EK Water Blocks EK-Quantum Vector FE RTX 3080 D-RGB - Silver Special Edition

This GPU cooler from EK is a Special Edition, for the RTX 3080 Founders Edition graphics card. It features an advanced cooling engine based on the EK Quantum Vector 2nd generation. The water block has an extremely thick copper base - nickel-plated, mind you - which has a 30% larger cooling surface than the other Vector water blocks. The outer casing is made of solid and silver anodised aluminium. Naturally, the aluminium does not come into contact with the cooling liquid. The GPU cooler is rounded off with an acrylic lid, which provides a clear view of the inside, as well as a connection port on the side, which is also made of acrylic. Interesting here is that the connection terminal is on the short side, which has two G1/4" connections that go away from the cooler. Alternatively, the supplied connection terminal with four G1/4" connections can be mounted on the GPU cooler. Furthermore, the cooler also includes a backplate, which additionally cools the back of the graphics card passively. Together with the water block, the graphics card is completely enclosed and is virtually no longer visible from the outside. The back of the GPU cooler is also impressive, made of black anodised aluminium with an elegantly ribbed surface. Of course, a D-RGB illumination is not missing. This impresses with 20 individually addressable LEDs, which not only illuminate the interior stylishly, but also the acrylic terminal. The lighting is compatible with all common RGB sync technologies of the major motherboard manufacturers, such as ASRock Polychrome Sync, ASUS Aura Sync, Gigabyte RGB Fusion and MSI Mystic Light.
