FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q
How many water blocks can you add to the loop?
A: The EK-Classic Kit D-RGB liquid cooling unit can be upgraded
with several additional parts. However, to keep the performance
at the optimal level, it is recommended not to upgrade the Kit with
more than:
- one (1) GPU water block (EK-Classic Kit D-RGB S/P240)
- two (2) GPU water blocks (EK-Classic Kit D-RGB S/P360)
Q
What flow rates are to be expected with an EK-Classic Kit?
A: This Kit typically operates at about 440L/h. Installing a typical
GPU water block usually drops flow rates from 440L/h to
about 360L/h. Adding two water blocks would result in flow
rates of about 300L/h in the same scenario.
For best performance, it is recommended to run the pump at a
100% duty cycle to maintain the highest flow rates (and thus
thermal performance) when running more than one additional
water block.
Q
Can the Push-Pull Fan configuration be used with EK-
Classic Kit D-RGB?
A: Yes, this Kit can accommodate additional fans on the bottom
side and therefore work in the push-pull regime.
However, the required mounting screws are not
enclosed and must be purchased separately.
In order to prevent damage to the unit, please
use the UNC 6-32 30mm screws with standard
120x120x25mm fans!
The required set of UNC 6-32 x 30mm screws can be purchased
through EK Webshop and EK Partner Reseller Network.
Q
Is it possible to ‘daisy-chain’ the enclosed PWM splitter?
A: Yes. The enclosed PWM splitter allows for daisy-chaining of
additional PWM splitter cables, such as EK-Cable Y-Splitter
2-Fan PWM (10cm) [EAN: 3831109867860], as long as the
total power draw does not exceed 12W (1A on +12VDC) - the
limit of KK 254 4-pin fan header on the motherboard.
