EK-Mana G2 PC-O11D EVO DDC D-RGB Distribution Plate

EK-Mana G2 PC-O11D EVO DDC D-RGB Distribution Plate is a custom water cooling reservoir, routing and pump solution. This “distro plate” is the successor to the very successful G1 version and is specifically designed to provide an advanced water cooling solution for the incredibly popular O11D chassis series by LIAN LI, namely:

• Lian Li O11D
• Lian Li O11D XL
• Lian Li O11D EVO
• Lian Li O11D EVO XL
• Lian Li O11D EVO RGB

It is an all-in-one solution that includes a pump and a reservoir while acting as a coolant routing system. To avoid any confusion that this distro plate is only for novice-level users, seasoned PC builders will also appreciate the engineering that went into the EK-Mana G2. This product is EK-Matrix7 compatible. The Matrix7 standard ensures the placement of the inlets and outlets is aligned with other Matrix7-compatible products. This minimizes the number of bends needed to create a perfect loop, or completely removes the tube bending process from the equation if using pre-bent 90° tubes.

The EK-Mana G2 is exceptionally versatile and can support a wide variety of hardware and radiator options, which is why this distro plate is expected to find its home in numerous other non-Lian Li cases too. For a standard setup with a horizontally mounted GPU with an ATX motherboard, the list of compatibility for the EK-Quantum Surface radiator is as follows:

• Lian Li O11D: maximum 360mm P series at the top and 360mm S series at the bottom
• Lian Li O11D XL: maximum 360mm P series at the top and 360mm X series at the bottom
• Lian Li O11D EVO: maximum 360mm P series at the top and 360mm X series at the bottom
• Lian Li O11D EVO XL: maximum 420mm P series at the top and 420mm X series at the bottom
• Lian Li O11D EVO RGB: maximum 360mm P series at the top and 360mm X series at the bottom

The distro plate comes with a powerful, market-proven, PWM-controlled 4.2 DDC pump made in Europe! The pump can draw a maximum of 18W and is powered via a black flat cable with a SATA connection. The goal was to create a product with enough power to give outstanding performance with multiple blocks and radiators. Users can buy an aftermarket heatsink from the EK-Quantum Convection series for added cooling of the DDC pump to increase its lifespan. 

For those who do not wish to use a DDC pump, this distribution plate can also mount D5 pumps using an EK-Loop D5 Pump Mounting Kit. The Lian Li O11D, O11D EVO, and O11D XL PC cases have enough depth to allow fitment of the D5 pump.

It is mounted on the side of the case, revealing the beautiful aesthetics through the side window. The built-in addressable LED strip connects to the motherboard 5V header and is compatible with MSI’s Mystic Light Sync, ASRock’s Polychrome Sync, ASUS’ Aura Sync, and GIGABYTE’s RGB FUSION software for a coordinated lighting effect. It also works with Lian Li’s L-Connect RGB control software.
