EK Unveils EK-Quantum Velocity² Edge D-RGB - 1700 Black and Silver Special Editions
EK, the leader in premium PC water cooling, is proud to introduce the EK-Quantum Velocity² Edge D-RGB - 1700 Black and Silver Special Editions. These water blocks set new standards in design and aesthetics, showcasing EK's commitment to excellence.
The top cover of these Special Edition water blocks features a unique assembly of irregular tetrahedrons, transforming them into modern art pieces. This design creates a captivating interplay of light and shadow, adding a dynamic visual appeal. The water blocks are specifically designed for Intel's LGA 1700-based platform, compatible with 12th, 13th, and 14th generation Core CPUs. The cold plate is made of high-grade electrolytic copper for unparalleled heat transfer.
The EK-Quantum Velocity² Edge D-RGB - 1700 Special Editions are available in black and silver finishes, allowing users to choose a style that complements their PC build. The top cover is CNC-milled out of a 30 mm thick aluminum sheet, separated from the coolant with a layer of acrylic to prevent mixing of metals.
For AMD enthusiasts, EK will also be launching AM5 versions of these Special Editions in the near future, available in black and silver finishes.

This allows for silent operation without compromising performance.
EK-ExactMount System
The EK-ExactMount System is a patent-pending mounting system that ensures an easy and aesthetically pleasing installation. With only three components - a backplate, mounting screws, and the water block itself - it provides a clean and seamless front aesthetic without visible screws. The pre-tensioned springs concealed in the water block top make installation quick and easy while ensuring perfect mounting pressure.
EK-Matrix7 Compliant
The Velocity² 1700 Special Editions are EK-Matrix7 compliant, aligning with EK's philosophy of seamless integration and ease of use. The EK-Matrix7 standard utilizes a 7 mm increment system for product height and port distance, simplifying loop planning and tube bending.
