Technical details

Special mounting kit with concealed springs for alphacool coolers as well as coolers of external manufacturers

The CoolCover mounting kit has two special features: Technically seen it simplifies the setting of the maximal uniform pressure of all four springs. Concerning the Design, the optically unhandsome springs disappear from the viewer´s eye, resulting so a harmonious general view in the midst of the water-cooler.

The highest possible contact pressure is reached by adjusting the casing length with the shortest, minimal spring deflection if the spring has completely disappeared in the casing. Thus a complete even pressure distribution is also guaranteed.

Due to their special length, the knurled nuts made of massive brass are easily operated by hand. Through a recessed lap joint at the lower end of the knurled nut, a clean and symmetrical connection can be obtained by shifting the casing and knurled nut - engagement snaps into place audibly.

The Coolcover is suitable for all alphacool CPU coolers and coolers of other manufacturers.
By the accompanying three different screw lengths, different heights can be fitted to the thread depth of the Coolcover - knurled nut adjustment - for each individual case the original connection material can also be suited with coolers from other manufacturers and so obtain the right combination. With the Coolcover high M4 thread depth of maximum 17mm - the knurled nut should allow every possible combination*


Practical and safe mounting plate: The mounting plate screws are secured against coincidental release by a high lock nut plus lock washer. As a result of the high design of the screw nut this can be tightened comfortably and firmly by simply using the fingers. The screw is fixed during the assembly of the screw nut by merely using the enclosed hexagonal pin spanner. Thus are void dangerous assemblies with screwdriver and pliers, which could damage the Main board when slipping.

*When using other feathers we urge you to consider: spring diameter, casing length/ inner diameter, spring length and minimum spring deflection.

Characteristics in the overview:

- Knurled nut and casing made of solid brass
- Even pressure distribution without technical aids
- Use of the shortest, minimal spring deflection
- Attractive Design by occlusion of springs

EK-FC1080 GTX FTW is a high-performance full-cover water block for EVGA® GeForce GTX 1080 FTW series graphics cards. Please check our Cooling Configurator online compatibility system for detailed compatibility list! 

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-FC1080 GTX FTW water block features a central inlet split-flow cooling engine design for best possible cooling performance, which also works flawlessly with reversed water flow without adversely affecting the cooling performance. Moreover, such design offers great hydraulic performance allowing this product to be used in liquid cooling systems using weaker water pumps.

The base of the block is made of nickel-plated electrolytic copper while the top is made of quality POM Acetal material. The sealing is ensured by quality rubber washers. Screw-in brass standoffs are pre-installed and allow for a safe and painless installation procedure.

EK Water Blocks recommends the purchase of aesthetic retention backplate (EK-FC1080 GTX FTW Backplate - Black, Nickel) which improves the looks of your graphics cards and also provide some passive cooling to the circuit board VRM section.

G1/4" threaded fittings can be used on both sides of the FC Terminal. Up to four EK-FC1080 GTX FTW water blocks can be used on a single ATX form factor motherboard by using EK-FC Terminal (DUAL, TRIPLE or QUAD type) system or other means of interconnectivity. Please note that EK-FC Bridge & Link system is not compatible with this water block.

We recommend EK-Cable PWM Fan Adapter for GPU for connecting your GPU to PWM-enabled fans in your custom loop and thus controlling the PWM profiles based on the graphics card temperature.

Enclosed:
- EK-FC1080 GTX FTW series water block 
- Mounting mechanism with screw-in brass standoffs
- Necessary mounting screws, nuts and washers
- 2x EK plug G1/4”
- 6mm Allen key
- Thermal pads
- Thermal grease EK-TIM Ectotherm (1g)
