cools. looks neat. its water! cant consider of any except for size, but it doesnt block something in my setup. the initial one i bought one of the holes was stripped.i sent them a letter explaining the circumstance. they shipped me out everything BUT the peice i needed. so i replied, and they sent me a 2nd kit once more. along with some swag :)it all works, and that is EXCEPTIONAL client service!!!

THIS IS MY SECOND 1 I BROUGHT, IT COOLS DOWN 10 TO 15 C COOLER THAN STOCK COOLER ,Straightforward TO INSTALL NONE SO FAR I'LL Purchase Once again, I OWN THE Initial FOR Pretty much A YEAR NOW

It works ,for about six months by no means had any problems with it. You can't direct the air flow from the front of the case to the back you have only two alternatives either it blows the hot air on the power provide either on the video cards .I payed 260 on the PSU and 300 on the VGA so now I have to choose which one I will fry ( : It's big It didn't fit my M2N32 SLI premium mobo , I hat to cut the heat spreader from the motherboard ( this was the third cooler I purchased and couldn't install it simply because of that heat pipe). I have an AMD 64x2 6400+ and this CPU runs hot. I tried an Rosewill RCX-Z2-EX 92mm 2 Ball PWM and a stock cooler and it was nevertheless hot ࿠C even though gaming ) so I was hoping that with this cooler temperatures will go down a small but I still get an idle of 49C and 64C whilst gaming (and I'm not overcloking.....) I'm just sorry I spent all these income on these coolers rather of purchasing a genuine liquid cooler from the start out. I just placed another order for a Thermaltake liquid cooler , hopefully that will do the trick.

It appears to maintain the processor inside about 5-8c of the ambient temperature inside the case. I am utilizing this on an AMD Phenom II X4 965 BE 鲽W). Even though the stock fan provided with this CPU seems good, I wanted a little added protection against frying the CPU - and this appears like it will do the job adequately. Installation was a little tricky (see thoughts beneath). Also, as other people have mentioned, it's a small on the noisy side (fan appears to be operating too quick for the load). The noise element, on the other hand, can be mitigated by the type of case you have. If you have a very ventilated case, you may hear it more. Also, given that the fan sits among two radiator stacks, there's going to be some hissing/whistling just mainly because of the nature of the radiators (they in fact appear like miniature versions of a vehicle radiator). I had to get rid of the current fan bracket from my AM3 mobo. FYI: do this Prior to installing the mobo into the case (there is normally a support bracket on the back-side of the mobo that will probably fall off)! Also, I had to use slightly longer screws (along with the tension springs provided) to mount the unit to the bracket without having applying unreasonable pressure onto the CPU itself. Also, the supplied one-piece bracket also extends up-and-over the 4th DIMM slot (on my mobo)...so another FYI: install memory initially prior to installing this bracket!

Similar price tag for the most important selection of CPU heatsinks and fans that are out there. I thought it was simple to install. Superior performance for its price. Nice appear. Quiet style.Fits in a full tower. Its all one piece no pipes hoses or pumps. Kinda large but what can you anticipate from an all in one. The void sticker so you can't change liquid to mabey a better sort. Applys to fan also. The instructions are a bit... plain making it for some I believe tough to follow. If your seeking for a low cost option to your costly CPU fan and heatsink issues then this is the way to go. Took about twelve degrees celsius off my top heat. If you want you can change the fan to a far better design and the coolent also.

My friend recently purchased one of these for his new rig, and he's shown me the averages on temps ahead of and after he utilized this thing. Compared to when he had a Thermalright Ultra-90 mounted on his Q6600, the temp differences are slightly distinct, about 6-15 degrees Celsius less when he employed this. I believe it's worth the value, certainly. He has to spend quite small attention to it, and refilling the liquid isn't at all a hassle, surely a clever small unit. This thing is also compatible with tons of various socket varieties, which is undoubtedly a very good factor due to the fact that means a broader range of clients who can use it. None. Overall verdict: Very properly-created and efficient unit that's definitely worth getting.

Runs quite cool and VERRRY stable. I have an AMD Phenom x4 9950 (quad core) 2.6 Ghz OC to 3. on the stock heat sink and was fine and running stable but would rise in temp to about 80c under stress testing and long gamming in about 10-15 mins. now soon after applying some arctic silver 5 thermal compound and this AIO liquid cooling method i can run my laptop or computer longer it takes 8 - ten hours of strain testing or gaming for the computer system to get above 70c'scomes with thermal compound but i purchased some excellent stuff (arctic silver 5)also comes with two molex to 4 pin fan connectors (each haveing two molex connectors on them) so it wont rob your mobo connectors if your employing them and if you dont have a mobo with four pin (three) your covered This is a Massive heatsink but entirely worth it (outlasts and out perfoms air heatsinks of equal size.)Somewhat loud (but there is not only a fan but a pump so no wonder) also part of the reason my comp ran so cool is b/c its in a GIANT case with two 250mm fans on it and two 90mm chassis fans (for a total of 6 if you count the heatsink fan and the PSU fan)operating an ASRock mobo 8GB RAM AMD 3. quad core 1TB HDD

Great notion, and a fairly low-cost way to get water cooling. Fairly uncomplicated installation (comes with a complete bunch of diverse brackets). I have had it about 6-7 months, and it nonetheless works excellent! Large! For my Computer create, i got a fairly large case, so this wasn't an concern, but in most mid-size towers, size may well be an concern. This factor sticks out about 5.25 inches more than my mobo, so make sure it will fit your case prior to you purchase! Also, this thing is fairly loud. I in no way had "real" water cooling in this rig, so i don't seriously ahve anything to compare it too. However, i am operating a two.66 core duo quad OC'ed to three.9ghz and it runs fine and at fairly typical temperatures.

Comment:
It absolutely keeps my processor cool. I was searching for a fairly cost helpful solution to my quad core heating up a bit too much when I would overclock it. This keeps it about 5-6 degrees cooler, which I'll absolutely take. It's huge, lol. The thing just barely fits in my mid-tower ATX case. While it does do it's job in terms of cooling, I was hoping for more I guess. I don't know if that's about average with these all-in-one water cooling offers or not. For the cost, it's difficult to beat it. If you truly want a cool CPU though, I'd look around a small more initially

Comment:
Nice concept... Not only was it affordable feeling it took a lot of perform to get it to fit on my gigabyte mobo, now I am fine with taking my comp apart to install a new cpu cooler as I did anticipate that but I am talking about having to take off the chip set coolers and stuff so I can even have a chance at installing this factor. As soon as I got the screws in I started putting the mobo back in, connecting the psu ex.. and I heard a snap!@! The inexpensive plastic thing they use to connect it to the mobo broke..!@!@! That was a excellent waste of ุ I bought this understanding that watercooling can have far more stable temps when OCing considering that i got my q6600 up to 3.6ghz with an aftermarket air cooler but still hitting 65-70c on full load so I was hoping this would bring them down a small. I shouldn't have expected this thing to cool my cpu as effectively as a 赨 loop but I do believe I have to expect it to at least function without snapping in half. q6600 3.6ghz 34c idle / 65 full load4gb 1066 five-five-5-15 ramtwo 500gb 7200rpm hdd's 4870 512mb ocedgigabyte moboapevia 600w

Wonderful Product!!! Not even close to accurate water cooling, but when you compare โ to easily 񘈨.........properly you get the point!! For it's price IT IS Amazing!!!!! None actually....All downsides are(or at least really should be) understood. In other words this is NOT a "once in a life-time close to-no cost" water cooling method; it IS a water cooling program that you don't will need a 贄k salary to afford buying. !!!AND THAT IS SAYING A LOT!!! You could notice that when your CPU is NOT under load, this cooler is barely any far better than a reg. fan & heatsink. Exactly where does it truly shine?? Well lets just say that an extra five-10c or so when below load certainly outclasses the normal 15-20c in the similar situation. LOL BIIIIIIIIG Difference!!!!Also, keep in thoughts that the ambient space temperature *WILL* (and i repeat *WILL*) make a distinction. This isn't necessarily a bad factor. JUST Maintain IT IN Mind

Comment:
Certainly works far better than your average fan by rather a few degrees. I was expecting a slight bit more, but it was worth the obtain.

Cheap all-in-one cpu liquid cooling solution. 29.99 right after rebate its practically no cost. Was making use of an arctic cooling pro 7 that kept me idle at about 49-50 c and about 60 c full load. Ive literally taken 10 c off across the board. Sitting about 40 c idle and no much more than 50c under full load, thats 100% across four cores. Relies on air temp in case, make positive you have excellent ventilation. Upgrade to full tower from mid helps. If you have an intel extreme board this thing WILL rub your northbridge HS, doesnt do any damage that I could see just not a perfect fit. I got it on anyway. Have to get rid of motherboard to mount support bracket , so get ready for full pc disect and rebuild. All thos temp posts were with the fans running at maximum rpm, i run them at 100% all the time. I assume this points rocks at duel cores and below, but I can honestly say it holds its own with a high end quad. If you want to lower your temps 10-15 c, this really should do that over most Best HS FAN coolers.

It's a mid level cooler. It does an OK job at cooling my cpu. Not a real liquid cooling system. Fan is on 100% it appears. I replaced my dead faithful thermaltake V1 Max Efficiency CPU cooler with this all in one cooler. This all-in-one cooler could not touch my old faithul V1 cooler. If you are going to go liquid cooling I advocate going all out and get a accurate liquid cooling method. This 1 just doesn't cut it. The Xigmatek cooler had my cpu idling at 44-49 deg Cel and 58-68 deg Cel on load on all for cores of my Q6600ʃ.0Ghz. My old V1 would cut those numbers by 10 deg lowers. What I regret is not spending บ-15 much more dollars to get a new V1 cooler

Excellent reasonably priced smaller cooler than keeps me suitable exactly where I want to be. Cools my Q9300 which ran 49C idle(no overclocking) with an Articcooler 7 to 35 C(overclocked to three.2ghz). and cut my load temps so I in no way go above 50C. All I require quiet I can finally turn my fans down on my case. Comes with converters to power the cooler in the box and pretty straight forward. You have to have to have some reasoning with the factor prior to you install it, the directions are umm fairly lame. but they will function. the fan inside the cooler is at a low RPM I am going to toss that 1 out and get a far better higher RPM fans for superior cooling. Choose up some greater liquid if you can it voids the warrenty but it will assist. If you are searching for single digit temps attempt elsewhere, if you are looking to lose 10ㅇC on your temps get this! You could lose a lot more heat if you modify it some with far better fans and liquid. I function with computers daily but I don't care to MAx out every little thing on mine, get this if you don't care to break the bank.

Price! All in one unit! Uncomplicated installation (granted you don't mind pulling your whole motherboard off to do so). Avg drop of 5-7 degrees in Fahrenheit, which for the cost is rather respectable. Appears to be of decent develop excellent, a plus when it comes to anything water cooled within a PC. Considerably nosier than anything else its size, and speaking of size, it's a little on the bulky side (but then once again expected from all in 1 water cooling unit). Several here have given it a poor rating, but lets face it folks, what else can you get (at this cost) that will perform significantly greater? It is what it is, and it does exactly what it states. Installed in an Antec 3 Hundred mid tower case on an MSI P43 Neo3 motherboard (with an Intel 򞢸 processor) with no issues. Design and fan placement in the Antec Three Hundred makes it an ideal case for use with the AIO all in 1 cooling technique.

Extremely Good starter Liquid cooler. The style could be better I.E. fans to aid with the push pull but two 80mm fans one pushing by way of radiator into the middle of the radiator fan then out to the pulling exhaust fan does a dandy job. With my old heatsink/fan combo I was only able to OC my Phenom II x2 560 up to 3.8Ghz correct right after I put this in and began it up I quickly went suitable into my Bios and OC'd my Processor to 4.3Ghz which booted up to log in screen Blue screened then restarted so I backed it down to 4.2Ghz stable and has been running stable ever since and smooth as a butter knife through melted butter. I will be slowly overclocking to attain greater clocks with this as I know I can easily reach 1Ghz overclock and greater as my 560 is default @ 3.3Ghz and I so far am only .1Ghz off from that. All in all really nice. Could of put the 80mm fans on instead of leaving that up to us consumers other than that no quarrels. Excellent starting point for people moving into Liquid Cooling as this is a Wonderful aftermarket Heatsink/fan.

Simple install. With an AMD board you don't have to eliminate the MOBO. All in one unit. It keeps my Phenom II x four 955 BE. Over clocked at 4. ghzat 148F. Running Prime95 and SpeedFan 4.40. Under normal use it runs under 120F. It's big, it does cover the two memory slots close to the processor. They are nonetheless usable if you don't have heat sinks on your RAM. Very best to use it on a full size MOBO. Throw away the thermal grease that comes with it, use a very good grease and put it on quite thin. Also use a quite nicely ventilated case. It requirements a lot of fresh air. I'm utilizing an Antec 900 Case with fans on medium.

I have 2 asus motherboards the asus M2n-e and the M2N32-SLI Deluxe. This did not fit on the M2N32-SLI Deluxe the brass hardware got in the way. But it works on the asus M2n-e. It is cooling a FX-62 125 watt hot mother. It idles among 38°-40° C and at 100 percent it runs 48°-56° C. It is nicely built and I discovered no sharp edges. The price made me wonder if it was worth it. But I tried it to see. It benches fantastic. I wish much more people today would post the motherboards models they make these coolers fit on. These units can be big but I take into account this a medium size next to some I have seen. The directions are not quite superior. But when I figured out that both power plugs will need to be plugged in I got the numbers I liked on my benchmarks. I wish additional people would post the motherboards models they make these coolers fit on.

keeps my amd 7850 running at 54C on a full load and overclocked to three.17GHz regardless of horrible airflow in the case. looks cool with lightsuncomplicated installation (read the directions and look at the pictures) Massive!!! but fits in my mid towerkind of noisy if you don't like noise from your laptop or computer as far as i can tell, as long as you point the arrow at the leading of the cooler that indicates where the hot air blows out in the correct direction (to the back of your case exactly where the fans blow air out of the case) and you have fans blowing cool air from the front of the case into the cooler, you ought to get pretty good outcomes with this cooler. i know, it says "liquid cooling" but airflow is nonetheless crucial

Comment:
While it doesn't lower the temp, keeps my CPU closer to idle temps when it has high load. I can overclock my CPU by 1.2 gigahertz and idle temps only enhance by 1C and load temps only boost by 3C. Following that, it increases, but is far better than any air heatsink I have applied. Like any other performance PC, you will need correct intake and exhaust fans. It does not matter how awesome you are. You need to have fans unless you have genuine liquid cooling.All the kids who attempt to put this on a microATX board and then complain that it interferes with their RAM and cards. I cried laughing at the guy who got too excited and broke his board.

I got this block about four days ago. I installed it right away. It is massive but I am working with a full ATX case, so size wont be a difficulty, and it fits perfectly on my Asus M3N72-D. It does maintain my AMD 965 Phemon II X4 at a cool 36-39 C degrees cooler than the stock at 45-47 C, and under load it wont go over 50C ever. Due to the fact the stock fan for the radiator does not bring significantly joy to me, am going to set a side a 120 MM fan for extra air support. My rigged fans on the side panel make additional notable noice than teh block itself. And is not as massive as other non water cooling heatsinks. The thermal gel that came with it appear to be ceramic so I got compound 5 by Antec with I trust a lot more than that watery blend. Employing the cooler on a El Diablo case, when my 270 MM side panel fan broke, I removed it and rigged three 120MM fans for extra air. I can only hear the side fans I rigged rather than the cooler, and they are not even loud and they are 3, my stock cooler created a lot a lot more noise.

Comment:
Substantially greater than stock cpu fan/heatsink. I gained about 5-10 deg celsius under peak operating strain. Unlike other's I did NOT have to take out my motherboard. Outstanding Purchase. The factor is Huge. Just barley fit above my memory, make sure you have enough room for it. I was surprised at the level of excellent for this cost.
