EK Offers Fluid Gaming A240R kit with Radeon RX Vega Support
The EK Fluid Gaming lineup is finally supporting AMD Radeon RX Vega based graphics cards. EK is releasing a new kit, the A240R and the EK-AC Radeon Vega aluminum based full cover water block!
The EK-AC Radeon Vega full cover water block brings a pure and minimalistic design for liquid cooling enthusiasts and the same can be said for the EK Fluid Gaming A240R kit.
The kit is equipped with an EK-Supremacy AX CPU water block, an evolution of the renowned high-end EKWB water block that brings excellent performance and an attractive appearance! It’s a universal water block that suits all modern CPU sockets on the market, both Intel and AMD.
The included EK-AluStream SE radiator offer high-class cooling performance for its thickness of 28mm. Dense aluminum fins combined with a slim profile provide a huge cooling surface, while the radiator remains highly compatible with most cases on the market. AluStream SE radiators are optimized for maximum heat dissipation across the entire operational range of the included high-static pressure EK-Vardar fans which deliver exceptional performance at both low and high RPM operation.
We must not forget to mention the enclosed SPC series PWM liquid cooling pump with an integrated reservoir. This combo offers premium hydraulic performance and full speed control for silent operation. Full performance on demand or whisper-quiet operation in idle mode. To complete the full custom loop, the kit comes with EK-ACF ALU fittings, EK-DuraClear transparent tubing, the latest EK-CryoFuel coolant, Power and PWM cables, a pump holder bracket and a detailed installation booklet. Since the installation process is the same as for the A240R kit, a step-by-step video installation tutorial is available on EK’s YouTube.
The star of the show is the EK-AC Radeon Vega full cover water block that fits all reference Radeon Vega Frontier Edition, Radeon RX Vega 64, Radeon RX Vega 56 design based graphics cards. Before deciding on this kit, we recommend that you refer to the EK Cooling Configurator for a precise compatibility match with your GPU.
As mentioned, with the launch of the EK Fluid Gaming A240R, the EK-AC Radeon Vega full cover water block will also become available for purchase in the Fluid Gaming parts page. If you want to find out more about aluminum based liquid cooling solutions, you can find much useful information in our blog post.

If you will go with this combo or this Fluid Gaming be sure you will be only using aluminium radiators, you don't want to mix metals like Copper and aluminium, you can mux copper and nickel but not aluminium
Hope this helps
Thanks, Jura

i'm very excited for this. and it's more compatible CPU wise than the otherwise excellent Alphacool product, plus it looks better in a way that screams performance...tho' i'll be (and more importantly HH) seeing about that later.
