Description

OptiFlow Cooling Engine EK-Quantum Velocity 2 series CPU water blocks embed the next generation cooling engine named OptiFlow. They use a specific combination of mounting pressure and coldplate geometry tailored for the IHS and die layout of Intel LGA 1700 socket processors. Low hydraulic flow restriction enables these products to be used in setups using weaker water pumps or lower pump speeds for added silent operation. EK-Matrix7 The EK- Quantum Velocity 2 is an EK-Matrix7 compatible product. The EK-Matrix7, a product raster that is bound to set a new standard. EK is adding a new dimension to PC liquid cooling, where the height of products and the distance between ports are managed by increments of 7mm. This improves product alignment and reduces the time spent planning the loop and bending tubes. EK- Quantum Velocity 2 Patent-pending Mounting EK-Exact Mount is a patent-pending mounting system designed and engineered by EK in the search for an easy-to- use, but aesthetically pleasing mounting mechanism. It's made up of only three pieces - backplate, mounting screws, and the water block itself. It's screwed in from the back allowing for a seamless and clean front aesthetic without any screws disrupting the harmony of shape.

  • Double check the block - decide on positioning
The media could not be loaded. This block is working great. Installed about 1 month ago and has been fine. The block idles at about 31c-34c and on load is about +10c. It's cooling an i9 13900KS overclocked on an ROG hero. Just pick your positioning before you go to town on setting it up.

  • Keep my core I9 cool!
Overclocked core I9 never once have my attempts been anywhere over 60° C when stress testing.

  • Amazing Cooling Performance
Out of all of my water blocks, this one was the best out of them all keeping my 12900k at 30c-40c idle, and below 80c on heavy load. Also amazing RGB Effects

  • It works well
With regard to: EKWB EK-Quantum Velocity 2 CPU Water Block D-RGB - 1700, Nickel/Plexi: Compared to an AIO, a custom loop will always be more difficult to install maintain than any other cooling solution and this cooling block is no exception. In particular this block is harder that most to install because the block fasteners are accessed from the bottom side of the mother board. You really need to have a reasonable torque wrench/driver to tighten the block properly. I used this from Amazon: "FIRSTINFO H5178 Precision Certified Torque Limiting Screwdriver" to tighten the fasteners. It's a good one. Consider the purchase price of this tool to be part of the cost of building a custom loop. Once installed, this block works quite well, better than any I've used in the recent past. I must mention that the thermostat in my home is set to 28C but even so, this block handily out-performs any AIO I've tried. In my case, the best AIO I tried was getting to 100C at a reported CPU power of 335+ watts with Cinebench R23 and OCCT Power stress test. With this cooler, said stress tests do not exceed 90C and in games, it is never more than about 65C and never exhibits any thermal/power throttling. So it is at least 10C better than all others I have tried. Also, the overall loop is very quiet; even at full load, it is barely audible. This is partly because with a custom loop you can use a much bigger radiator with larger, slower fans all of which is quite important for noise. The build quality of this block is quite good and is aesthetically pleasing though it uses D-RGB and many boards do not support D-RGB explicitly. My board, an Asus Rog Strix z790-E has connectors that might work but I didn't want to risk damaging the board to test this. I am not a fan of RGB so I just removed the strip entirely; it's easy to do, a good riddance and I didn't look back. I do recommend this block though you might want to consider a "Watercool HEATKILLER IV PRO CPU Water Block" which has equivalent or better performance and is actually a bit less expensive. ... show more

  • POORLY DESIGNED BACKPLATE ALLOWS CONTACT TO SHIFT . POOR THERMALS WILL RETURN IN DAYS
This waterblock by itself will not prevent thermal throttling with a cpu such as i9-13900ks . Then again , unless you de lid and go direct die none of them will ! It will however do a pretty good job when compared to other lga1700 waterblocks . However I gave low score due to the very poor design of the backplate . This aluminum backplate is simply too thin and flimsy to offer reliable contact between cpu IHS and the waterblock itself . I put together my system and the initial results were pretty good .....IT DID NOT STAY GOOD FOR LONG . Within 3 weeks I would watch the temps shoot into thermal throttling immediately when starting cinebench 2024 . If you dont mind taking your PC apart once a week to re mount the waterblock then this is a good choice . Over a three week period I watched the thermal performance slowly degrade a little each day as the flimsy backplate allowed the face of waterblock to shift and no longer contact the face of IHS . This despite the fact I do use a contact frame to mount the cpu to the motherboard . Overall this waterblock is a failure and absolutely not worth even half what they are charging for it ! ... show more

  • works wwith LGA and LGA 1851
Apparently from the EKWB site, this water block works with LGA 1700 as well as the new LGA 1851 CPU for the Z890 chitset boards. Will find out.

  • Used sold as “New”
I was very disappointed to find the packaging already opened. Upon inspection, there was residual clear coolant inside the water block. All the plastic had been removed and put back on. The thermal plate underneath looked like thermal paste was once applied and other items were missing out of the packaging. ... show more
