EKWB EK-XLC Predator 280 @ techPowerUp

Published: | Posted By:

All in One cooling with quick disconnect fittings and what appears to be DIY quality components.  Seems like a good way to leverage gear you already sell.

The Predator 280 from EKWB aims to eat the competition alive. Offering top-tier performance, low noise levels, and easy expansion thanks to its QDC fittings, it offers users near custom watercooling performance without the headaches of doing it all yourself.

This is a dual 140 AIO cooler using the EK "square" style radiators.  From the photos I can't tell where the pump is located however, given the DIY style watetblock I am guessing it is attached to the radiator.  Quick disconnect fittings appear to be included to rival what Asetek has been doing for EVGA and should help average users expand their loops.  Or, mess them up completely. 

I mean, com'on look at who actually buys AIO coolers!  Now give them a chance to "accidently" drain their loops or hook an empty waterblock and wonder why they can't fill the loop?  I think it is a great product however, for the money, time and effort you might as well go with an off the shelf AIO or man/girl up and go DIY.
