Open Box EK-Quantum Vector² Strix/TUF RTX 4090 D-RGB - Nickel + Acetal - ACTIVE BACKPLATE (Black)

EK-Quantum Vector² Strix/TUF RTX 4090 D-RGB ABP Set - Nickel + Acetal

Experience top-tier liquid cooling performance with the EK-Quantum Vector² Strix/TUF RTX 4090 D-RGB ABP Set - Nickel + Acetal, designed specifically for ASUS ROG Strix and TUF RTX 4090 graphics cards. This advanced set combines a high-performance GPU water block with a state-of-the-art active backplate, creating a unified enclosure that delivers exceptional cooling across the GPU core, VRAM, VRM, and PCB hotspots. Its robust construction features a thick nickel-plated copper cold plate and a sleek acetal top, ensuring durability and efficient heat dissipation. The subtle D-RGB lighting integrated along the block’s edge brings vibrant, customizable illumination to any build without overpowering the sophisticated, minimalist aesthetic. The innovative Direct Link 4-port terminal enables versatile loop configurations, while EK-Matrix7 support streamlines installation, ensuring precision alignment for both horizontal and vertical GPU mounts

Technical and Visual Master Piece

The new look of the next-gen water blocks is dominated by minimalistic straight lines. A 10mm thick copper cold plate and a full-sized backplate water block are used for all Vector² GPU Active Backplate cooling enclosures. The Acetal version of the Vector² GPU water blocks are all black and stealthy but are still equipped with a sophisticated Addressable RGB light guide that goes around the entire water block, making an elegant visual effect even on the backside.

EK-Matrix7 Support

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.

Direct Link Terminal

These new Vector² GPU water block and active backplate sets feature a Direct Link flow solution, the first multiple block solution to implement a conventional 4-port terminal layout. That allows serial and parallel connections from adjacent or opposing sides of the block. It was made possible by the addition of a machined brass insert in the terminal itself that diagonally links the water block directly to the active backplate inside the acetal terminal. Direct Link proves invaluable when flexibility is required for the right setup, like in a case of a distribution plate or vertical GPU mount.

Rotatable Magnetic Covers

Sleek magnetic covers are used to conceal the terminal screws, which allows rotation of the branding when the GPU water block and active backplate enclosure are inverted in the case or being used on a vertical GPU mount.

Addressable D-RGB Compatibility

A dense D-RGB LED strip illuminates the parting line of the stand-out element on both sides of the block. This subtle effect allows vivid displays of color while the block remains entirely black. 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).
