EK-FB MSI X299 GAMING PRO CARBON RGB Monoblock
This monoblock is an all-in-one liquid cooling solution that offers cooling to the Intel Core-X Series processor for LGA 2066 and motherboard including the power regulation module or MOSFETs offering efficient CPU and VRM cooling. The monoblock uses EKWB’s award-winning EK-Supremacy EVO cooling engine.
With the higher cooling capacity of liquid cooling, a greater overclocking headroom offers more stable and higher overclocks. The monoblock features a high flow design that also provides efficient cooling even with weaker pumps. EKWB’s monoblocks for the X299 platform also features a redesigned cold plate that gives better mechanical contact with the IHS of the processor for better thermal transfer. The base of the monoblock is made of nickel-plated electrolytic copper while the top is made of quality acrylic glass material. The nickel plated brass screw-in standoffs are pre-installed and allow for easy installation.
