The base of the monoblock is made of nickel-plated electrolytic copper while the top is made of quality acrylic glass material. The nickel plated brass screw-in standoffs are pre-installed and allow for easy installation.

It uses a standard 4-pin 12B RGB LED Strip which is installed in the monoblock to connect to the motherboard's 4-pin LED header or any other 4-pin controller. EK also says that the LED strip cover can be easily removed for changing the cable orientation or replacing the strip with a Digital LED strip.
