Installation

    This unit was sent to me already assembled and installed, so the hard work was done. The only thing I had to do was mount the waterblock to the CPU, and this process was a breeze. For the first-timer to watercooling, your installation will take some time to get use to. But take your time and things will go fine. The fittings for the tubing are easy to use and reliable for a leak-free install.

Testing and Results

    During the tests I ran 2 programs separately: Prime95 and BurnInTest ver4.0. Each test ran for 1 hour with a 30 minute break in between tests. The temps listed below are the average results from both tests. Both 120mm fans ran off of 12 volts.

Conclusion

    QUIET QUIET QUIET!  What else can I say? The pump is so quiet I can't even hear it from a few inches away. Same goes for the dual 120mm fans. Just a few feet away and they're quiet and that's on 12volts. Imagine what the results would sound like if a fan controller was used. I wish I could say that for my hard drives.

   As for the function of the cooling system, it works flawlessly. During the testing the temperatures were stable. Oh... did I mention it was QUIET? (Shhh!! the baby is sleeping.)

   I didn't have the opportunity to actually hook up the tubing to the Alphacool components since it was all pre-configured from FrozenCPU, but from my experience with those types of connections, keeping it leak free should not be a problem.
