EK Water Blocks EK-AIO 120 D-RGB Komplett-Wasserkühlung - schwarz

Product Information

The tubing is covered with a nylon braided sleeving for a premium appearance and at the pump side of the tubing are articulating 90° fittings with diamond-cut aluminium covers. EK has used standard fan and RGB connections so there are no additional fan hubs or RGB controllers to install which means cable management is simplified, something which we really like. EK-Vardar S is our first choice for radiator cooling, providing unmatched cooling performance, with fully integrated and customizable D-RGB lighting. I think this could indicate an issue with the heat transfer, either caused by insuficient liquid flow or inadequate contact between the cold plate and IHS.

As back in end of December 2020 when I got the i9 10900K and the NZXT Z73 360, with Cinebench23 running for 10 minute all core 5Ghz the best it could cool it was 87C. The reflective EK logo provides the only aRGB lighting accent on the pump housing, taking a ‘less-is-more’ approach on lighting accents.

Even though the EK-AIO is a stylish looking cooler with its dual RGB lighting zones and industrial looking square fans, it's not a complicated device to use. To reflect current hardware demands, the KitGuru test bench comprises of an Intel Z390 platform and included is the Intel Core i9-9900k CPU, mated with a Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Master motherboard and 16GB (2x 8GB modules) Patriot Viper RGB RAM running at 3600mhz CL16.

Today, we’re reviewing the EK AIO 360 and 240 closed-loop liquid coolers for thermals, noise, noise-normalized thermals, coldplate levelness, efficacy on Intel and AMD platforms, and more. At TechNextDay, we’re not only a seller of PC components, but also a partner in your passion for computing. Now the only way around that would to rotate the block 180 degrees which would put your tubes in the other side of the ram. Also comes with a fan/rgb hub for the fans and rgb to make it more convenient for you and keep your cables a little bit neater in your case. That said, before singing any praises, it might be prudent to take a closer look at our testing of the new EK 360 mm AIO.

With that being said, the radiator is cool to the touch (even when the CPU TTs at 100 degrees Celsius) so it could be an issue with the heat transfer. Dynamic Addressable D-RGB lighting - Customize your EK AIO to match your set-up with its range of fully addressable D-RGB lighting effects. It is a very understated design featuring a completely plain black coating with no sign of any branding or logos in sight. Did you know that they actually have some AIO closed-loop CPU cooling products already available on the market too?
