EK to Support Intel’s New 4677 Socket Xeon CPUs With EK-Pro Water Blocks
EK®, the leading liquid cooling gear manufacturer, is announcing the availability of two high-performance liquid cooling solutions for the Intel® “Sapphire Rapids” processor family. These single-socket LGA 4677 water blocks are specifically designed to cool the 4th Gen Intel Xeon® Scalable CPUs that are optimized for advanced workstation professionals and go up to 60 cores.
EK is quite experienced with demanding needs of heavily threaded, I/O intensive workloads across the industries like Architecture, Engineering and Construction, Media and Entertainment, and Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. This enabled them to create the EK-Pro CPU WB 4677, a water block designed to provide sufficient thermal headroom to maximize the performance benefits of Intel Turbo Boost Technology while maintaining healthy processor operating temperatures. EK aimed to create a liquid cooling solution that enables customers to operate at peak performance unrestricted by any thermals.
