As always we start with the packaging and bundle, everything is packaged, cushioned and bundled safely in the box. We'll show an overview of the bundled kit, the preparation and installation of the entire loop including a chilled GeForce GTX 1080.

As you can see from packaging, if you have a GeForce GTX 1070, 1080, 1080 Ti or Titan X(p). You are good to go with this kit. Mind you that the blocks are compatible with the reference (Founder Editions) cards.

Once unboxed you'll spot the liquid cooling unit consisting of the radiator, fans, tubing, pump/cooling block. Everything is ready to be installed, opposed to being an LCS unit, you do need to perform manual labor though and assemble the kit. But you know what, you are visiting Guru3D.com, so we'll show you that all over the next few pages.

You'll spot a back-plate that supports Intel LGA 115x and 2011 processors which can be used in combination with this cooler. Please note, before ordering read the compatibility listing for all sockets. For Intel Socket LGA-1150/1151/1155/1156 and 2011V3 you are totally good to go. The kit as is, is AMD AM4 processor/APU compatible with the included mounting brackets. That means you can use it on your sweet Ryzen build as well.

Here we have the radiator unit - incredibly light and only 3cm thick - it is obviously all aluminum as well - here we mount the 120mm VARDAR fans as we'll show you and obviously apply fittings (ALU) and tubing.

Here you can see the GPU cooling block. EK is including a back-plate for the graphics card as well. Basically you will receive a motherboard back-plate, some thermal grease TIM, mount screws, padding and here again ALU fittings as you cannot combine other metal materials in the closed loop.

This is the EK-AX Supremacy liquid cooling block, again super light weight again due to the usage of its aluminum design, with you guess it ... ALU fittings.
