welcome to my unboxing of the AMD FX 8
core processor Black Edition with liquid CPU cooling system however I should tell
you guys now that this is a sample of the liquid cooling system that does not
have a CPU inside so there you go overclock and don't overheat liquid CPU
cooling system easy Bend tubes for maximum flexibility quiet high performance pulse width modulation I
think they mean pwm radiator fans brilliant customizable RGB LED okay
that's kind of cool custom fan speed control software as well as ah more
about the CPU that is not in here because this box includes an AMD
processor that is not in here installation instructions limited warranty information and a liquid CPU
cooling system designed for use in a desktop PC so let's have a look at what
is just the liquid cooling system from
AMD so you can see right here who the o M for this particular liquid cooling
system might happen to be acch shows you how to install it okay cool
beans next we have the liquid CPU
cooling chill Control software which you should not use you should download the
latest from someone's website whether it
happens to be uh AMD or acch okay it includes mounting hardware
for AMD systems there you go
so we got screws for the fans screws for the hold down plate as well as a little
ring that goes here apparently or go
somewhere okay and then mounting
clips it is compatible with am2 am2 plus
am3 and am3 plus two fans included they seem to be of some kind of reasonable
quality cuz they don't have like a ton of flex to them these are everflow motor
your life r121 1225 5su
fans and there are two so you can mount
them in push pull if you see fit or you can just put one of them on your CPU and
like put the other one somewhere else they're reasonably nice looking you got your little AMD sticker going on there
that's green as well as nice short uh
four pin pwm connectors that are using all black wires and then a black
connector so they are very aesthetically pleasing if nothing else all right as
you can see there is no CPU in the Box although yours would have a CPU in the
Box here we see the bottom cold plate as
they call it or CPU block as I think we should probably be calling it with
pre-applied thermal interface material it is a very high quality Tim that is
installed on the bottom of these acch coolers I do know that for a fact
changing it out with something better actually will not really net you much in
terms of a performance gain here we have
uh the power for the pump itself as well as the pass through that will power the
fan so this cable right here runs to power both of your pwm fans and it can
control the fan speeds on both of them at the same time you can see the only
wire that is not running to the second connector is the RPM monitor so the RPM
monitor will only work on one of the fans as long as they are both plugged
into the radiator you would hopefully notice that the rad that one of the fans
isn't working long before uh both of them failed and then you know your CPU
wasn't getting any cooling because as long as one of them is going you should be fine so this uses a thick style
radiator much like the corser h70 or h80 which means that if you are running in
push pull it's ideal because there is a lot of resistance to the air being
pushed or pulled through the radiator if you don't have two fans and in order to
get the best possible performance out of the surface area you have available you
want to make sure you're pushing lots of air flow through it now when they talk
about super flexible tubes they are not kidding these are just like the N the
ones on the ntech 920 where you can bend them up like this
and you can see look ma no Kinks so you will be able to get adequate liquid flow
to your CPU regardless of what kind of a
you know contortionist configuration you have to do in order to get the block
positioned correctly over your over your
processor now the other thing that can be a bit of a challenge for these is you
got to make sure you do have adequate room in your case most cases that accept
a 120 mm cooling fan at the back will work with this kind of a radiator you
can see there's a small tank at the top as well as a small tank at the bottom
but on the sides they're fairly low profile so it's exactly the width of
okay slightly more than the width of a
fan I think that pretty much covers it if you want to know how it performs go
find out how an h70 performs and it's going to be pretty much that but probably a little bit better cuz these
are better fans and uh you got your
unlocked FX processor thing going on on the top here that's where the RGB LEDs
are so you can actually change the color of the FX in there I guess I'd recommend
red I mean you can make it blue if you want but I think we all know why that
would be wrong so don't forget to subscribe to lineus Tech tips for more
