After recent troubles, EK is certainly not going anywhere and it came to the Computex 2024 show in force, showing off several new products, including the whole new line of liquid cooling products, the EK Nexe. The brand-new product line is, according to EK, designed from scratch, and unlike standard custom loop products, the critical components of EK Nexe, water blocks and combo units, are injection molded, just like the rest of the AIO products. This should provide the best ratio between performance, design, and price, making the EK Nexe lineup both accessible and quite popular among both consumers and system integrators.
In order to make it as simple and accessible as possible, EK Nexe does not use standard threads and fittings, but rather push-in fittings that lock in place, creating an airtight seal and allowing tubes to rotate freely. The EK Nexe line also uses a modular approach, which means that the GPU water block will be using a universal cooling core or platform specific to certain GPUs and a heatsink that covers the entire PCB. The core will cover entire graphics card and cool both the GPU and the VRM while the heatsink, which is CNC-milled for every GPU model specifically, will handle other critical components on the graphics card PCB. Those two will be joined and offer a design similar to a water block with an acetal top.
