EK-Quantum Vector RE RTX 3080/3090 Active Backplate - Acetal is a cutting-edge addition to the EK Quantum Line. It is made to complement the existing EK-Quantum Vector RE RTX 3080/3090 water blocks and actively cool the backside of a reference design NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 and 3090 GPU.EK-Quantum Vector RE RTX 3080/3090 Active BackplateEK-Quantum Vector RE RTX 3080/3090 active backplate links the water block and the active backplate part with a new terminal, which replaces the stock terminal coming with your water block. This way the whole enclosure requires only one inlet and one outlet, removing any unneeded additional tubing and reducing clutter. It is the ultimate aesthetic and performance solution that finds your GPU sandwiched between two water blocks allowing maximum cooling.The Vector Active Backplate directly cools the PCB hotspots that are found on the backside of the GPU core and the VRM (voltage regulation module). On the RX 3090, the VRAM located on the backside is cooled, while the RTX 3080 gets cooling for the PCB located around the front-mounted VRAM. Cooling liquid is channeled over all these critical areas.These newly developed active backplates feature a fin array with 6 wide channels allowing for very low flow restriction. This in turn allows overall lower temperatures, while the active backplate gets more than sufficient surface area for heat transfer.The base of this stealthy active backplate is CNC-machined out of nickel-plated electrolytic copper, while its top is CNC-machined out of durable Black POM acetal. The rest of the backplate is made of anodized aluminum and it does not come in contact with the liquid. These Vector Active Backplates also feature acetal terminals that match the top cover. The watertight sealing is ensured by high-quality EPDM O-rings.Enclosed:- EK-Quantum Vector RE RTX 3080/3090 Active Backplate - Acetal- Necessary mounting screws, nuts, and washers- 1x Nickel plated brass plug G1/4- EK-Loop Multi Allen Key (6mm, 8mm, 9mm)- Thermal padsTechnical Specification:- Dimensions: (LxHxW) - 223x124x15mmCompatibility:- Alienware RTX 3080 - Alienware RTX 3090 - EMTEK GeForce RTX 3080 10GB Black Edition OC - Gainward GeForce RTX 3080 Phoenix- Gainward GeForce RTX 3080 Phoenix GS - Gainward GeForce RTX 3090 Phoenix - Gainward GeForce RTX 3090 Phoenix GS - GALAX GeForce RTX 3080 SG (1-Click OC) (38NWM3MD99NN) - GALAX GeForce RTX 3090 SG (1-Click OC) (39NSM5MD1GNA) - HP Omen RTX 3080 - KFA2 GeForce RTX 3080 SG (1-Click OC) (38NWM3MD99NK) - KFA2 GeForce RTX 3080 SG 10GB (38NWM3MD99NK)- KFA2 GeForce RTX 3090 SG (1-Click OC) (39NSM5MD1GNK) - KUROUTOSHIKOU GeForce RTX 3090 24GB GALAKURO (GG-RTX3090-E24GB/TP) - Palit GeForce RTX 3080 GamingPro (NED3080019IA-132AA) - Palit GeForce RTX 3080 GamingPro OC (NED3080S19IA-132AA) - Palit GeForce RTX 3090 GamingPro (NED3090019SB-132BA) - Palit GeForce RTX 3090 GamingPro OC (NED3090S19SB-132BA) - PNY GeForce RTX 3080 10GB XLR8 Gaming EPIC-X RGB Triple Fan Edition (VCG308010TFXPPB) - PNY GeForce RTX 3090 24GB XLR8 Gaming EPIC-X RGB Triple Fan Edition (VCG309024TFXPPB) - PNY GeForce RTX 3090 24GB XLR8 Gaming REVEL EPIC-X RGB Triple Fan Edition (VCG309024TFXPPB) - PNY GeForce RTX 3090 OC XLR8 Gaming Epic-X RGB Triple Fan Edition, 24GB GDDR6X, HDMI, 3x DP (VCG309024TFXMPB)
