EKWB EK-RAM Monarch modules

With the various versions of the EK-RAM Monarch, EK Water Blocks has a cooler series in its range that can be used to provide excellent water cooling for Corsair's Dominator series of storage bars.

For this purpose, however, it is necessary to unscrew the attachment on the RAM modules to give way to the water coolers. Then the heat of the Corsair DIMMs is transferred directly to the Water Blocks via their rear edge.

In addition, the original heatsinks surrounding the Dominator bars transfer heat from the PCB to the top-mounted EK cooler. As good as this system works with the Corsair memory, it was unfortunate in the past that other manufacturers' DIMMs could not be cooled by EK WB.

With this additional kit from EK Water Blocks, this is finally possible. A total of four black plates made of anodized aluminum are included in the delivery, two of which each include a RAM bar. They have threads at the top so that an EK RAM Monarch cooler can be screwed on.

In total, two DIMMs per kit can be equipped, whereby all common DDR2/3 modules are supported, which are equipped with memory chips on both sides (double-sided). For latches in single-sided design, thicker thermal pads (1.5 mm) would have to be used than those included in the scope of delivery.

Note: To use the adapter boards, any original heat sinks that may be present must be removed from the RAM latch to be cooled, which will result in the loss of the manufacturer's warranty.
