EK Water Blocks EK-Quantum Scalar2 Strix/TUF DirectLink Terminal - acrylic

It connects the water block with the active backplate. Sleek magnetic covers can be used to conceal the terminal screws. They allow rotation of the branding when the GPU water block is inverted in the case or is being used on a vertical GPU mount. The magnetic covers are not part of the package and should be re-used from the original terminal that came with the ABP set.

The DirectLink flow solution is the first multiple-block solution to implement a conventional 4-port terminal layout, allowing serial and parallel connections from adjacent or opposing sides of the block. It was made possible by adding a machined brass insert in the terminal that diagonally links the water block directly to the active backplate inside the acetal terminal. These brass inserts are not part of the package and should be taken from the original terminal that came with your Strix/TUF RTX 4080 or 4090 ABP set.

DirectLink proves invaluable when flexibility is required for the right setup, as in the case of a distribution plate or vertical GPU mount.

This terminal is CNC-machined out of glass-like cast acrylic.
