The new Vector² water blocks effortlessly solve the issue of excessive heat generation during high load on the GPU core, voltage regulation module, and the GDDR6X VRAM of the MSI Trio and MSI SUPRIM RTX 4080 Graphic cards.
The package now contains the following:
A black, full-coverage backplate is included with the GPU water block. Its distinctive L-shaped profile encloses the entire GPU and, at the same time, increases the cooling surface area. The backplate also comes with pre-installed captive backplate screws that simplify the installation. They ensure that the correct size screw is always used where needed.
Minimalistic straight lines dominate the look of the next-gen water blocks. An 10mm-thick copper coldplate is used for all Vector² GPU water blocks. For Plexi versions, D-RGB Lighting is now deployed on the longest edge of the water block for improved fidelity and brightness from every viewing angle. The LED PCB is concealed inside a clean aluminum extrusion.
Matrix7 standardizes the dimensions of the products, including the port position and spacing, making liquid cooling loop assembly more intuitive and easier. EK-Quantum Vector² GPU cooling enclosures follow the EK-Matrix7 standard, making them seamlessly integrate with EK-Quantum Reflection² distribution plates. This brings compatibility with the EK vertical GPU mount l perfect alignment of ports in both horizontal and vertical positions, meaning less time used for planning of the loop, bending tubes, and the end result will still be an epic build.
The EK-Quantum Vector² Trio RTX 4080 D-RGB - Nickel + Plexi GPU water block + backplate set is compatible with the following:
For a precise compatibility match of this water block, we recommend you refer to the EK Cooling Configurator.
The Vector² water block actively cools the GPU, VRAM, power stages, and passively the PCB hotspots that are found on the backside of the GPU core, VRAM, and the VRM (voltage regulation module).
The implemented Vector² cooling engine uses a novel 3D-machined acrylic insert to improve flow distribution and thermal performance. This new cooling engine is based on an Open Split-Flow design, but the asymmetric shape of the jet insert helps distribute an even flow between the first and last copper fins. The fin structure geometry has been optimized to provide even flow distribution with minimal losses and optimal performances even when used in reversed water flow scenarios. It is also characterized by low hydraulic flow restriction, meaning it can be used with weaker water pumps or pumps running on low-speed settings, and still achieve top performance.
Great care was taken to achieve a symmetrical flow domain by utilizing an internal bridge to secondary components. This was done to ensure the cooling of secondary components without sacrificing flow distribution over the GPU core.
All Vector² GPU water blocks use an 10mm-thick copper coldplate with an acetal terminal attached directly to it to create a robust assembly. A single O-ring design creates a seal between the coldplate and the water block top, reducing the number of failure points. This also means that you have previously seen the end of stainless-steel bridge plates utilized on GPU water blocks. A simple construction that provides confidence during customization and maintenance. Tactile magnetic covers are used to conceal the terminal screws, allowing the branding to rotate when the GPU is inverted in the case.
The coldplate is CNC-machined out of high-quality, pure electrolytic copper, which is then nickel-plated, while its top is CNC-machined out of glass-like cast acrylic. The black anodized backplate has a new L-shaped profile that connects with the water block base and encloses the entire GPU while increasing the cooling surface leading to even better performance.
For the first time, captive backplate screws are added to the backplate. They simplify installation, ensuring the correct length is always used where needed, preventing user errors or second-guessing.
The backplate improves your graphics card’s overall aesthetics and provides additional passive cooling for the backside of the printed circuit board VRM, core, and VRAM sections.
Sleek magnetic covers are used to conceal the terminal screws, allowing the branding to rotate when the GPU water block and active backplate enclosure are inverted in the case or used on a vertical GPU mount.
Addressable D-RGB LED lighting is deployed on the longest edge of the water block for improved uniformity and brightness. The PCB and diodes are concealed inside a clean aluminum extrusion. The individually-addressable RGB LED is compatible with popular RGB sync technologies from all major motherboard manufacturers. The arrow marking on the 3-pin D-RGB LED connector is to be aligned with the +5V marking on the D-RGB (addressable) header (Pinout: +5V | Data | Blocked | Ground).
EK’s premium water blocks from the Quantum Vector² product line boast one of the iF Design Awards for 2022. These prestigious awards signify top-tier design levels delivered by our products to both consumers and the design community. Not only do Vector² water blocks have aesthetically pleasing looks to deserve these awards, but they also bring patent-pending technologies and valuable features to the table.
Technical Specification:
- Dimensions (L x H x W): 307 x 155 x 27mm
- D-RGB LED count: 15
- D-RGB cable length: 50cm
- D-RGB connector 3-pin 5V digital LED header (Pinout: +5V | Data | Blocked | Ground)
A premium aesthetic terminal cover for EK-Quantum Scalar terminals, EK-Quantum Scalar accessories like the Flow Indicator, and a replacement cover for stock GPU terminals as well.
The cover is machined out of a solid piece of aluminum which is then anodized to a silver shade to give it a premium look and feel. The cover can be attached quickly and easily by using the integrated pin screws located on the backside of the terminal cover.
The prime purpose of the product is to provide a terminal cover for users with EK-Quantum Vector RE RTX 3080/3090, EK-Quantum Vector Trinity RTX 3080/3090, EK-Quantum Vector Trinity RTX 3070, EK-Quantum Vector Strix RTX 3080/3090, and similar GPU water blocks which have a single piece terminal, which is then replaced with an EK-Quantum Scalar Flow Indicator. The EK-Quantum Vector Terminal Cover will provide an aesthetically cover for the screws, which blends in with the water block and flow indicator perfectly.
In the same way, the EK-Quantum Vector Terminal Cover can provide an aesthetical shroud for the screws for multi GPU setups using any of the EK-Scalar Dual or EK-Scalar Quad terminals.
Finally, any user who wishes to reduce the number of RGB LED sources in his PC, can use the EK-Quantum Vector Terminal Cover to replace the stock plastic cover on water blocks that have the two-piece terminal design (acetal terminal + plastic cover).
