00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:06.799
now nothing here is a totally new and radical concept water coolers aren't new

00:00:04.759 --> 00:00:11.360
pre-filled water coolers aren't new and ones from Cooler Master aren't even new

00:00:08.920 --> 00:00:16.359
but they're still pretty proud of the nepton 240m they're all like yeah it's

00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:21.240
got high quality included fans it's got a completely Cooler Master designed and

00:00:19.080 --> 00:00:27.760
manufactured pump with great quality we put a 5year warranty on it and all that

00:00:24.039 --> 00:00:30.119
stuff so let's find out then if it's as

00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:34.440
good as it sounds on paper by the way speaking of things that sound our

00:00:57.879 --> 00:01:04.960
the surface there's not much to differentiate nepton 240m from other

00:01:01.719 --> 00:01:06.880
premium dual 120 mm fan liquid coolers

00:01:04.960 --> 00:01:11.880
the CPU block and pump combo unit features a flat machined copper base

00:01:09.360 --> 00:01:16.759
plate on the bottom with a white LED lit Cooler Master logo on top and two side

00:01:14.360 --> 00:01:22.280
mounted swivel fittings that connect to the pre-attached fluorinated ethylene

00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:28.240
propylene tubing that appears to be closer to 38 in internal diameter than

00:01:24.479 --> 00:01:30.439
a/4 in but manages this wider flow path

00:01:28.240 --> 00:01:34.720
without any extra susceptibility to kinking very nice the radiator it's

00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:40.680
connected to is a fairly standard aluminum finned 27 mm thick dual 120 mm

00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:45.119
air with what I would describe as moderate fin density so for the quiet

00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:50.920
freaks out there it should be suitable for use with low RPM fans as long as

00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:56.960
they deliver High static pressure even at low RPM which leads us to the fans

00:01:54.640 --> 00:02:00.880
these things are actually a fantastic upgrade over the fans that Cooler Master

00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:06.600
used to buy bundle with their neptun coolers they run it anywhere from 800 to

00:02:03.079 --> 00:02:09.000
2400 RPM they were extremely quiet at

00:02:06.600 --> 00:02:14.000
1100 RPM the setting that we standardize on for our performance testing and on

00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:18.239
top of having Square frames which allows them to seal better against the radiator

00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:22.959
for improved static pressure they have this included rubber gasket in the box

00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:27.319
that further reduces vibration and air leakage I'd say my only complaint about

00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:30.680
their new silencio fans is that you don't seem to be able to buy them

00:02:28.959 --> 00:02:36.200
Standalone you can only get them with the cooler cuz they're pretty darn good

00:02:33.239 --> 00:02:39.120
installation was a breeze on LGA 2011 the pump is efficient enough to be

00:02:37.760 --> 00:02:45.800
powered by a fan header on your motherboard which makes life a little bit easier and the mounting hardware is

00:02:42.760 --> 00:02:49.920
both solid you

00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:51.720
know and easy to use so if I had to make

00:02:49.920 --> 00:02:57.360
one criticism here I guess it would be that the tubing runs felt a little bit

00:02:54.159 --> 00:02:59.599
long for me but users with larger cases

00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:04.680
may be very thankful that the tubing is a a little bit on the longer side so

00:03:01.480 --> 00:03:07.480
your mileage may vary which leads us to

00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:13.440
Performance yes performance was actually very good the neptun 240m is competitive

00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:20.480
with pretty much anything else on the playing field including even Swift tax

00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:22.239
h220x expandable aiio but at a lower

00:03:20.480 --> 00:03:26.480
price and with more flexible mounting options like Swift tax one because the

00:03:24.480 --> 00:03:30.159
pump and Reservoir are on the radiator can only be mounted like this way and

00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:35.120
this way only whereas the nepon kind of be positioned however you want it's just

00:03:32.799 --> 00:03:40.640
it comes inherently with the pump being on the CPU and not having a reservoir it

00:03:38.920 --> 00:03:45.200
should be noted though that it does all this without the expandability that

00:03:42.680 --> 00:03:49.159
Swift Tech solution affords where you can start throwing in graphics card

00:03:46.760 --> 00:03:54.760
blocks and stuff like that one thing of note here is that upgrading to Noctua

00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:57.799
n12 fans does as it always seems to

00:03:54.760 --> 00:03:59.239
improve the performance but not so

00:03:57.799 --> 00:04:03.760
dramatically this time that we'd consider them a necessary upgrade for

00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:09.079
potential buyers the ones in the Box are a very solid option with nice sleeved

00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:14.200
four pin pwm connectors and all that good stuff so overall the neptun 240m is

00:04:12.239 --> 00:04:17.040
a winner which is a relief for me because we've been running ads for it on

00:04:15.760 --> 00:04:20.400
our videos for a little while now and it's always refreshing to know that the

00:04:18.919 --> 00:04:24.639
stuff we're advertising even if we're not specifically endorsing it also

00:04:22.680 --> 00:04:28.800
happens to kick butt I mean I hate it when you guys buy stuff that isn't as

00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:33.560
good as it could possibly be speaking of things we advertise that kick butt man

00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:38.639
that was a great segue it's BlizzCon time again and Intel has some pretty

00:04:35.400 --> 00:04:40.639
awesome stuff going on in there their

00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:43.840
Booth is located near the Hearthstone stage and they're going to be showcasing

00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:48.400
the latest and greatest Tech from Intel so you guys might remember the last year

00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:52.639
Hearthstone with touch launched at BlizzCon and Intel was showing off

00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:55.560
tablets with Hearthstone touch running so that's probably also going to be

00:04:54.520 --> 00:05:02.080
there it's a pretty safe beted especially with their new corm processors available they're going to of

00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:04.600
course have gaming rigs with an emphasis

00:05:02.080 --> 00:05:09.120
on like you know high res gaming high performance gaming and they just

00:05:06.199 --> 00:05:13.280
launched Haswell e back around the PS prime time frame so they're going to

00:05:10.880 --> 00:05:18.400
have like six core and eight core gaming rigs going on up in there with ddr4

00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:22.080
they've got a screen app where attendees can come by and take pictures in front

00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:25.680
of it they're going to have twitch streamers streaming at their Booth this

00:05:24.520 --> 00:05:30.360
is something that they've done before it's pretty darn cool if you want to meet some of your you know favorite

00:05:28.520 --> 00:05:37.400
twitch personalities that happen to be there they're going to be offering some deals through New Egg on an nus Rog

00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:40.440
laptop the Lenovo y50 4K gaming laptop

00:05:37.400 --> 00:05:43.800
and the Lenovo Horizon 2

00:05:40.440 --> 00:05:45.720
27in Allin one so the promo codes are

00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:49.160
available in the Intel BlizzCon thread on the form that's Linked In the video

00:05:47.400 --> 00:05:53.720
description and the codes expire December 31st so you don't actually have

00:05:51.160 --> 00:05:57.479
to like buy anything this second you could be a present for the holiday

00:05:55.520 --> 00:06:02.639
season or it could even be something to spend like if your parents and relatives

00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:08.759
love you a lot more than mine ever did something to spend your Christmas money

00:06:04.280 --> 00:06:10.120
on after the Christmas season so guys I

00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:14.919
think that pretty much wraps it up like this video if you liked it dislike it if you disliked it leave a comment if your

00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:17.880
feelings are more complicated than this check the link in the video description

like this one or just change your Amazon bookmark to one with our affiliate code

00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:29.720
so we get a small Kickback whenever you buy water coolers thanks again for

00:06:28.039 --> 00:06:31.919
watching and as always don't for forg get to
