EK-Quantum Convection M.2 NVMe- Silver 3831109894613 The EK-Quantum Convection M.2 NVMe is a passive aluminum heatsink for M.2 NVMe solid state drives. Although it’s not a water cooling component, it is a much-needed aesthetic and cooling solution for many PC owners. It’s no secret that M.2 NVMe SSDs can easily overheat and be subdued to thermal throttling, thus losing performance. However, this latest heatsink will completely prevent thermal throttling in cases with sufficient airflow or otherwise significantly prolong the time before thermal throttling of the SSD occurs. It is simple to install, low profile, easily reusable, and aesthetically non-intrusive. The heatsink uses a clever design where flipping the backplate will realign the mounting holes on the backplate to another set of screw holes on the heatsink. This will move the backplate away from the main body of the heatsink, allowing for more space and installation on double-sided SSDs. The heatsink is CNC-machined out of high-grade aluminum and has a finely-textured anodized satin silver finish. The backplate is also made of aluminum with a black anodized finish. Its unique Quantum-like design makes this heatsink the perfect addition to your build. The simple, understated look makes it sleek and non-intrusive, while the compact design makes it highly compatible and does not interfere with other components.
