EK announced EK-XLC Predator AIO price reductions

 

EK announced EK-XLC Predator AIO price reductions, decreasing the price of their AIO water cooling units by as much as 43% for their Predator 240 variant.  

This will reduce the price of their XLC Predator 240 by €76, the price of their XLC Predator 240 quick disconnect by €68 and the price of their XLC Predator 360mm quick disconnect model by around €62.  

 

 

 

These price reductions make EK's XLC series of AIO liquid cooler much more attractive, especially given the fact that these coolers can be expanded or  transformed into whole system liquid cooling setups. 

You can see out original review for the EK XLC Predator AIO here.

Wow, that is a huge price reduction. It makes sense as their AIO's don't wipe the floor of the much cheaper competition. They weren't reliable on launch and struggled to fit in a lot of cases that normally supported 240 radiators. The only benefit was the use of proper water cooling hardware such as PWM DDC pump that was much quieter than the crap that Cooler Master use and, to a lesser extent, the Asetek-branded stuff.Quote

Awesome news... now is it to make them competitive or is there a new version out soon?

Still love the Predator concept but it was hard to justify at the original price compared to a custom loop.Quote

I have wanted so much to see a proper expandable system that can add a full cover waterblock without maintenance, but the Predator 360 with its convoluted tubing runs just looks so bad. Only a few people have managed to train the tubes (there is a 'TWSS' joke in their somewhere) to sit in a position that looks like anything other than a bowel of black bean spaghetti. The QDC's are quite cool looking, industrial-like, and the matte black tubing is subtle and out of the way, but the length of the tubes just kills it for me.Quote
