EK Water Blocks Offers EK-Annihilator Pro Series CPU Blocks with Side and Top Fittings
EK is releasing revised server grade EK-Annihilator PRO water blocks that are specifically developed for LGA 3647 (Socket P) Intel processors. The two variants of the water blocks cover Square and Narrow ILM socket mountings by choice.
The core of the new CPU water block was further refined to manage the growing heat dissipation of new processors and to further upgrade connectivity options for server rack requirements. The new server/workstation-grade CPU block is 1U chassis type compatible for use with server racks.
With Intel releasing the new generation of Xeon W mainstream workstation processors for socket LGA3647 motherboards, came the need for a water block that is even further optimized for performance. The goal in the engineering of the new EK-Annihilator PRO water block was to provide an efficient cooling solution for the Intel Xeon W family of processors. Top priority was also to make the new CPU block server ready with multiple connectivity options even for the slimmest 1U racks. The EK-Annihilator PRO water block features a total of 9 ports, which allow for versatile connectivity options. Three ports located on the top are standard G1/4" threaded and are intended for workstations and taller server racks, while the 6 side ports, for low profile usage, are G1/8" threaded.This enterprise cooling solution is built for performance, reliability, serviceability and no compromises in mind. The EK-Annihilator PRO water block meets these demands with top thermal performance, and unparalleled connectivity making it the perfect choice for liquid cooling high-density computing systems.
EK-Annihilator PRO water block features a precisely machined copper base ('cold plate') which is made from purest copper available on the market and is treated with nickel electroplating. The top is made from CNC machined from thick and sturdy black POM Acetal and the CPU square ILM and narrow ILM hold-down brackets are made of laser cut stainless steel.
Availability and pricing
The EK-Annihilator PRO water blocks are made in Slovenia, Europe and available for purchase through EK Webshop and Partner Reseller Network. In the table below you can see the manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP) with VAT included.
- EK-Annihilator PRO Narrow ILM: 139,90€
- EK-Annihilator PRO Square ILM: 139,90€

Nice. Things surely are picking up for this socket.
Going to be nice to see what results people get from this and the hardware to go with it.
I've been patiently waiting for a system that screams future POWAH for years to come. And it is either zen3 or intels 3000 socket for this guy. Going to depend on a lot, but AMD might get that money if their CPU's can clock well with many cores available.
My system has cooling for days with four 580 rads and two 360 rads. Thousands of watts can not compete with this and i can not wait to throw down on some new hardware to push it to its limits.
Only problem I'm facing is accepting the hardware prices at the garbage offering point as per true capabilities over yesteryears hardware. PCI-e lanes is a big deal for me and this 44 lanes native garbage is sad to see this day. Almost jumped on AMD's bandwagon just for that premise alone. Still rocking the 44 native lanes on intels setup is kind of bothering me.
