EK-Quantum Vector2 FTW3 RTX 3080/90 ABP Set D-RGB - Nickel
EK Water Blocks EK-Quantum Vector2 FTW3 RTX 3080/90 ABP Set D-RGB - Nickel + Acetal – Set consisting of a GPU water block and an active backplate
EK Water Blocks EK-Quantum Vector2 FTW3 RTX 3080/90 ABP Set D-RGB - Nickel + Acetal is a complete cooling set: it contains the full-cover water block for the front of the graphics card, plus an active, water-cooled backplate for the rear. GPU, memory, voltage regulation module and the back of the PCB are all cooled within a single loop.
The cold plate is CNC-machined from nickel-plated electrolytic copper, while the top is made of black acetal. The dimensions are 328,5x155x41 mm. Lighting is provided by 38 addressable D-RGB LEDs, connected via a 50 cm cable. A matching backplate for the rear of the graphics card is already included.
Key Features
- EK-Matrix7 standard: Port positions and dimensions follow the EK-Matrix7 grid, so tubing can be routed straight and in alignment.
- Open Split-Flow cooling engine: The flow is split across the fin structure. This keeps flow restriction low, so weaker or slow-running pumps are sufficient as well.
- 10 mm thick copper cold plate: The solid copper base absorbs load peaks and spreads the heat evenly across the cooling surface.
- Direct Link terminal with four ports: The four-port layout allows serial and parallel connections from adjacent or opposing sides.
- Addressable D-RGB lighting: Connects to a 3-pin 5V D-RGB header and works with the common motherboard sync technologies.
- Cooling of front and back: Water block and active backplate work together in one loop.
- Nickel + Acetal version: Water block and backplate share the same finish.

Important notes
- Do not run together with aluminium components in the same loop – mixing different metals causes corrosion.
- Use coolants containing corrosion, scale and biological inhibitors to avoid damaging the nickel-plated surfaces.
- The block is not compatible with NVLink and NVIDIA SLI.
- The factory backplate of the graphics card cannot be reused.
- Given the variety on the market, EK guarantees fit only for fittings from its own range.
