EK Water Blocks, o anche più brevemente EKWB, ha annunciato il water block EK-FC7990, una soluzione, dotata anche di una piastra backplate in alluminio,
progettata per ottenere ottimi risultanti nell'ambito del raffreddamento a liquido di una video card dual-gpu di classe Radeon HD 7990.
In accordo al produttore, il water block è ottimizzato per le Radeon HD 7990 di PowerColor, VTX3D, Club3D, ma, naturalmente, esso può essere impiegato in abbinamento a
qualsiasi HD 7990. Il nuovo EK-FC7990 è in grado di raffreddare tutti i componenti cardine della scheda video, ovvero la GPU, i chip di RAM G-DDR5 (a quelli posizionati nella parte posteriore è applicata naturalmente la piastra backplate) sono e il VRM (Voltage Regulation Module), favorendo quindi la stabilizzazione di tali componenti in regime di overclocking.
EK Water Blocks sottolinea anche che il nuovo EK-FC7990 implementa un design particolarmente efficiente, che permette il conseguimento di ottime performance anche in abbinamento a sistemi di raffreddamento dotati di pompe con una portata limitata.
EK Water Blocks dichiara per il suo EK-FC7990 un Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) pari a €169.95.

undisputedly hottest gaming graphics card in the world - Radeon HD 7990 - bundled with aluminum backplate.
EK-FC7990 is a high performance full-cover water block engineered specifically for PowerColor/VTX3D/Club3D Radeon HD 7990 series graphics cards. This water block
directly cools both GPUs, RAM as well as both VRMs (voltage regulation module) as water flows directly over these critical areas thus allowing the graphics card and
it's VRM to remain stable under high overclocks. EK-FC7990 water block also features a high flow design therefore it can be easily used in liquid cooling systems using
weaker water pumps.
EK also encloses the EK-FC7990 Backplate made of high precision CNC milled aluminium with black anodized finish. This backplate directly cools the memory IC on the
backside of the circuit board as well as serves as an aesthetic add-on. Two-slot I/O bracket which replaces the original three-slot, in order to make installation of
mutliple graphics cards easier, is also enclosed.
