Montageplaat EK Water Blocks aluminium nikkel

The EK-Quantum Vector² Xtreme RTX 3080/90 ABP Side Cover - Nickel is a nickel-plated aluminium mounting plate that covers the gap between a GPU water block and the active backplate. Designed to be used only together with the corresponding water block and active backplate, it conceals the terminal side of the graphics card PCB so that no PCB components are visible.

Advantages

The nickel-plated aluminium construction provides corrosion resistance and a consistent aesthetic that matches compatible EK components. The plate offers a precise fit for the intended GPU models and completes the assembly between the water block and active backplate, improving the finished look and protecting the exposed PCB area.

Suitable for

• EK-Quantum Vector² Xtreme RTX 3080/90 water block and active backplate assemblies
• Custom liquid-cooled NVIDIA RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 GPU builds
• PC builders who want to hide the PCB terminal side for a cleaner appearance

Key specifications

• Material: Aluminium, nickel-plated
• Compatibility: EK-Quantum Vector² Xtreme RTX 3080/90 water block and active backplate
• Manufacturer brand: ek water blocks
• MPN / EAN: 3831109896167

How to use

Install this side cover only in conjunction with the matching EK water block and active backplate for the Vector² Xtreme RTX 3080/90. Position the plate over the gap between the water block and the active backplate so that it fully conceals the terminal side of the PCB, then secure it following the water block and backplate assembly instructions provided by EK Water Blocks.

Recommendations

Use the nickel-plated aluminium side cover only with the specified EK Vector² Xtreme RTX 3080/90 components. Avoid attempting to fit it to incompatible models; improper installation can prevent full coverage of the PCB or interfere with mounting. Handle the plate with care to avoid scratching the nickel finish during installation.
