EKWB Announces Preorder for EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW Water Blocks

EK Water Blocks, Slovenia-based premium computer liquid cooling gear manufacturer, is announcing Full-Cover water blocks for EVGA® GeForce® GTX 1080 FTW series graphics cards. Highly anticipated water blocks are now available for pre-order!

EK-FC1080 GTX FTW

This water block directly cools the GPU, RAM as well as VRM (voltage regulation module) as water flows directly over these critical areas, thus allowing the graphics card and it’s VRM to remain stable under high overclocks. EK-FC1080 GTX FTW water block features a central inlet split-flow cooling engine design for best possible cooling performance, which also works flawlessly with reversed water flow without adversely affecting the cooling performance. Moreover, such design offers great hydraulic performance allowing this product to be used in liquid cooling systems using weaker water pumps.

The base of the block is made of nickel-plated electrolytic copper while the top is made of quality acrylic material or POM Acetal material (depending on the variant). The top material does not affect the block performance in any way. The acrylic (plexi) top also features two pre-drilled slots for 3mm LED diodes.

 

EK-FC1080 GTX FTW Backplates are also available for pre-order (Nickel on the left, and Black on the left)
