This is a complete all-in-one (CPU and motherboard) liquid cooling solution for the ASRock X470 Taichi and ASRock X470 Taichi Ultimate motherboards that support the second generation of AMD® Ryzen™ and 7th Generation A-series/Athlon™ processors.

Designed and engineered in cooperation with ASRock®, this monoblock uses award-winning EK-Supremacy EVO cooling engine to ensure the best possible CPU cooling. This water block directly cools AMD® AM4 socket type CPU, as well as the power regulation (MOSFET) module. Liquid flows directly over all critical areas, providing the enthusiasts with a great solution for high and stable overclocks. Like with every EK monoblock, EK-FB ASRock X470 Taichi RGB  features high flow design and this monoblock can easily be used in the systems utilizing a weaker water pump as well.

This AM4 socket based monoblock also comes with a redesigned cold plate which ensures that the monoblock has better mechanical contact with the IHS of AMD® AM4 socket based processors, thus enabling better thermal transfer.

The base of the monoblock is made of nickel-plated electrolytic copper while the top is made of quality acrylic glass material. The nickel plated brass screw-in standoffs are pre-installed and allow for easy installation.

A standard 4-pin 12V RGB LED strip is installed in the monoblock that connects to the motherboard’s 4-pin LED header or it can be connected to any other standard 12V 4-pin LED controller. The LED strip cover can easily be removed for adjusting the cable orientation or replacing the ordinary LED strip with a Digital LED strip or any other custom solution as well! The enclosed Digital RGB LED strip is compatible only with the dedicated 3-pin digital LED motherboard header. ASRock® motherboards feature advanced LED lighting options and with the ASRock® Polychrome RGB, users can individually address color to each LED on the monoblocks integrated Digital LED strip.
