Cubierta lateral EK Water Blocks EK-Quantum Vector2 RE RTX 3080/90 Metal Silver

EK-Quantum Vector² RE RTX 3080/90 ABP Side Cover - Silver is a metal plate that covers the gap between the water block and the active backplate on compatible NVIDIA RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 graphics cards. Machined from aluminum with a natural anodized silver finish, the side cover is intended for use together with the matching EK water block and active backplate. The silver finish is designed to complement EK's Satin Titanium components and conceals the terminal side of the PCB so that no part of the board is visible.

Advantages

The side cover provides a clean, uniform appearance along the card edge while protecting PCB terminals from dust and accidental contact. Being CNC-machined from aluminum with an anodized surface ensures dimensional accuracy, low weight and corrosion resistance. It is engineered for exact fit with the corresponding EK water block and active backplate, simplifying installation and improving overall aesthetics.

Suitable for

• NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 graphics cards with compatible EK water blocks and active backplates
• NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 graphics cards with compatible EK water blocks and active backplates
• Custom water-cooled PC builds aiming for a consistent metal finish and concealed PCB edge

Key specifications

• Material: Aluminum
• Finish: Natural anodized silver
• Compatibility: EK-Quantum Vector² RE RTX 3080/90 water block and active backplate
• Manufacturer part number (MPN/EAN): 3831109862001

How to use

Install this side cover only in conjunction with the corresponding EK-Quantum Vector² RE water block and active backplate following EK's installation instructions. Remove the graphics card from the system and attach the side cover to the exposed terminal side of the PCB after mounting the water block and backplate. Ensure all fasteners are tightened to the specified torque and verify there is no contact with other components before returning the card to service.

Recommendations

Use the side cover exclusively with the matching EK water block and active backplate for RTX 3080/3090 cards. Do not force fit or modify the cover; check compatibility and clearance in your chassis before installation.
