EK-Vector Series
The EK Vector Series water blocks feature the Open Split-Flow cooling engine design that delivers superior cooling performance in GPU blocks compared to other designs. It is characterized by low hydraulic flow restriction which allows even weaker pumps and pumps running on low-speed settings to be efficient and achieve optimum cooling potential. The jet plate and fin structure geometry have been optimized to provide even flow distribution with minimal losses and optimal performances even when used in reversed water flow scenarios.
The base of the EK-Vector water block is CNC machined out of nickel-plated electrolytic copper while the top is CNC machined out of glass-like acrylic material depending on your model of choice. Sealing is ensured by high-quality EPDM O-rings. The brass standoffs are already pre-installed and allow for a safe and easy installation procedure.
