EK Introduces Maximus VI Impact Water Cooling Solution

EK Water Blocks has launched its first, total (CPU and motherboard) solution for ROG Maximus VI Impact water cooling, dubbed the EK-FB ASUS M6I. It uses the EK-Supremacy cooling tech on the CPU, while also extending over the Z87 PCH and power regulation (VRM / MOSFETs) vertical module to cool them. It is a very high flow water block that can be easily used with systems using weaker water pumps. "We're excited to introduce our first AIO water block," said Niko Tivadar, EK-FB ASUS M6I main designer and Product Manager of EKWB. "EK-FB ASUS M6I provides sleek design with only two in- and out- water ports which greatly improves the functionality of the unit. Uncompromised CPU cooling is ensured by the use of our award-winning EK-Supremacy CPU water block cooling engine. ASUS® Maximus VI Impact motherboard, paired with our cooling solution, represents the foundation for building the flagship performance small-form factor D.I.Y. gaming machine." The block is made of bare or nickel-plated electrolytic copper (depending on what you select to buy),  while the top is a choice between quality POM Acetal or acrylic glass. The clear variants feature two slots for easy installation of 3mm LED diodes (naturally we recommend going red). EK also encloses its EK-LGA 115x TRUE Backplate to ensure even contact with the CPU, as well as to prevent any motherboard warping.
