## Summary description

The EK Water Blocks Vector Strix is a high-performance water block made from nickel with a stylish black and white finish. Measuring 2923mm in width, 154mm in depth, and 16.5mm in height, it is designed for efficient cooling. This water block is ideal for gamers and PC builders looking to enhance their cooling systems.

## Long description

The EK Water Blocks Vector Strix Nickel Black White is a full-cover GPU water block engineered for ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3070 graphics cards based on NVIDIA Ampere architecture. Constructed with a nickel-plated electrolytic copper cold plate and a black POM acetal top, this second-generation Vector design extends the cold plate nearly the full length of the PCB and actively cools the GPU die, front-mounted VRAM, MOSFETs in the VRM, PWM controller and associated chokes. The block uses an Open Split-Flow cooling engine with optimized flow paths and a 28-microfin array featuring 0.6 mm microchannels to deliver efficient heat transfer with low hydraulic restriction.
Advantages
The Vector Strix water block offers a combination of broad thermal coverage and low flow resistance, enabling effective cooling even with moderate pump speeds. Precision CNC machining and nickel plating improve thermal contact and corrosion resistance while the acetal top provides mechanical durability. Integrated D-RGB lighting with six individually addressable LEDs supports common motherboard sync standards for visual integration. Pre-installed brass standoffs and EPDM O-rings ensure watertight, user-friendly installation.
Suitable for
ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3070 graphics cards (verify exact PCB revision using the EK Cooling Configurator)
Custom liquid-cooled gaming PCs and workstations seeking improved GPU thermal performance
Systems where low hydraulic restriction is required due to weaker or low-speed pumps
Builders who want integrated D-RGB lighting compatible with motherboard sync

External dimensions (width × depth × height): 2923 mm × 154 mm × 16.5 mm
How to use
Confirm compatibility with your specific ROG Strix RTX 3070 PCB revision using the EK Cooling Configurator before purchase. Power down and discharge the system, remove the original cooling solution and clean the GPU die and VRAM contact surfaces. Align the water block over the PCB and secure it using the supplied mounting hardware and pre-installed brass standoffs. Connect the 3-pin D-RGB cable to a compatible +5V addressable header on the motherboard, aligning the arrow on the connector with the +5V marking. Fill and leak-test the loop according to standard custom liquid-cooling procedures before normal operation.
Usage recommendations
Use high-quality corrosion-inhibited coolant and follow a minimum 24-hour leak test with the system powered off. Check pump speed and flow to ensure adequate circulation; the Open Split-Flow design tolerates lower flow but consistent circulation improves cooling performance. Consider adding EK recommended retention backplate for additional passive cooling and mechanical support.
