EK Water Blocks EK-Pro GPU WB RE RTX 3080/3090 - Nickel + Inox – Full-cover water block for graphics cards EK Water Blocks EK-Pro GPU WB RE RTX 3080/3090 - Nickel + Inox is a full-cover water block that spans the entire length of the graphics card. The coolant is channelled directly over the GPU core, memory and voltage regulation module (VRM), so all critical components are cooled within a single loop. The cold plate is CNC-machined from nickel-plated electrolytic copper. The dimensions are 230.2 x 152.6 x 22 mm. A matching backplate for the rear of the graphics card is already included. Key Features Open Split-Flow cooling engine: The flow is split across the fin structure. This keeps flow restriction low, so weaker or slow-running pumps are sufficient as well. GPU, VRAM and VRM in one block: Coolant flows directly over the graphics chip, memory and voltage regulation module – not just the core. Nickel-plated surface: The nickel plating protects the base material and provides an even, long-lasting appearance. EPDM gasket: The internal EPDM gasket grips the tube and keeps the connection permanently sealed. Check compatibility: EK recommends checking the exact fit for your graphics card in the EK Cooling Configurator beforehand. CNC-machined cold plate: The electrolytic copper base ensures rapid heat transfer. Nickel + Inox version: Matches fittings and components with the same finish.

EK-Quantum Vector FTW3 RTX 3080/3090 Active Backplate D-RGB - Acryl is a cutting-edge addition to the EK® Quantum Line. It is made to complement the existing EK-Quantum Vector FTW3 RTX 3080/3090 water blocks and actively cool the backside of all EVGA® GeForce RTX™ 3080 and 3090 FTW3 GPU. EK-Quantum Vector FTW3 RTX 3080/3090 Active BackplateThe EK-Quantum Vector FTW3 RTX 3080/3090 Active Backplate comes with a new terminal that replaces the stock terminal arriving with the Vector water block and links the water block and Vector Active Backplate into a single unit. This way, the whole enclosure requires only one inlet and one outlet, removing unnecessary additional tubing and reducing clutter. It is the ultimate aesthetic and performance solution that finds your GPU sandwiched between two water blocks, allowing maximum cooling. The Vector Active Backplate directly cools the PCB hotspots that are found on the backside of the GPU core and the VRM (voltage regulation module). On the RX 3090, the VRAM located on the backside is cooled, while the RTX 3080 gets cooling for the PCB located around the front-mounted VRAM. Cooling liquid is channeled over all these critical areas. These newly developed active backplates feature a fin array with 8 wide channels allowing for very low flow restriction. This in turn allows overall lower temperatures, while the active backplate gets more than sufficient surface area for heat transfer. The base of the active backplate is CNC-machined out of nickel-plated electrolytic copper, while its top is CNC-machined out of glass-like cast Acrylic. The rest of the backplate is made of nickel-plated aluminum and it does not come in contact with the liquid. These Vector Active Backplates also feature acrylic terminals that match the top cover. The watertight sealing is ensured by high-quality EPDM O-rings.

Cooling liquid is channeled over all these critical areas. These newly developed active backplates feature a fin array with 6 wide channels allowing for very low flow restriction. This in turn allows overall lower temperatures, while the active backplate gets more than sufficient surface area for heat transfer. The base of the active backplate is CNC-machined out of nickel-plated electrolytic copper, while its top is CNC-machined out of glass-like cast Acrylic. The rest of the backplate is made of nickel-plated aluminum and it does not come in contact with the liquid. These Vector Active Backplates also feature acrylic terminals that match the top cover. The watertight sealing is ensured by high-quality EPDM O-rings.
