New EK-Supreme HF (High Flow) CPU Block

[zeroibis]

Silver is fine. On that note a nickle plated version would be nice it would look so cool. Also I can not wait to see this thing! I am really going to need to water cool another computer so I can upgrade my HT

[bentleya]

I think the mounting plate should be Available in original (sliver) and Black (as it looks great with delrin tops). As all of the 6+ Supreme i have brought i have always had the retention brackets powder coated black.

kind of disappointing that aquatuning was the company that listed this product first.... but hey forgive and forget the company that tried to steal copyrights/trademarks

[Erklat]

- tops will be for a start only Acrylic and Acetal little later also Copper version

How is it related to EK Supreme when it comes to performance increments?

In the next few days or so, I'm ordering gold plated Supreme from Sidewinder. Is this worth waiting? And can Supreme HF be expected in gold plated limited edition?

I'm magpie, I like shiny little things. Especially when they look like Bumblebee

Mounting plates in red to go with classified and a blue to go with asus/gigabyte boards?

[zanzabar]

we need a copper mount to go with the copper top, a blue chrome would also be nice

and other than the mount whats the difference from this and the LT, isnt the LT the same just with no mid plate and if this is a blank midplate

[Metric]

An acrylic top with nickel plated base and black mounting would look really nice

Eddy: Just curious, from a design point, any particular reason the EK logo and waterblock name are oriented in opposite directions from each other?

[Onoff312]

If this beats the swiftech XT i just bought i am going to be really annoyed lol.

[Anemic]

Looks very nice, Im waiting for a review =)

[zeropluszero]

Very very interested.

[aspms*]

ignore those few bling lovers leave color scheme as it was with original supreme- silver, and maybe black one in addition to acrylic/nickel plated version or with Cu top

actually I'm more interested in Eddys compression fittings

No special reason.

Hi!
I am here.
To answer most of your questions (do not take it personally if I forget any)
- Internals little later also the designs of the jet plates versions, but you can imagine how it looks like as the concept is based on EK-Supreme.
- tops will be for a start only Acrylic and Acetal little later also Copper version
- we are thinking of different color of mounting plates, which ones would you prefer to see?

Availability ~10 days.

imo you should either make the colors by most popular boards like for example:

RED: Classified's
BLUE: Asus WS's or P55's


though should be people interested in white + acetal top for their projects, as for me black + acetal even gold + acetal should look good too, maybe you should make a thread with a poll with the color's you have in mind or have in your page before buying any of this block have a part where you can choose your color of preference

[FireDragon]

matching some of the most popular AMD Intel overclock boards would b sick, as it ALWAYS looks pro when u pcb color matches and when ur cooling setup matches, other then that probably basic colors, Red, Black, Blue, (Silver,chrome,nickle) those all pretty much the same

If you could do a white acetal version, that would be nice.

How is it related to EK Supreme when it comes to performance increments?

Forgive me for quoting myself, but it seems my question has been overseen.

Eddy, can you tell us something about this, like some sneak preview?

Since I don't have s1156 backplate, which i need, and it would cost me 20$ shipped at least, I am definitely ordering a new block since I might be able to sell my old EK Supreme acetal and have a new block for another 10-15$, so I definitely decided to go for it.

Now, as I mentioned, I thought I had made my mind with EK supreme gold plated since it has copper top included, too, along with backplate and universal mounting. I was wondering does the copper top increase performance or not? Performance pcs say this block has been factory tweaked, now can't tell whether it is marketing or not, so I'd rather ask. On the other hand, I have only nickel plated fittings, and that would ruin some of the bling appeal, but those EK's are great and I don't intend to change them, thanks

But then news about new block in a few days emerged, and now I'm confused. Is the new block with acetal better than Supreme one in full copper + gold plating (I know it does not affect temps)?
Really don't know, I like both of them. All those great EK products force me to spend some money

Oh, I think gold plating was a great idea since it does not react like copper does and has no impact on performance. Am I right? When block was bought base had mirror finish, and now it is, well, dirty

Thanks. Sorry 4 longer post.

How is price compared to old ek supreme / supreme lt? Might swap my LT for this

[Kurz]

Heh... I have a Heatkiller 3.0 CU and I am starting to regret it.
Especially with the Universal Bracket.

[JoeBar]

And why is this? HK is a top notch block not worth regretting...

[aspms*]

HK blocks come with mounting only for single platform and any additional platform mountings + backplate cost ~20$

[Kurz]

And why is this? HK is a top notch block not worth regretting...

Buyers remorse mostly.
Plus I like the designs with Uni-Brackets and less hassle mounting solutions.
(I have to use a ruler to make sure I have proper Pressure.)

I would like to see some photos of these while we wait for reviews please.

[Santzia]

I´d like to see a plain black mounting plate.
I bought the Supreme LC lastweek to go with the rest of my build. (everything in black). If you fix a black mounting plate I´m ordering it straight away. Only bought the LC because of the colour..
When will they be available? don´t really want to order more stuff from aquatuning. Before you guys start jumping on me, I didn´t read about aquatuning untill after I had ordered from them.

Read about what? Fill me in, please?

Dear EK partner,

Due to extreme level of EK-Supreme HF (High Flow) construction, we ran into manufacturing problems.
Because of this problems we expect 1-2 weeks delay of product availability.

We will inform you as soon as we will have specific date of the availability.

The old EK-Supreme is EOL and will not be available any more, so please do not order them any more.


Thank you for your understanding.

Kind regards, EK Team

I would say they wont be here till after Xmas now to be honest.
