Know before you buy
Yes, the EK-Quantum Magnitude is compatible with Intel LGA-2066 and 2011 sockets, as well as the AMD AM4 socket. Please ensure your specific motherboard socket matches these requirements before installation.
The block uses a standard 3-pin 5V digital LED connector. It is compatible with most major motherboard RGB synchronization software, allowing you to control the 30 integrated LEDs directly through your system.
The POM acetal top is chosen for its durability and structural integrity rather than thermal conductivity. The actual cooling performance is driven by the nickel-plated copper cold plate and the high-density fin array, which remain highly efficient regardless of the top material.
To prevent corrosion and maintain performance, use a high-quality coolant designed for custom loops. Avoid mixing metals in your loop—such as aluminum and copper—to ensure the nickel plating remains in good condition over time.
The Magnitude is engineered specifically for low flow restriction. Its internal design is optimized to allow coolant to pass through easily, making it an excellent choice even for loops with multiple components or smaller pumps.
The block features standard G1/4 threads, which is the industry standard for custom water cooling. You can use any G1/4 threaded fitting that matches your tubing size.
