Â
Â
Pre-filled and QDC-enabled GPU water blocks will be available on November 5th 2015. This will be a on demand service where customers will be able to select a QDC option when purchasing the GPU water block. EK will fill the water block with coolant and make the unit ready to be used with Quick Disconnects. Graphics card with such water block will be immediately ready to be connected with the Predator 360 QDC. Quick Disconnect package (without pre-filled GPU water block) will also be available for purchase separately!
Â
Technical highlights:
Hovercore is a new, revolutionary design of radiator de-coupling that effectively prevents transfer of pump induced vibrations from the unit to the computer chassis itself, thus resulting in vibration-free and silent operation.
Supremacy MX CPU water block, top performer in Enthusiast segment, is specifically designed for Intel CPUs and offers great hydraulic and thermal performance. Carefully machined copper base is made from purest copper available and is further polished to absolute mirror finish. This alone greatly improves the cooling performance of the Predator.
CoolStream PE 360mm radiator, has a full copper core superior to aluminium alternatives in terms of heat dissipation. In conjunction with EK-Vardar fans the result is increased performance across an entire fan operational range, thus delivering results both at low- and high airflow operation. Dimensions of the main radiator unit on Predator 360, with integrated pump and reservoir are: 415 x 133 x 68 mm. This allows mounting of the unit in most modern mid- and full-tower computer cases.
Â
Vardar fans â three on Predator 360 â are high-static pressure fans developed in-house specifically for liquid cooling systems. With low noise profile and PWM technology built in, the system always controls the RPM and keeps the fans silent while maintaining excellent cooling performance.
DDC pump is a powerful 6W liquid cooling pump providing 2-3x higher flow rate compared to other AIOs on the market. Itâs also PWM controlled, allowing for automatic pump speed regulation depending on your CPU temperature. Full performance on demand or whisper quiet operation in idle mode!
Integrated Fan splitter hub reduces cable clutter and keeps the unit aesthetically clean. Predator pump and fans plug into the unit itself with only one PWM cable going into CPU Fan socket, while a single SATA molex cable powers the complete unit.
EK has provided a lot of Installation Guides to help beginners set up their first liquid cooling loop.
Â
Â
EK-XLC Predator 360 is compatible with Intel LGA-115x and LGA-2011(-3) CPU sockets. AMD versions are planned for release in 2016.
Made in Slovenia, Europe, the unit is readily available through EK Webshop and Partner Reseller Network. In the table below you can find MSR price with VAT included.
