EKWB Supremacy Elite Series CPU Water Blocks Start Shipping
EK-Supremacy Elite, the premium bundle containing the best CPU water block on the market and the best thermal interface on the market - the EK-TIM Indigo Xtreme - is now finally shipping. Please note that due to high demand this product may be shown as out of stock at the time of purchase. These water blocks are therefore manufactured on daily basis to ensure adequate supply and daily re-stock.
EK-Supremacy Elite is the premium bundle containing the best CPU water block on the market - the EK-Supremacy - Full Nickel - and the best thermal interface on the market - the EK-TIM Indigo Xtreme. EK-Supremacy is a universal CPU water block that fits all modern CPU sockets with a universal mounting mechanism that offers error-preventing, tool-less installation. The result is a perfect installation which results in perfect performance every time. EK-Supremacy is truly the best product for performance seeking enthusiasts.EK-Supremacy is a successor of the legendary EK-Supreme HF water block launched in 2010. It's main improvements are:
EK-Supremacy is also the first CPU water block on the market which has been optimized for every modern CPU platform independently with the use of different type of jet plates to ensure the best contact with the CPU integrated heat spreader (IHS). These jet plates of different shape and thickness are enclosed with the product.
EK-TIM Indigo Xtreme is an Engineered Thermal Interface (ETI) that fits neatly between a CPU lid and water block (or heat sink) to keep CPUs cooler. Unlike greases, metallic thermal interface pads or liquid metal alloys, Indigo Xtreme is a self-contained and sealed structure, deploying a Phase Change Metallic Alloy (PCMA) which reflows and fills surface asperities on the CPU lid and heat sink.
The Supremacy Elite Series consist of models specific to socket types:

It is shiny though! :)
Looking at the pics, all I can see is :-( in the second one.
No problems with the circles here
BTW, what way you got that block mounted? got a pic?
Nevermind it's off-topic, but a post in the mypcatm would be nice! ;)
I needs me a new block..got rands, pump, but no block for current sockets. The only thing I do nto like about htis block is that indigo extreme being sized for each socket, but I'm pretty sure the block is universal?
Did you get an AMD mount with your earlier version?
Aside from them being unaesthetic (IMO) all these circles increase tooling time and tool wear, things which eventually lead to higher end $$$ for the consumer :( If they did something for performance OK but....
Funny, when they released the "Best" thing on the market it can be improved upon later. Shouldn't the best reign true without revisions?
Good job EK, you deserve the pat on the back.
