EK, the renowned premium liquid cooling solutions manufacturer, introduces a brand-new high-performance CPU water block explicitly made for Intel LGA 1700 socket-based CPUs. This CPU block features a high-flow cooling engine and a dense microfin design that allows ample cooling even for the overclocked Intel Core i9-13900K processor.

This is a dedicated enterprise-grade water block developed for Intel Core consumer processors based on the LGA 1700 socket. It features two standard G1/4" threaded ports on the top and is built with performance, reliability, serviceability, and no compromises in mind. This liquid cooling solution is intended for desktop PCs, workstations, and taller server racks. The water block's top is CNC-machined from durable black POM Acetal, while the hold-down bracket is made of laser-cut stainless steel.



Cooling Engine
This CPU water block uses a variant of the EK-Quantum Velocity² cooling engine. This cooling engine's specific mounting pressure and cold plate geometry combination is tailored for the IHS and die layout of Intel LGA 1700 socket processors. Low hydraulic flow restriction enables it to be used in setups with weaker water pumps or lower pump speeds for extra-silent operation while achieving top performance.

The cold plate is made with precision to cover the IHS effectively and put pressure on the die area. The acetal top channels the coolant toward the jet plate, which increases the turbulence of the liquid and funnels it into the middle of the cold plate microfin stack, where it splits to both sides and goes back out. This way, the middle of the cold plate, positioned directly over the CPU die, gets the most cooling and flow.

The EK-Pro CPU WB 1700 water block has a pre-assembled error-preventing mounting mechanism installed directly onto its metal mounting bracket. Four spring-loaded screws ensure optimal hold-down pressure, resulting in perfect installation and optimal performance without any guesswork.

CPU Socket Compatibility:
  • Intel LGA 1700 socket
Availability and Pricing
The EK-Pro CPU WB 1700 water blocks are made in Slovenia, Europe, and are available for pre-order on the EK Webshop. This product is expected to ship out in late July 2023. The table below shows the manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP), VAT included.

MSRP: 167.90€, including VAT.

I guess the "pro" in the model name automatically adds $75 to the price
