ti Founders Edition
This water block comes with multiple ports, allowing great versatility. The performance is one of the key elements of the design, which is why this block features a 30% larger fin area compared to other water blocks from the Vector family.
EK-Quantum Vector FE Special Edition water blocks are the recipients of the renowned iF Design Award. The award-winning design encases the block in a 20 mm thick aluminium exoskeleton that forms a cradle to embed the cooling and lighting, rivelando all'utente solo gli elementi più belli. The distinctive PCB shape of the Founders Edition card posed a design challenge, but a terminal between the two prongs of the PCB solved the issue. The result is a unique and unprecedented GPU water block.
Special Edition EK Water Block for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Il picchiaduro in stile Smash Rivals of Aether sta ottenendo un sequel con grafica 3D
The EK-Quantum Vector FE RTX 3070 Ti D-RGB features a special PCB design just like its bigger brother, l'RTX 3080 FE. The small form factor and unique shape of the RTX 3070 Ti Founders Edition PCB presented the same engineering challenge and was solved via a Special edition block.
The water block is purpose-designed with an extremely thick copper base for high-performance, allowing it to clear all components of the densely-packed PCB and adding more heat removal capacity in the process. The cooling engine used in this water block is the largest EK has built to date, having roughly 30% more surface area than the rest of the existing Vector series water blocks.
A Testament To the Build Quality
Like the Magnitude CPU water block, the entirety of this water block is CNC-machined without mass-production techniques. The block’s base is milled out of a 12 mm thick piece of pure electrolytic copper sourced from Europe, which is then nickel-plated, while its top is CNC-machined out of a glass-like cast Acrylic material.
The external enclosure, which is not in any contact with the coolant, is machined out of a 20 mm thick solid piece of aluminium, which is afterward anodized into black or gray color, depending on the model. The included single-slot I/O shield is supplied with special screws for attaching it to the aluminium enclosure in order to even out the entire water block’s weight distribution. punti morti, mentre i distanziatori in ottone sono già preinstallati e consentono una procedura di installazione semplice e sicura.
Special Terminal Design
The water block is delivered with a terminal featuring 6 G1/4″ porti. Two direct G1/4″ ports on the side, and four G1/4″ ports going through it – two from the top, and two from the bottom. The new design allows terminals to be directly attached to the copper cold plate of the GPU water block, making it more rigid and reducing the chances of damage. The terminal is neatly located between two prongs on the PCB, utilizing minimal space. This kind of design allows for incredible versatility, especially for Small Form Factor builds, e naturalmente, more interesting aesthetics.
Cooling Engine
This Special Edition Vector water block directly cools the GPU, VRAM, e il VRM (modulo di regolazione della tensione) as cooling liquid is channeled right over these critical areas. The water block is in contact with MOSFETs and chokes to maximize cooling and minimize the chances of unwanted coil whine. The flow paths are also optimized to reduce hydrodynamic instabilities and vortexing (punti morti) punti morti.
The integrated Open Split-Flow cooling engine design proved to be a superior solution for GPU water blocks. È caratterizzato da una bassa limitazione del flusso idraulico, il che significa che può essere utilizzato con pompe dell'acqua più deboli o pompe che funzionano a basse velocità e ottenere comunque le massime prestazioni.
The jet plate and fin structure geometry are optimized to provide even flow distribution with minimal losses and optimal performance when used in any given coolant flow orientation. Fin array is populated by 31 microfins with 0.6 mm wide microchannels that provide exceptional cooling performance without unnecessary flow restrictions or clogging hazards.
Exclusive Founders Edition Backplate
This water block comes with an included backplate that makes sure the entire graphics card is enclosed and not at all visible. It also provides additional passive cooling for the GPU core and backside of the printed circuit board VRM section. Due to the small size of the card and the block itself, the ribbed backplate boasts an increased surface area for additional passive cooling power. It’s CNC-machined out of aluminium, which is either black-anodized or nickel-plated, depending on the version of the water block.
D-RGB Lighting on the EK-Quantum Vector FE RTX 3070 Ti D-RGB Water Block
This water block boasts a whopping 20 individually addressable D-RGB LEDs that illuminate both the water block’s interior and the terminal itself. It is compatible with all popular RGB Sync technologies from major motherboard manufacturers. Il contrassegno della freccia sul connettore LED D-RGB a 3 pin deve essere allineato con il contrassegno +5V sul D-RGB (indirizzabile) motherboard header.
Disponibilità e prezzi
