00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:13,920
welcome to my unboxing of the AMD FX 8

2
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:18,320
core processor Black Edition with liquid CPU cooling system however I should tell

3
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:23,640
you guys now that this is a sample of the liquid cooling system that does not

4
00:00:21,039 --> 00:00:27,199
have a CPU inside so there you go overclock and don't overheat liquid CPU

5
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:32,719
cooling system easy Bend tubes for maximum flexibility quiet high performance pulse width modulation I

6
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:36,719
think they mean pwm radiator fans brilliant customizable RGB LED okay

7
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:42,280
that's kind of cool custom fan speed control software as well as ah more

8
00:00:40,239 --> 00:00:45,239
about the CPU that is not in here because this box includes an AMD

9
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:51,000
processor that is not in here installation instructions limited warranty information and a liquid CPU

10
00:00:48,239 --> 00:00:57,920
cooling system designed for use in a desktop PC so let's have a look at what

11
00:00:54,320 --> 00:01:00,079
is just the liquid cooling system from

12
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:05,239
AMD so you can see right here who the o M for this particular liquid cooling

13
00:01:02,559 --> 00:01:12,400
system might happen to be acch shows you how to install it okay cool

14
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:15,119
beans next we have the liquid CPU

15
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:20,520
cooling chill Control software which you should not use you should download the

16
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:23,159
latest from someone's website whether it

17
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:27,920
happens to be uh AMD or acch okay it includes mounting hardware

18
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:33,320
for AMD systems there you go

19
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:38,640
so we got screws for the fans screws for the hold down plate as well as a little

20
00:01:35,439 --> 00:01:42,640
ring that goes here apparently or go

21
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:45,719
somewhere okay and then mounting

22
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:48,600
clips it is compatible with am2 am2 plus

23
00:01:45,719 --> 00:01:52,399
am3 and am3 plus two fans included they seem to be of some kind of reasonable

24
00:01:50,840 --> 00:02:01,880
quality cuz they don't have like a ton of flex to them these are everflow motor

25
00:01:55,799 --> 00:02:05,320
your life r121 1225 5su

26
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:07,719
fans and there are two so you can mount

27
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:10,959
them in push pull if you see fit or you can just put one of them on your CPU and

28
00:02:09,640 --> 00:02:16,920
like put the other one somewhere else they're reasonably nice looking you got your little AMD sticker going on there

29
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:19,239
that's green as well as nice short uh

30
00:02:16,920 --> 00:02:22,800
four pin pwm connectors that are using all black wires and then a black

31
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:28,000
connector so they are very aesthetically pleasing if nothing else all right as

32
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:30,640
you can see there is no CPU in the Box although yours would have a CPU in the

33
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:34,879
Box here we see the bottom cold plate as

34
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:38,480
they call it or CPU block as I think we should probably be calling it with

35
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:42,599
pre-applied thermal interface material it is a very high quality Tim that is

36
00:02:40,879 --> 00:02:46,400
installed on the bottom of these acch coolers I do know that for a fact

37
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:51,840
changing it out with something better actually will not really net you much in

38
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:54,599
terms of a performance gain here we have

39
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:58,599
uh the power for the pump itself as well as the pass through that will power the

40
00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:03,560
fan so this cable right here runs to power both of your pwm fans and it can

41
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:07,480
control the fan speeds on both of them at the same time you can see the only

42
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:11,239
wire that is not running to the second connector is the RPM monitor so the RPM

43
00:03:09,920 --> 00:03:15,959
monitor will only work on one of the fans as long as they are both plugged

44
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:20,560
into the radiator you would hopefully notice that the rad that one of the fans

45
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:24,239
isn't working long before uh both of them failed and then you know your CPU

46
00:03:22,879 --> 00:03:30,519
wasn't getting any cooling because as long as one of them is going you should be fine so this uses a thick style

47
00:03:27,599 --> 00:03:34,400
radiator much like the corser h70 or h80 which means that if you are running in

48
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:38,560
push pull it's ideal because there is a lot of resistance to the air being

49
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:42,519
pushed or pulled through the radiator if you don't have two fans and in order to

50
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:46,120
get the best possible performance out of the surface area you have available you

51
00:03:44,319 --> 00:03:49,920
want to make sure you're pushing lots of air flow through it now when they talk

52
00:03:47,879 --> 00:03:53,480
about super flexible tubes they are not kidding these are just like the N the

53
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:59,200
ones on the ntech 920 where you can bend them up like this

54
00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:04,760
and you can see look ma no Kinks so you will be able to get adequate liquid flow

55
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:06,840
to your CPU regardless of what kind of a

56
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:12,560
you know contortionist configuration you have to do in order to get the block

57
00:04:09,319 --> 00:04:14,920
positioned correctly over your over your

58
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,479
processor now the other thing that can be a bit of a challenge for these is you

59
00:04:16,239 --> 00:04:22,440
got to make sure you do have adequate room in your case most cases that accept

60
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:26,040
a 120 mm cooling fan at the back will work with this kind of a radiator you

61
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:29,400
can see there's a small tank at the top as well as a small tank at the bottom

62
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:36,960
but on the sides they're fairly low profile so it's exactly the width of

63
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,960
okay slightly more than the width of a

64
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:42,680
fan I think that pretty much covers it if you want to know how it performs go

65
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:48,120
find out how an h70 performs and it's going to be pretty much that but probably a little bit better cuz these

66
00:04:44,919 --> 00:04:50,120
are better fans and uh you got your

67
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:53,759
unlocked FX processor thing going on on the top here that's where the RGB LEDs

68
00:04:51,919 --> 00:04:57,720
are so you can actually change the color of the FX in there I guess I'd recommend

69
00:04:55,720 --> 00:05:00,919
red I mean you can make it blue if you want but I think we all know why that

70
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:04,120
would be wrong so don't forget to subscribe to lineus Tech tips for more
