EK appears to be preparing an AMD Radeon VII water block

Thanks to a user on the AMD subreddit, who contacted EK to uncover the release date of their unannounced Radeon VII water block, we now know that EK plans to release a Radeon VII water block “in 4-5 weeks”, with the company’s support representative stating that they will release more information regarding the water block at a later date. 

AMD’s Radeon RX Vega series f graphics cards benefitted greatly from liquid cooling, utilising the increased thermal headroom to maintain higher boost clocks and deliver enhanced performance. Back in 2017, EK released a report which claimed that their RX Vega 64 offered a 9% performance boost and a 4% reduction in power draw by trading AMD’s reference blower for the company’s full-cover water block. Perhaps the Radeon VII would see similar benefits when liquid cooled.
