EK-Quantum Momentum² Aorus Z790 Master X D-RGB – Plexi
This is a complete all-in-one (CPU and motherboard) liquid cooling solution for Intel’s 12th, 13th, and 14th Gen processors. The monoblock seamlessly aligns with the LGA 1700 socket on the Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Master X motherboard. The monoblock’s unique design, incorporating a specialized metal cover over the I/O section, is noteworthy. This cover serves a dual purpose: it facilitates the mounting of the stock I/O cover without compromising the factory-intended RGB lighting of the motherboard while also functioning as an elegant stand for the original LCD screen.
Powered by the latest generation EK Velocity² cooling engine, this monoblock excels in CPU cooling without compromising flow to other components. Specifically engineered for the Intel Raptor Lake CPU and VRM section, liquid flows directly over critical areas, making it an ideal choice for enthusiasts seeking high and stable overclocks. True to EK’s commitment to design excellence, the EK-Quantum Momentum² Aorus Z790 Master X boasts a high-flow design, making it compatible with weaker water pumps or lower pump speed settings.
High-End Materials
Crafted with precision, the monoblock base is made of nickel-plated electrolytic copper, ensuring efficient heat transfer, while the top is constructed from quality cast acrylic material. Pre-installed nickel-plated brass screw-in standoffs allow for easy installation, streamlining the setup process for users.
The monoblock features sophisticated D-RGB lighting with 20 LEDs, offering a customizable lighting experience for every diode at any given time. The lighting connects seamlessly to Gigabyte RGB Fusion 2.0 control, providing users with unparalleled customization options. A Digital (addressable) 3-pin 5 V D-RGB LED strip is installed in the monoblock, connecting to the motherboard’s 3-pin LED header, or it can be connected to any other supported 5 V 3-pin LED controller. The arrow marking on the 3-pin D-RGB LED connector is to be aligned with the +5V marking on the addressable D-RGB header.
