EK Waterblocks introduced two new liquid cooling solutions today; a full-cover waterblock for reference-based GeForce GTX 660 graphics cards and a watercooling product for the ASUS Crosshair V Formula(-Z) motherboard.
EK-FC660 GTX is a high performance full-cover water block for nVidia reference GeForce GTX 660 series (GK106 based) graphics card. This water block directly cools the GPU, RAM as well as VRM (voltage regulation module) as water flows directly over these critical areas thus allowing the graphics card and it's VRM to remain stable under high overclocks. EK-FC660 GTX water block also features a very high flow design therefore it can be easily used in liquid cooling systems using weaker water pumps. Base is made of nickel plated electrolytic copper while the top is made of quality cast, satin finished acrylic material. Screw-in brass standoffs are pre-installed and allow for safe, painless installation procedure. Up to four EK-FC660 GTX series water blocks can be interconnected with EK-FC Bridge & Link system.
EK-FB ASUS C5F-Z is a complete water cooling solution for ASUS Crosshair V Formula(-Z) motherboard. This waterblock directly cools AMD 990FX northbridge chip and power regulation (VRM / MOSFETs) module. It sports a high flow water block design that can be easily used with systems using weaker water pumps. Tis product features pre-installed screw-in standoffs for easy installation, moreover this product is intent to be run without the backplates. The southbridge chip SB950 remains cooled by factory (ASUS) provided heat-sink. This product is available in Nickel Acetal and Copper Acetal variant with MSRP of 64.95- and 64.95€.
