EK Water Blocks, Ljubljana based premium water cooling gear manufacturer, is proud to introduce the EK-FCQK5000, world's first water cooling solution for NVIDIA Quadro K5000 professional graphics card, the key part of NVIDIA Maximus Technology.
EK-FCQK5000 is a high performance full-cover water block for nVidia Quadro K5000 series professional graphics cards. 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 100% stable under any given workload. EK-FCQK5000 water block also features a high flow design therefore it can be easily used in liquid cooling systems using weaker water pumps.

Screw-in brass standoffs are pre-installed and allow for safe, painless installation procedure. Each EK-FCQK5000 water block comes with 1g packaging of Arctic Cooling MX-2 thermal grease (TIM).
