EK Water Blocks (EKWB) has announced its new EK-Quantum Vector Red Devil water block made for the PowerColor Red Devil version of the AMD Radeon RX 6800, RX 6800 XT, and 6900 XT graphics cards. This 2nd-generation EK-Quantum Vector water block implements an Open Split-Flow cooling engine design, which proved to be a superior solution for GPU water blocks. It is characterized by low hydraulic flow restriction, meaning it can be used with weaker water pumps or pumps running on low-speed settings and still achieve top performance. The jet plate and the fin structure geometry have been optimized to provide even flow distribution with minimal losses and optimal performance when used in any given coolant flow orientation, unlike some currently available products on the market.
The base of the block is CNC-machined out of nickel-plated electrolytic copper, while its top is CNC-machined either out of glass-like cast acrylic or durable black POM acetal. The watertight seal is ensured by high-quality EPDM O-rings, while brass standoffs are pre-installed and allow for a safe and easy installation procedure.
Current Compatibility List for the EK-Quantum Vector Red Devil RX 6800/6900 Water Blocks:
EKWB recommends purchasing an aluminium retention backplate, which improves the overall aesthetics of your graphics cards and provides additional passive cooling. Cooling is provided for the PCB behind the GPU core, the backside of the VRAM, and the backside of the printed circuit board VRM section on PowerColor RX 6800, 6800 XT, and 6900 XT GPUs. It comes in anodized black or nickel-plated variant.
The EK-Quantum Vector Red Devil RX 6800/6900 GPU water blocks and backplates are available for pre-order through the EKWB Online Shop and the dedicated reseller network. They are expected to start shipping out in mid-August 2021. In the table below, you can see the manufacturer suggested retail prices (MSRP).
