And this shouldn’t be a surprise, given that Thermaltake markets more coolers than any other manufacturer in the world, including some very fancy custom loop solutions. If you go with an external radiator tower, sure, you can have a larger setup, but then you really never plan on moving your PC. Additionally, the AMD instructions refer to the use of four thumbscrews, when only two can be used (Intel uses four). To compare the airflow of the new fan against the original H60 fan, we used an anemometer (Extech AN100) with a custom adapter to adapt from 120mm fan to the smaller 80mm diameter of the anemometer sensor.

The copper heat transfer plate below the pump has not changed, although the screws have been changed to more standard Philips head screws.The CPU block also isn't as bulky as some previous generations of the H100 which means the tubing can exit out of the side instead of the top, which we think improves the aesthetic massively. This exciting new development stays true to the Hylas core competence of safely crossing oceans in comfort and style. It is definitely designed for people who don't care about all the fancy RGB and just want a cheap and reliable AIO that also performs well, and that is exactly what it delivers. The way to know what you’re actually getting is by looking at the model number, not the name – the model we’re reviewing here is CW-9060036-WW, and it was released on March 22, 2018 (for those keeping track!

Intel, the Intel Logo, Intel Inside, Intel Core, and Core Inside are trademarks of Intel Corporation in the U. The other great thing about the Fury Nitro is that it has a zero-fan mode, which was critical to our noise testing.Compatible with all current AM4, LGA 1151 and LGA 2066 socket CPUs and equipped with a CORSAIR 120mm SP Series PWM fan, users can adjust the fan speed between 600 RPM to 1, 700 RPM for precise control over noise and airflow. For best results place the solar charger 45 degrees towards the sunlight to maximise the charging rate. Additionally, the fan is designed to be highly efficient, providing reliable cooling performance even under heavy loads. First, as illustrated in the manual, the fan is mounted on the inside face of the radiator, which would put it in a “pull” orientation if used as in intake and massively limit airflow.

However, in our experience, when a fan is running at very low RPMs, the fan speed is very inconsistent. In terms of cooler settings, most reviews simply run coolers at maximum RPM, show the results, and on a separate page might provide noise data.The CPU temperature sat at 30 °C, which is fine, but do to pump noise, the sound level hovered around 30dB. My advice is to try the bolts into the rad' before placing it inside the casing just to ease the process. I've seen plenty of water cooling solutions over the years, but I have never seen anyone with an apparently 360x360mm radiator and nine fans (let alone a 420x420mm radiator with nine 140mm fans).
