EKWB released two new reservoir pump-tops for the D5 family of pumps. TBoth are based on the EK-XRES 140 Revo D5 which is part of may of EKWB’s preconfigured-loop kits. The new standalone EK-XRES 140 Revo D5 comes in transparent plexi or RGB.
The EK-XRES 140 Revo D5 Plexi is constructed from clear acrylic – giving the builder a fully transparent unit. A 60mm-diameter tubular reservoir with a pre-installed anti-cyclone plate featuring the EKWB logo sits atop the pump intake section. The plate can be swapped for an included tube or anti-cyclone insert. The transparent reservoir cap platehas a fill port and a screw-in plug. EKWB said the REVO D5’s pump intake section increases the hydraulic performance of a D5 pump by up to 15%.
The EK-XRES 140 Revo D5 RGB has RGB LEDs installed at the base of the reservoir that illuminate the tube. The RGB LEDs are controlled from a four-pin header, and they’re compatible with the motherboard lighting controlers from Asus, Gigabyte, MSI, and Asrock. The Revo D5 RGB has an opaque acrylic pump, which makes the reservoir tube appear shorter than it is, and reservoir cap plate.
The EK-XRES 140 Revo D5 Plexi and RGB are now available on EKWB’s online store for $97 and $100, respectively. Do note that neither come with the cylindrical mounting bracket which they’re pictured with. So you will need get yourself a EKWB’s D5 pump mount and D5 pump to have complete that section of your water cooling system.
