    EK Rampage III Extreme MoBo Block



    Are there going to be the usual Copper, Nickel, Acetal, Nickel+Acetal variations at launch? Eddy?

    The sample picture showing at the EK site seems to be a combination of Copper/Nickel/Acetal ?! Perhaps a prototype?

    UPDATE May 13, 2010:

    Nickel + Plexi render...


    Nickel + Acetal render...


    Looks awesome! can't wait until it gets to the US.

    UPDATE May 17, 2010:

    Nickel + Plexi


    Nickel + Acetal

    I wouldn't mind nickel+plexi look to go along with my Supreme HF and FC5870 finish. So will there be such option?

    We have decided to release only Nickel + Plexi and Nickel + Acetal.
    This is only a prototype!
    Top metal plate made of satined stainless steel and this is for functional purpose.
    Now you think about how the water flows through there

    Sweet Eddy, thanks for the reply! ETA still around May 15th for EU? What about the US?

    Also, any updates on the Supreme HF Cu rev.2 ETA (for the 1/2ID 3/4OD compressions)? Thanks!

    Hi!

    RE3 ETA still the same.
    As for the Supreme HF full copper, right now I can't say any date when they could be available.
    Honestly, we and sellers have enough stocks and we cannot come out with new top revision and leave all resellers with high stocks. I hope you understand.

    Eddy, if I may make a suggestion, release the other top as an optional part available separately. That way you don't leave everyone sitting on stock they can't sell and the top is at least available to people who need it. I think that would be a much better solution for everyone involved than not offering it at all. Of course, there will inevitably be complaints from people that they can't buy the block complete with the top but you will never be able to please everyone.
    If I'm a danger to myself just think what I could do to you.

    Oh god damnit Eddy! Some of us are still copper lovers! *grumbles*

    so hard to find nice copper and acetal blocks these days

    Although at first, I didn't like the prototype but I think it's growing on me... Can I have it and give it a loving working home?

    This will be my block of choice. To be honest I don't really need it, but full board blocks just look so good. Right now my R3E stays around 45c with the stock solution which is awesome. I just want the sexyness of a full board block.

    I love the look of the stock block and was thinking about just putting a block on the place where a fan goes. But damn, when people like EK come out with stuff like this (have to see what others come out with as well) what is an h20 nut to do?
