EK Fluid Works CAD Workstation: Tailor-Made for Computer-Aided Design

FAQ for EK Fluid Works CAD Workstations

• How does liquid cooling benefit my CAD workflow?

  Liquid cooling offers many benefits with little-to-no drawbacks. It is substantially more efficient than standard air cooling and provides drastically lower noise output, top-level stability, and reliability while keeping temperatures low under extreme loads. This is a significant advantage over standard air cooling because it is not uncommon for air-cooled GPUs to experience complete failure induced by the heat load.

  And best of all - it boosts performance – making your PC up to 25% faster! No matter the intensity or time requirement of your workload, you can count on the full power of the EK Fluid Works workstation to be at your disposal.

• What are the upgrade paths?

  You don’t have to go for all the “bells and whistles” right from the get-go. You can purchase a configuration upgrade at a later date. We provide pre-assembled, pre-filled, plug & play GPUs thanks to our industrial-grade dripless QDC. You can easily increase the computational and visualization power of your EK Fluid Works workstations as your workload expands.

• In the event of component failure, how would I service my workstation?

  In the unlikely event that your liquid-cooled GPU fails, it can be easily replaced with a pre-assembled and pre-filled GPU. You would simply disconnect the dripless QDC, remove the faulty GPU, insert the replacement GPU, and reconnect the tubing. It is straightforward and hassle-free servicing.

• In the event of component failure, how would I service my workstation?

  In the unlikely event that one of the GPUs fails, it can be easily replaced with a pre-assembled and pre-filled GPU. You would simply disconnect the dripless QDC, remove the faulty GPU, insert the replacement GPU, and reconnect the tubing. It is straightforward and hassle-free servicing.

• Is liquid cooling safe and reliable?

  All the components and materials used in constructing our EK Fluid Works cooling systems are of the highest quality.

  All tubing is made of automotive-grade EPDM, resistant to considerably higher temperatures and degradation levels than it could ever experience in a desktop computer environment.

  Premium gaskets and high-purity aluminum are used to manufacture the water blocks to ensure long, leak-free service life.

  Industry-proven, redundant Xylem D5 pumps are entrusted with pumping the coolant to all the vital components of the liquid cooling loop.

• Comprehensive Remote Testing

  We strive to achieve a seamless plug-and-play experience for our end users, with all potential compatibility issues and troubleshooting resolved at our facilities before shipping.

  As a satisfaction guarantee, we offer a unique opportunity for comprehensive remote testing of every sold system. This means running your own software and dataset samples through a secure remote connection for up to 24 hours before your system is packed for shipping.
