EK has updated its Velocity series of CPU water blocks with a modular, customizable option. The Quantum Velocity³ water blocks come in three styles: white, black Acetal, and clear Plexi.

The latest generation of EK-Quantum Velocity CPU water blocks have been announced, and they offer a fully customizable configuration, thanks to the modular design. As a successor to the Velocity² series, the Quantum Velocity3 water blocks are said to deliver up to a 2-degree Celsius improvement in temperatures, which may not seem that significant but when it comes to high-performance computing, every degree counts.

There are three variants of the EK-Quantum Velocity³ water blocks including a White, an Acetal, and a Plexi version. All three have a modular construction that lets the user rotate the internal component and adjust the heat spreader alignment, as well as the port positions to best fit their individual custom water-cooling loop setup. These water blocks come with new mounting brackets that can be clipped on and off for easier installation. All three come with a Nickel-plated copper cold plate and a white Acetal, black Acetal, or crystal-clear Plexi top. 

The EK-Quantum Velocity³ CPU water blocks are just 25mm in height so there shouldn’t be any clearance issues even in small form factor builds. 

The three water blocks are priced the same at $111.9 and are available for purchase via EK’s official website for now.
