NVIDIA RTX 6000 ADA Partners with EK Fluid Works, Expanding Portfolio

EK, the leading provider of PC Liquid Cooling solutions, is expanding its hardware support in the EK Fluid Works systems with the addition of the latest nVidia RTX 6000 ADA professional GPU. This new offering from NVIDIA is highly regarded as the ultimate workstation graphics card, boasting impressive specs including over 18,000 CUDA cores and 48 GB of GDDR6 ECC RAM. With these powerful features, the RTX 6000 ADA GPU is perfectly suited for EK’s workstations and servers, enabling next-generation CAD, real-time rendering, HPC, and AI workloads.

To effectively handle the thermal dissipation of the RTX 6000 ADA GPU, EK has developed the EK-Pro GPU WB RTX 6000 ADA water block. This water block follows the same design language as the rest of EK’s data center portfolio, utilizing durable and high purity materials, an open split-flow cooling engine, CNC-machined microchannels with minimal hydraulic flow resistance, and EPDM rubber seals. By implementing this water block, EK has managed to shrink the dual-slot GPU to just a single slot, allowing for high-density applications on standard E-ATX and SSI EEB motherboards. This innovation, combined with low hydraulic flow resistance, has enabled EK to incorporate up to 7 RTX 6000 ADA GPUs in their high-compute-density rackmount servers and high-performance workstations.

The EK Fluid Works systems that feature the RTX 6000 ADA GPUs include the X7000, W7000-RM, X7000-RM (supporting up to 7 GPUs), X5000 (supporting up to 5 GPUs), S5000 (supporting up to 4 GPUs), and S3000 (supporting up to 2 GPUs). These systems offer incredible compute density and are designed to meet the demanding needs of professionals in various industries.

One of the standout features of the EK-Pro GPU WB RTX 6000 ADA water block is its excellent thermal performance. Under extended, high-intensity loads, this water block significantly reduces the GPU core and VRAM operating temperatures. EK’s lab has observed a remarkable 25°C drop in component temperature compared to air cooling at a 25°C ambient temperature. This exceptional cooling performance, combined with the water block’s durable construction and leak-free guarantee, ensures a long service life with maximum GPU output around the clock.

Supporting the new GPUs is the EK Fluid Works liquid cooling ecosystem, which consists of top-of-the-line EK components. The system includes multiple radiators, manifolds, high-quality EPDM tubing, and quick disconnect couplings (QDCs), ensuring optimal performance, low noise output, and easy serviceability. Liquid cooling is an essential aspect of these systems, providing superior cooling capabilities and maintaining optimal performance for demanding workloads.

The NVIDIA RTX 6000 ADA GPU can be found in various EK Fluid Works systems, including the Studio Series, Compute Series, and Rackmount Series. These systems offer a range of options to cater to different applications and workflows.

For those interested in exploring the EK Fluid Works systems or seeking guidance on selecting the right solution for their specific needs, EK provides a configurator tool and a team of liquid cooling experts who are ready to assist.

EK Fluid Works Systems are covered by a comprehensive 3-year Parts and Labor Warranty. During this period, EK also offers servicing kits for regular maintenance of the liquid cooling systems and replaces any failed components with prefilled assemblies (such as GPU and water block with tubing and QDCs) to ensure smooth operation with minimal downtime.

The EK Fluid Works systems featuring the new NVIDIA RTX 6000 ADA GPUs are currently available for pre-order. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to enhance your workstation or server with these technologies from EK.

Liquid Cooling: Liquid cooling is a technology used to cool down computer components, such as processors, graphics cards, and other components that generate a lot of heat. It works by circulating a liquid coolant, such as water or a special coolant, through a series of pipes and radiators. The liquid absorbs the heat from the components and then dissipates it into the air. This technology is becoming increasingly popular in the computer industry due to its ability to provide more efficient cooling than traditional air cooling methods. Liquid cooling can also be used to overclock components, allowing them to run at higher speeds than their rated speeds. This technology is becoming increasingly popular in the gaming industry, as it allows gamers to get the most out of their hardware.
