The EK-Quantum Reflection² V3000 Plus distro plate features numerous ports and offers multiple ways of properly connecting it to other loop components like radiators, CPU, and GPU blocks. This article explains exactly which fittings (like extenders, adapters, angled adapters, etc.) can and should be used to properly connect the radiators and water blocks to this distro plate.

Here’s the table of content for easier navigation:

- Choosing the fittings according to the radiator(s) used in the loop 

- Choosing the fittings according to the CPU block used in the loop

- Choosing the fittings according to the GPU Block used in the loop

 

Choosing the fittings according to the radiator(s) used in the loop

The Lian Li V3000 PLUS case provides enough room to fit several different-sized radiators simultaneously, so we decided to explain which fittings are to be used with different radiator setups.

Suggested optimal radiator configuration

Top: P480 Push/Pull

Front: S480 Pull

Bottom: P480 Push/Pull

 2 EK-Quantum Torque Extender Static MF 7
2 EK-Quantum Torque Extender Static MF 14
1 EK-Quantum Torque Extender Static MF 28
4 EK-Quantum Torque Rotary 90°
10 EK-Quantum Torque HDC

2 EK-Quantum Torque Rotary 90°
3 EK-Quantum Torque Double Rotary Offset 28
4 EK-Quantum Torque HDC

P480 / P420

2 EK-Quantum Torque Rotary 90°
2 EK-Quantum Torque Extender Static MF 14

4 EK-Quantum Torque HDC

X480 / X420

2 EK-Quantum Torque Rotary 90°
1 EK-Quantum Torque Extender Static MF 28

To complete a loop at least two radiators must be installed! The Top radiator is mandatory. Below you will find the list of fittings that are needed for the optional front or bottom radiator.

GPU and CPU water blocks connectivity 

Given the wide variety of motherboards and graphics cards available on the market, this distro plate has multiple ports for CPU and GPU connections, so you must choose the most suitable fittings, extenders, and adapters for your project. We also offer Offset Fittings to help you achieve straight-line tubing routes from your CPU/GPU block to the DP ports. 

Note: All Reflection², Vector², and Velocity² products, as well as all the Quantum Torque fittings, adapters, extenders, and Surface radiators, are made according to the EK-Matrix7 standard, enabling more user-friendly port connectivity. It also allows us to provide you with detailed info on how to easily connect the CPU and GPU blocks (Velocity² and Vector²) with the DP ports. 

 

Choosing the fittings according to the CPU used in the loop

For products including EK-Quantum Velocity² Intel, AMD, and Momentum Monoblocks, use the following items:  

Small Offset (0-3mm):

2 EK-Quantum Torque Rotary Offset 3
2 EK-Quantum Torque Extender Static MF 7
2 EK-Quantum Torque Rotary 90°
4 EK-Quantum Torque HDC

Big Offset (3-7):

2 EK-Quantum Torque Rotary Offset 7
2 EK-Quantum Torque Extender Static MF 14
2 EK-Quantum Torque Rotary 90°
4 EK-Quantum Torque HDC

No Offset:  

2 EK-Quantum Torque Extender Static MF 28
2 EK-Quantum Torque Rotary 90°
4 EK-Quantum Torque HDC

 

Choosing the fittings according to the GPU Block used in the loop

Make note of the width of the GPU block from the product page (for the vertical mount):

    How do you route the outlets for the front and side radiator? The distro plate has two inlet ports but only one outlet port.
