**NEW EK FLUID GAMING RANGE**

[Robbie_G]

Hi,

Many of you will know that a big computer event is happening right now called Computex so over the next week lot's of new products and ideas will be going around the internet.

EK have decided that they have heard a lot of people having concerns over pricing when it comes to trying to water cool your system. They have now come up with a way to try and help you with that and keep performance at a high.

They have released 3 retail kits as shown below.

The components are made up of aluminium to keep them light weight and cost effective which is how they are able to offer the kits out at a lower price than the copper blocks and slightly higher than an AIO cooler.

The performance is only a couple of degrees lower than the copper setups from our testing and marketing testing meaning these kits are really good for the money.

The basic gaming kit is based around a 120 AIO cooler but as a full loop so you can have a nice looking setup for your build for around £140.

The overclocking & gaming kit is aimed at anyone who likes to overclock the CPU to get the extra bit of performance. Coming in at under £170 it is only slightly more expensive than the Kraken X52 & X62 coolers.

The high end gaming kit includes the normal 240 radiator kit but has the addition of a GPU block which is compatible with 1070, 1080, 1080 Ti and Titan X pascal.

A lot of testing and research has gone into these kits to ensure that they perform to the highest standard and hopefully allow anyone wanting to water cool to finally get involved.

All Kits included the following:
- Universal CPU water block: EK-Supremacy AX (incl. thermal material)
- Radiator: EK-AluStream SE 120 (Slim Single)
- Radiator fan: EK-Vardar F3-120 (1850rpm) (either 1 or 2)
- Water pump-reservoir combo: EK-ACR SPC-60 PWM (incl. pump)
- Tubing: EK-DuraClear 9,5/12,7mm (3/8" - 1/2") (2 meters)
- Compression fittings: EK-ACF ALU Fitting 10/13mm (3/8" - 1/2") - G1/4" Black (6 pcs) (8 Pcs with GPU)
- Coolant: EK-CryoFule Clear Concentrate (100mL)
- Pump mounting for 120mm fan pattern
- EK-Cable Y-Splitter 3-Fan PWM (10cm)
- EK- Cable Pump testing adapter
- Pump extension cable (50cm)
- ATX bridging plug
- Allen key 8mm
- Installation manual

We are expecting stock Tuesday - Wednesday.

 

[Robbie_G]

We had the same concern so we tested it ourselves using a Titan X CPU and an I7-7700k in a phanteks elite case and it ran without issues. I'm not sure if the CPU was overclocked now as it was in December we tested it.

 

[Robbie_G]

Should you not mention that upgrading any parts of this kit ( as it is modular ) would have to be specifically Aluminium and nothing else.

Can see people whacking their own 360 copper radiator on this and wondering why it is gunked and dissolving in 6 months !

Not everyone knows about Galvanic corrosion

Done.

My review for those interested: https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/EKWB/Fluid_Gaming_240G_Kit/

I have all three kits here, the A240 and A240G really the way to go.

Great review thanks

 

[Robbie_G]

I am happy to put your feedback to them for sure. No harm in asking

 

[Robbie_G]

All Kits are now in stock and ready to ship.

[Robbie_G]

Would look great in my build I've got ready to put together... However I'm not that confident with DIY so to speak... are these pretty simple to set up and will the liquid need changing often

It looks harder than it actually is. As the kit comes with soft tubing it makes it much easier to fit together. If you are unsure about mounting the pump it maybe worth googling to see how other people have water cooled your case. All the parts are easy to fit into you case as long as the radiator is supported (size wise). A kit makes things much easier as you can see how it is put together before you buy and you don't have to shop around for every single component.

A side note please make sure you remove the cover from the bottom of the CPU block as it is easily forgotten.

 

[Robbie_G]

Water cooling looks so much better and not as hard to install as you may think. If you do buy a kit have fun.

Hi,

A review video has been put up and is a good watch.

 

[Robbie_G]

EK announced today that they would be releasing all separate parts by the end of the month.

https://www.ekwb.com/news/ek-fluid-gaming-portfolio-expansion-announcement/

 

[Robbie_G]

We have mentioned the 360G kits and a few reviewers have mentioned them so you never know. We have not had the list of parts being released yet but I will keep the thread updated as soon as I get the information.

 

[Robbie_G]

As mentioned above EK will be doing a configurator and we will be doing the same sort of thing but not as advanced. We will create one just to make all the options available in one place to avoid any confusion when ordering.

He these are additions to the 3 normal kits. It is not looking like they will release a 360 kit. I have not been told about any plans either.

 

[Robbie_G]

Shame, a 360G kit would have been a nice option.

I know. All we can do is keeping asking and hopefully they will give in

 

[Robbie_G]

Hi,

From comments I have seen on the Facebook page they have been saying no plans for Threadripper or AMD water blocks sorry.

 

[Robbie_G]

Wish they would hurry up and come out with the angled fittings so I can buy the the 240 and 360, I would like a bigger res though tbh.

Hopefully the fittings will be available on the next few weeks.

You can buy bigger tubes for the reservoir though if you wanted.
