EKWB Wets the Asus Rampage IV Black Edition
EKWB has announced a water cooling block kit for Asus' Rampage IV Black Edition motherboard.
EKWB has announced a new water cooling kit for a motherboard; this time it's for the Asus Rampage IV Black Edition. It will be known as the EK-FB KIT ASUS R4BE.
The water cooling kit is built to cool all the critical components of the motherboard, which includes the VRM circuitry and the X79-Express chipset. Because these two are not located close enough together in a viable path, EKWB has opted to use two water blocks rather than one larger block.
As always, the water blocks feature the high-flow design, meaning that they can be used in conjunction with weaker pumps or in longer, more complex loops.
Included in the packaging are the two water blocks, a few thermal pads, and of course the mounting mechanism. The kits will also be available in six different versions, as detailed in the table below:
SKU | MSRP (EUR) | MSRP (USD) |
---|---|---|
EK-FB KIT ASUS R4BE | 104,95€ | $143.60 |
EK-FB KIT ASUS R4BE - Acetal | 104,95€ | $143.60 |
EK-FB KIT ASUS R4BE - Nickel | 114,95€ | $157.30 |
EK-FB KIT ASUS R4BE - Acetal+Nickel | 114,95€ | $157.30 |
EK-FB KIT ASUS R4BE - Nickel (Original CSQ) | 114,95€ | $157.30 |
EK-FB KIT ASUS R4BE - Acetal+Nickel (Original CSQ) | 114,95€ | $157.30 |
The kits will be available starting early January 2014.
