EK Waterblocks adds three new models of their EK-XLC Predator series using 140mm and 280mm EKWB CoolStream radiators. EK Waterblocks proudly introduces the EK-XLC Predator 140 and EK-XLC Predator 280 models.
EK-XLC Predator Series Features
- Hovercore revolutionary radiator de-coupling design that effectively prevents the transfer of pump induced vibrations from the unit to the computer chassis resulting in vibration-free and silent operation.
- Supremacy MX CPU water block, top performer in Enthusiast segment, is specifically designed for Intel CPUs and offers great hydraulic and thermal performance. Carefully machined copper base is made from purest copper available and is further polished to absolute mirror finish.
- CoolStream CE Series radiators with full copper core for superior heat dissipation versus aluminum-based radiators.
- Vardar high-static pressure fan developed in-house specifically for liquid cooling systems. Features low noise profile and PWM technology with smart RPM control for silent operation while maintaining excellent cooling performance.
- EK-SPC pump is a powerful 6W liquid cooling pump providing 2-3x higher flow rate compared to other AIOs on the market. Its also PWM controlled, allowing for automatic pump speed regulation depending on your CPU temperature
- Integrated Fan splitter hub reduces cable clutter and keeps the unit aesthetically clean. Predator pump and fans plug into the unit itself with only one PWM cable going into CPU Fan socket, while a single SATA molex cable powers the complete unit.
