  • i laughed my farking ass off when he said "pivot balls"

  • After a little over a year the o-ring gave up and the fluid leaked over the mobo and vid card on mine.

  • That's actually not that good for 3.2GHz... I get 50c @ 3.45GHz on that test with my air cooled system. I also notice you didn't mention whether this was a passive or active system. I could understand those temps on a passive system but that's running way to hot for an active system.

  • @percheron1654 : are you using a Core i7 965 CPU?

  • @trubritar Phenom II x4 965 b.e.; I didn't like the price to performance ratio for the i7 965. And I'm an avid OC'er so I don't care for the i7's locked clock speed... Maybe I should build a system around an i7 and do some comparative benchmarks, just for the hell of it.

  • I have a question, i just opened my package from koolance, with this water block, but mine didn't come with those pivot balls..can i still install it or do i need them?

  • Hi there,

    Yes, you can still install it using the newer revised mounting bracket.

    Trub

  • hey trubitar are you going to do a review on the cpu-360? im trying to decide if i should get that or the heatkiller 3.0

  • It's out

  • Hello Trubritar,

    again a very informative video, which leaves no question unanswered. I appreciate your hard work very much.

    So again thank you for this video.

    Take care and many greetings.

  • LOL, my coolmaster CPU fan/heatsink keeps my AMD Phenom 4x quadcore stock 2.42GHz at 42-44 C. it is way bigger and has two fans on it too...and yes i know this is running at higher GHz.

    i want to build a liquid cooled PC some day. i think they are cool. my only hesetation is the chance of a tiny leak costing me hundreds of dollars in components. i do love the cooling power and look of liquid cooling with UV reflective tubes and UV lights.

  • "WOAH!" wata legend!

  • i have this block, it works great, i lapped it though.

  • It is commonly know that a piece of glass runs games 100% faster than the Core i7 series CPUS!

  • ya and its commonly known that you can drive 100% faster on a peice of class then on a ferrari.

    its also commonly known that a peice of glass is 100% more protection then a condom.

    fuck off idiot

  • yea, if you really wouldn't care, you wouldn't have posted this. And you didn't do anything to me, you just acted like another idiot from youtube. Thats what you did.

  • Comment removed

  • no I didn't get abused as a child, and its funny seeing you rage at some random person that flames you on youtube.

  • lol =P

  • The f*ck is your problem, you gay or something? If AMD was a guy you'll f*ck him. Stop talking sh*t about intel and watch the mother f*cken video!

  • WHOA WHOA!! I'm not bashing anything buddy! I was just makin' a joke. xD

  • oh then my bad, XD Game on!

  • Woooaaa , Phenomenal !!!

    But if you buy Nice 4 Fan Radiator - what will happen than ? OMFG ??? =()

  • well you don't really need a 4fan radiator.

    3fan provides 1000w of heat dissipation, which is plenty enough for running a system like that liquid cooled.

  • Eating McDonald's Big Mac

  • ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL

  • ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL

  • WOAAAAAA

  • Nice visual touch with the glass there. Pro reviews must take lots of time. Any outtakes Trub?

  • wake up prodject dot koooom

  • hey, which tubing size do you use on this waterblock????thx

  • when purchasing it from koolance it gives you the option between 1/4" or 3/8" or 1/2" nozzles

  • Comment removed

  • balls and nuts!? O,o

    LMAO

  • BBQ stick pointer > 3DGameman's pencil xD

  • hell yea, but you fail to consider his ability to use it to point out the baltently obvious lol

  • i bet he spread the thermal paste, it fades from when he puts it over to when its actually on the galss, lol

  • Those tension nuts look hot

    Haha, just kidding. I just got this from Koolance and man it's sexy... a shame no one can see it in my computer. The cold plate is definitely the shiniest thing in my computer :)

  • using a coolmaster CM stacker EVO 830

  • LOL im running a core i7 940 overclocked to 3.8ghz and a ThermalRight Ultra Extreme Fan. It runs at 32C all the time.

    I guess watercooling isnt always the best.

  • What case are you using with that setup?

  • Do you live in the arctic? lol. I suspect whatever you're using to measure the heat isn't quite accurate. Lots of programs are 10-15 degrees celsisus too low than the real temp. But that could of course just be fromy experience, glad you have a good air cooled rig.

  • Can't overcome logic and physics. A block with a fan can-not dissipate as much heat from a source as a block with a continuously flowing cooling solution in an average ambient temperature room. So unless you have your computer sitting in an ice box, I would question 32C @ 3.8 on air. No magic involved. Same concept as the coolant in your cars engine. Transfer more heat into a flowing solution than you can into a static fin or block, unless you live in arctic as Fusiongt007 suggested O.o

  • prolimatech megaphalem heatsink can cool overclocked i7 920 @ 3.8 Ghz to 39C

  • Agreed.

  • very professional reviews help me through some tough decisions, 5 stars

  • Has anyone ever used Oil in one of these ? That be interesting, put oil instead of water, what can happen.

  • irrelevant. The only advantage of using oil is that the oil has a higher specific heat capacity (aka can store more energy without heating up) but since the water is being cycled through the cooling system fairly quickly this never would become an issue.

  • Sure sure, it all sounds very good and dandy. However, with water we have to change it, and be careful with the tank getting green, or algae. I wanna know how it would be like with oil. The termo. difference, how long to it will take to change the oil. Will things perform better, can the oil mess up the pump, will the tubes hold. It sounds interesting to me. Can't wait to see if someone ever test it out. So should YOU mate !

  • you shouldn't be using tap water if algae is a problem. Try using chemically pure water, maybe with the addition of a small amount of chlorine and it'll never get algae or clog. Also make sure that the system is sterile before you fill it and that the pipes are not see through!

    Thermally oil would be identical (understand the science going on in the system and this should become apparent) - though you might need a different (and likely more expensive)pump as oil is thicker than water.

  • most of the time, if you used distilled water in the water cooler, wash your hand well before touching any components(wear latex gloves if available) and keep the system totally sealed, you shouldn't get any algea or growth in the system. Sometimes the green goop that appears is a residue from the copper, it happens because of a chemical reaction with the coolant. So dont touch your cooler, and it should stay clean!

  • you remind me of mr bean lol

    nice video btw

  • WOW! that is AAMM-BELIEVABLE!!!!

  • WOA! THAT IS AAMM BALIEVABLE!

  • I just downloaded cinebench R10, and did the bike test you did. I got 3:46 :(

  • u need to include prices in these videos lol because im too lazy to go look them up... just a thought

  • Hi,Iam going to switch to water cooling soon and wondering if the CPU-350 from koolance already has the core i7 LGA1366 brackets with it.

  • Hi there,

    The CPU-350 comes with all the variations of brackets to suit a majority of the CPU sockets out there....Both AMD and Intel.

  • i noticed that trub likes the koolance blocks. how about their exos system? what water cooling systems do you use aside from the zalman, if there are any?

  • he use it in the other OC vid with I7 965 but doesn't show rad or anything like that. Also he is using the 350s koolance not the 345

  • very nice review and the new design from koolance is awsome

  • how do u make that @ 6:55

  • Microsoft Excel

  • Hey Trubritar. Thanks for the review.

    I'm using the PMP-450 17L/min (4.5 gal/min)@24v (13mm hosing throughout) feeding the CPU water block to a HX-422 Single 120mm Radiator, XFX 9800GX2 BlackEd., HX-720 Dual 120mm Radiator, then back to the Reservoir.

    My questions are:

    1 is this the right loop set up or should the radiators be before the cooling blocks (as had no problems so far)

    2 out of the 345 & 350 water blocks which do you recommend for the Q9000 series CPUs in a high flow setup?

  • cant wait for the next vid.... awsome video like always Trub.

    NoxeN

  • I want money so I can do these tests :(

  • Why is Intel coming out with these bullcrap stock heatsinks for their crown jewel processors? Don't they realize a bad reputation will lead people to care less about their product?

  • Trubritar, this is a nice cooling system, but I would be interested in seeing a review on the Hardcore-reactor liquid submersion pc's. I'm speaking about the rigs completely filled with non-conductive liquid, and all the components submerged inside.

  • the HD is fine??

    what u guys on about ?

    there is no lag

    its perfect and stop maoning about it

  • lol he so works for Koolance :p

  • you guys must have bad gpu's then because if you have like a 9800 gtx+ which i have, nothing is really slow about HD

  • Does he work from some company or is just made of money? :/

  • The HD is seriously low FPS,I'd rather have a smooth 30 FPS than "HD"

  • FRAPS is saying that it's displaying at 15-19 FPS, really slow i know : (

  • no it's 30fps LMFAO

  • in full screen it chops down to around 20fps, and i have a decent PC so shut your grid you arrogant cunt

  • why doesn't it slow down on my PC then LMAO

  • what kind of crappy computer you have then that can't even run youtube's hd videos LOL on my comp all HD videos run with 30fps LMAO

  • maybe is your budget PC.... JK, But seriously there isnt anything wrong with the video

  • btw, that was reply to dienumank

  • I can run HD videos at 60+ fps...uhhm,yeah.

    SO YOU CAN SUCK IT

  • grow up

  • Sorry,typical youtube response for everything.

  • wtf are you talking about? get yourself a fucking dual core or a quad core cpu and then come talking about HD lagg

  • I was originally talking on my less powerful computer,which by the way,has a 2600XT. This thing does have a dual core and a gtx 260.

    The other computer _does not_ lag on HD.

  • probably because i'm using a BETA flashplayer & i've already got a dual core so shut your mouth you fat prick

  • hehe, mu Pentium 4 on 90-98% kui ma vaatan HD-s videot :)

  • you should speak english...

  • computenator will understand what i said, i said that my Pentium 4 usage is 90-99% when I'm watching video in HD on youtube.

  • wow very interesting technology with the mounting plate and curved cpu block.

    think u do great reviews but this one has actually peaked my interest in koolance water blocks. wonder if dd, ek and swiftech will adopt similar blocks in their next generation

  • great review trub catch ya on the forums ukgouki

    to the haters trub isnt a fanboy get a life yeah ::)

  • What was the Cinebech 10 completion time for the 965? Because man those physical and logical cores were just blasting through there...

  • Those Temps are too high for a i7 965 Extreme Core 45-49 degrees celsius and its not even overclocked. My Core 2 Quad 2.4 GHZ runs at 19degrees celsius and its overclocked to 3.20 on a Maximus Formula X38.

  • i bet you're not havin your cpu bein utilized at 100%

  • there is no need for my cpu to be @ 100%, If the i7 965 extreme core is @ 49C @ full load and not overclocked then It'll probably be @ 70 or 80 if overclocked @ full load, turdly.

  • lol im not a perve or nuttin but when he say tension nutz made me laugh

  • This might as well be the koolance channel. your always pushing their products. Maxishine overclocked it easy to 4ghz on air.

  • hmm thats weird because maxishine overclocked it to 4 ghz easily on air

  • where does maxishine broadcast live?

  • Maxishine didnt run any benches...he even said it was idled fool.

  • my bad, you don't have to call me names...

  • how many tyme does a cpu like that holds whith that temperatures?

  • too hot for a new processor! Sucks!

  • Please do a test with the Koolance 345 and Swiftech GTZ in comparison.

  • I really enjoy watching your videos trub, keep up the good work.

  • Looks like a nicely engineered solution and the curve invites all sorts of questions about lapping.

    Water-colling is still very scary, though.

  • theres nothing scary about watercooling. its a closed system, they dont leak unless you suck

  • lol...it dont leak unless u suck hhahahah

  • outstanding

  • holy shit i7s run hot

  • I want to see you OC that bad boy with the koolance water block!

  • PHENOMENAL!

  • does koolance sponsor you?

    great vids btw

  • looks even more awesome in HD.

    thanks for taking the time to post your vids trubritar.

  • Awesome

  • Holy shit 80c without an overclock? I thought 40nm technology was supposed to make things cooler or something...

  • it is suppossed to

  • another great video trub. keep it up.

  • Hey your video are great. Can you make another 4th of July video for us Americans on one of them Video cards of your?

    Thanks. =D

  • that takes a lot of money haha.

  • Great video once again m8 keep them coming great channel you got here for all pc enthusiasts.

  • is it possible to lap waterblocks?

  • Yeah off coarse

  • So, judging by the first look at the bottom of the CPU, I'm assuming there is a ceiling fan in that room ...

    Either way, I wouldn't mind seeing a new comparison between Tri-SLI and CrossFireX. I haven't heard anything really about CrossFireX performance on the X58, other than how 2 HD 4870 X2s scaled horribly before launch. However, SLI and especially Tri-SLI showed significant gains over the 790i platform. I think it would definitely be a worthwhile comparison on the new even ground.

  • Thanks for the video! Thats one hot CPU!

  • WOW HD is cool!!!

  • pivot BAWLSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

  • The EVGA X58 SLI is SLI and CrossFire X compatible all the X58 MOBOs are SLI and CrossFire X Compatible if NVIDIA has Certified them for SLI with out the certification they can only run CrossFire X

  • This cpu is hot as hell ...

  • if i was to overclock the i7 965 i would not have mess on my hand just a faster cpu lol

  • get a lazer pen and give the kebab stick a rest lol.

  • omg XD really,

    results are nice trub ;)

  • You are welcome, all my vids are filmed in HD, it's just that Youtube used to downgrade them.

  • Thanks Trubritar, keep it up!

  • I'm a new subscriber, I love your videos man keep up the excellent work.

  • tension nuts :P

  • he looks funky

  • Maxishine Trubitar tharlow all pwn

  • In order:

    1-tjharlow

    2-trubritar

    3-maxishine

  • Nice a liquid cooler for a I7 finaly :)

  • pretty hot CPU...

    i'll stick with AMD though... ^^

  • oh nice i jsut realised trubrit has HD

  • very professionally done video. Awesome waterblock.

    Favourited!

  • absolutely phenomenal!

  • maxishine overclocked his on air to 4ghz....... no mess..

  • And he is in Oz, not wales :D

  • Yea and w/ the stock Heatsink lol that's amazing..

  • i idle @ the max load water test >:L

  • Unless your CPU is a bottleneck, not much point in these i7s...yet. That's unless you have a SLi or X-fire setup. For gaming, single GPU setups see little improvement in the framerate compared to Core2. Obviously encoding and rendering is going to be the i7's forte. I say wait for the 8 core 32nm shrink :D

  • Im Thinking of getting the 920 and overclocking it via water cooling again. but damm thats a hell a lot of money to spend just to get my encoding times down a little :D

  • My 920 is hot has hell with stock also.

  • Trubitar you try to hard to make your videos perfect... it would actually be better if you would make more ''freestyle'' videos

  • HD is great

  • YOU LOOK LIKE The Jigsaw Killer!~

  • What do you think of the EVGA X58 SLI MOBO E-LEET OverClocking Utility

  • should have used some good thermal paste..

  • very nice. But i don't get that pivot balls.

  • Love this review as usual of trubs videos!! I think Area 51 project will be cool!

  • once again great review :)

  • Grate Video Trubritar looking forwered to seeing Crysis with this nd 3-WAY SLI

  • koolance sucks.. buy danger den..

  • lol...

  • wow thats a hot CPU, whats the TDP on it?

    I guess intel do assume people who get there extreme series will water cool.

    Now ya going onto 1366, does this mean you will be selling your 775 CPUs?

  • CPU-3456789 is better

  • if u want to see some review and benchmarks of the core i7 "965" look at my videos. i have also 2 x 4870x2 .

  • Damn. Nearly 50% drop.. Outstanding!

  • trubritar you should lapp that cpu to even up the temps and get better temps

    youll get better contact too make sure that waterblock is flat all so

  • Great job on this vid Trub, you really prove Koolance has got their stuff together when you showed the inside of the block and of course, the benchmarks.

  • The temps are just as i mentioned in my video maxishine says his runs cool at 4ghz with air cooling lol. Overclock on air at your peril

  • oh btw what does it get on cinebench R10?

    you showed it running but never showed the results

  • Can you explain to me what Thermal Paste Curing Time is?

    I'm about to build a computer soon... I want to make sure that everything's wright.

  • it is paste that goes in between the cpu and the fan that helps to keep it cool

  • Not the paste.. I know what the paste is.

    I'm talking about the Curing Time.. what is it?

  • if you get arctic cooling MX-2 thermal paste there is no cure time

    its some of the best thermal paste IMO the best

  • What about the OCZ-Freeze Extreme used in this video? I heard it beats the MX-2 at cooling.

  • great!

  • Great vid! Keep up the good work. I am also wondering if you are going to test out the CPU-350. I am planning on getting it for my 965.

  • Yes i will be conducting a comparable benchmark with the CPU-350AC..Check back very soon!
