EK Water Blocks, a well known liquid cooling specialist from Slovenia, have now announced its newest EK-Predator AIO CPU cooler, a high-end complete all-in-one (AIO) liquid cooler for mainstream market.
Although we
have already seen a teaser of the new EK-Predator AIO CPU liquid cooler, EKWB has now officially unveiled all the details and officially announced it.
While custom high-end liquid coolers were usually reserved for enthusiast segment of the market, EK Water Blocks now aims to bring that same high-end solution to mainstream market as well, with the EK-Predator. To be available in 240mm and 360mm versions, the EK-Predator is based on EKWB's Supremacy MX CPU water block, CoolStream PE radiator in 240mm or 360mm version, two or three EK-Vardar high static fans and a DDC 6W pump.
Dimensions of the EK-Predator 240 with integrated pump and reservoir are set at 295x133x68mm while the bigger EK-Predator 360 measures at 415x133x68mm. Unlike the EK-Predator 240 which is your standard AIO CPU cooler, the EK-Predator 360 will have a unique integrated Quick Disconnects (QDC) feature, which are pretty much special connectors that allow the expansion of the system without the need to drain the unit. This will allow users to add a pre-filled QDC-enabled GPU water block the loop without any big issues or problems.
The EK-Predator 240 will be available as of September 23rd with a price set at US $199/€199 while the EK-Predator 360 will follow on October 19th with a price set at US $239/€239. Both units will first be available for Intel sockets while AMD version is planned for next year. EKWB has also promised plenty of custom add-ons for the EK-Predator 360.
