## Summary description

EKWB Vector Strix is a nickel water block designed for liquid-cooling loops. Constructed from nickel-plated material and available in black or white finishes, it measures 2923×154×16.5 mm. Intended to be integrated into PC liquid-cooling systems, the block provides direct cooling for compatible components and fits into custom loop configurations.

## Long description

EKWB Vector Strix is a nickel-plated GPU water block developed for custom liquid-cooling loops and specifically compatible with ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3070 graphics cards based on NVIDIA Ampere architecture. The block measures 2923×154×16.5 mm and is available in black or white finishes. Its CNC-machined nickel-plated copper cold plate and acetal top provide direct cooling for the GPU core, front-side VRAM, MOSFETs in the VRM, PWM controller and all chokes. The Vector Strix uses an Open Split-Flow cooling engine and a fin array of 28 microfins with 0.6 mm microchannels to balance cooling performance with low hydraulic restriction.
Advantages
The Open Split-Flow design ensures low flow resistance, allowing effective cooling even with lower-speed pumps while maintaining even coolant distribution across the cold plate. A long cold plate extends nearly the full PCB length to address additional components beyond the GPU die. CNC-machined nickel-plated electrolytic copper base ensures efficient heat transfer, and the acetal top with matching terminals provides durable construction and watertight sealing with EPDM O-rings. Integrated D-RGB lighting with six individually addressable LEDs supports standard 3-pin +5V headers for synchronized illumination.
Suitable for
ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3070 graphics cards (refer to EK Cooling Configurator for precise compatibility)
Custom PC liquid-cooling loops targeting GPU thermal management
Systems prioritizing low hydraulic restriction and pump efficiency
Builds requiring integrated addressable D-RGB lighting for synchronization

How to use
Integrate the EKWB Vector Strix water block into a compatible custom liquid-cooling loop following the motherboard and GPU manufacturer guidelines. Before installation, consult the EK Cooling Configurator to confirm precise compatibility with your ROG Strix RTX 3070 PCB revision. Prepare the GPU by removing the original cooler according to the card manufacturer instructions, clean the GPU die and VRAM contact surfaces, and apply thermal interface material where required. Mount the water block using the supplied brass standoffs and appropriate mounting hardware, ensuring EPDM O-rings are seated correctly to prevent leaks. Connect the D-RGB 3-pin cable to a compatible +5V addressable header for lighting control and route coolant tubing to and from the block within your loop, observing flow direction recommendations of your system.
Usage recommendations
Use compatible coolant and maintain regular loop checks for leaks and pump performance. For improved board aesthetics and additional passive cooling, consider pairing the water block with a dedicated retention backplate designed for ROG Strix RTX 3070. When installing, follow anti-static precautions, torque specifications from EKWB and the GPU manufacturer, and verify D-RGB connector alignment with the +5V marking.
