Antec Kuhler H20 920 Liquid Cooling System Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

[Gherhard458]

What will you reccomend the corsair h100 or the ANTEC KUHLER H20 920

[nintendofreak11]

Would this thicker rad be comparable to a dual 120 rad in terms of performance (and fan noise)? As I am looking to get maybe this/h80 or the h100.

[bartjeh2]

this or the corsair H80?

[TheManMetal]

@bartjeh2 this :D

[Ri1seAgainst]

my socket is above the sun, support?

[Flashmurder]

You're a fag

[UKFLARE]

@Flashmurder fam ur an idiot, this guy is sirkk, gives me alot of info from his vids.

if hes a fag why u watching this, are you a fag or something?

[TheSmokinStarfish]

@Flashmurder You're a homophobic loser.

[MrCGangsta]

ok ok u not crazy lol

[atibbo]

well this fit in the NZXT Phantom ??

[eurosonly]

@atibbo yes

[jackiecrane57]

don't buy this fucking thing. i spent 110 bucks. the WHOLE point of getting liquid cooling, was to make it silent. needless to say, it sounds like a fucking refrigerator. i should've stuck with air. 

[adamroseski]

@jackiecrane57 water cooling isn't to make it silent its more do do with keeping it cooler and for high amount of over clocking

[TheObsidianPaladin]

@jackiecrane57 and to continue from what adamroseski said, if you want this to be quite then a good idea would be to get 2 120mm fans with a low dba so that it is silent

[Roxas7234]

@jackiecrane57 You know you can just replace the 2 120mm fans with 2 silent ones?

[jackiecrane57]

@Roxas7234 its not that fans that are loud, the fans are silent, its the dreaded PUMP :(

[Bushiey]

TUBING

BLOCKS!

[PyroMania61]

Should I blow the air out the back of my case in a push/pull config. Or use a push/pull config. to "suck" air inside my case.

Which one would result in lower cpu temps?

But will the overall temp in the case rise if i suck air in?

[r1fl3man]

@PyroMania61 PLEASE make it blow out of the case, especially if you have fans at the front of the case as well because if you make it suck air in it would completely disrupt air flow. So yea never make a rear fan suck air inside the case!

[lantyboy696]

Is this better than the corsair h80?

[TheGobedan]

He is not crazy russian. He is crazy canadian!

[L2divine]

@pontus94 he says,"u mad bro?"

[MrZiimong]

@L2divine did the cameraman say that? in what language?

[L2divine]

@MrZiimong in mumblese.

[MrZiimong]

@L2divine where do you speak it? in canada only?

[L2divine]

@MrZiimong quite possibly, wouldn't know not from Canada, nor do I speak it. I was just able to translate that small phrase a @ 0:48

[MrZiimong]

@L2divine ok

[Torry009]

@L2divine he is Russian.

[dartdelko]

i bought the atec kuhler h2o 920 2 days ago , and everytime i try to open the chill control , i get a " device not connected , please check device " error . i did it all right , connected the pwr cable and the usb cable to my motherboard , and even the RGB logo lights up on the cooler lights up and the fans are running , i just cant seem to make the chill control software work . can you help ?

[SBBUK]

@dartdelko make sure your CPU fan speed is set to 100% in your motherboard bios, otherwise it doesnt provide enough power

[nicholaschean]

This or h80?  cant decide

[MouseHunteR77n]

Is this Better Then Corsair H70?

Or they the Same ?

[Wanting333]

@MouseHunteR77n its more like the h80

[mirrmovies]

Umadbro?

[SauseMix007]

I just watched the video cause of the srs surrounding

[ThatUnfunGuy]

0:41

Well if your socket is under the sun it needs cooling! xD

[aLongLostSniper]

quick unboxing? its 8:26 long, lol

[noobertification]

and 30% pain!

[aeroaa2]

what are the difference between this and the h70

[militant123]

@aeroaa2 nothing they are the same as coolit give them the components.

[CaptainP00face]

This, or Corsair H70/H80?

[militant123]

@CaptainP00face this since corsair wont be making no more as coolit have stopped supplying them the parts

[tuberoako777]

4:51 "And I am not that much of a crazy either!.." *SNIFFS* *GRUUNT*

[RafaelvonBannisseht]

does enyone also think this looks like a corsair H70?

[jewie27]

@RafaelvonBannisseht Asetek makes these liquid coolers for Corsair, Antec, etc...

[RafaelvonBannisseht]

@jewie27 wow no shit sherlock.

[jeef16]

is this better than the H70? I mean this is cool but it directly copies the H70 in terms of design except the custom LED and the software. The H70 comes with a fan splitter which is nice but I also like the LED on this one. Also, the H70 is cheaper. I was just wondering if this cooler out-performs the H70

[trumbachd1]

@LinusTechTips Is it possible to have *Too Much* cooling for a given system?

If so, What harm might it do to said system?

[jeef16]

@trumbachd1 there is none. The only harm is if you do a custom water cooling system(non pre-filled) with tubing and the water leaks out onto the motherboard. Also, with the traditional water cooler, the pump is on the CPU bracket, which may cause it to break it you handle and shake the computer around too much. Other than that, "extra" cooling has no negative effect on your computer.

[toneyrahulsharma]

Dont call him CRAZY !!!

[Bubaka54]

what happened to camraman?

[adampope64]

@Bubaka54 he turned into a Russian

[GrumpyClown]

Pretty please, compare this to corsair's H70

[kohit7]

antecs fans suck. they are loud and dont push any air

[marinmarinhola]

how many water coolers do you need for 24 gigs of ram, i7 3,2 Ghz(turbo boost 5.3)

[FelixDLJ]

@marinmarinhola Do you have any idea what you're talking about? The 920 is a "closed" cooler, and it will only work with your CPU, meaning you can't install more than one (two if your motherbord supports two CPUs ofc.)

...if you want to cool your RAM/GPU('s)/etc. you need a custom cooling kit - they're far more expensive, just fyi.

[OneManShowShow]

finally a cool looking and sounding person on youtube! a rarity!

[181pottsy]

the fans on this thing are too loud at 100% lol. I replaced mine with gt 1850's

[JonnMcNally]

The camera black levels are really off...

[techkid1000]

This or H70? Thanks

[JonnMcNally]

@techkid1000 This hands down.

[techkid1000]

@JonnMcNally Also what about this compared to the Noctua D14 and U12p? Thanks

[JonnMcNally]

@techkid1000 The Noctua D14 cools about the same as this. If you just want a cool CPU and don't care about aesthtics (or the other benefits of a water cooler), then go with the Noctua D14.

[techkid1000]

@JonnMcNally Ok.... but what cooler is nice and quite that looks pretty good? Noctua is kinda brown :/

[JonnMcNally]

@techkid1000 Yeah....perhaps you should go with the Kuhler 920 then. XD Well, actually, you don't seem very knowledgeable about these things, so I'm assuming you're not even going to take the full advantage of these coolers, so, I would recommend the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus. It works well for certain needs and is cheap, also it isn't brown.

[techkid1000]

@JonnMcNally Well I wasn't even planning on getting a cooler before I decided to overclock with the 2600k. also, is the 560 TI twin frozr video card very loud? Or would you recommend the XFX 6870 Black Edition. Thanks

[JonnMcNally]

@techkid1000 Sorry, I don't have the answer to that mate. 

[alexbeast14]

@techkid1000 GTX560Ti for best price > performance ratio. Great performer.

[reallydumbproduction]

Everything about that is exactly the same as the H70! Even the packaging wth!

Camera man says U mad bro

[Dtemplar22]

Pls get less douche camera man

[dontpuchit]

can you just buy parts to build a computer or do you need sertain parts for sertain

motherboards and grephics coard.

[PAINmedia]

@dontpuchit Yes... I'd not recommend for someone like you to build a PC...

[rubenlief]

0:49 for the cameraman speaking! :o

[brad5126]

wtf with the camera

[leogatobhzte]

It would be a good idea if Linus start to use the old camera back.

[NationalPerfection]

I thought that higher temps were better. It would seem that the higher your temps are the hotter your system will be, producing more power which makes your computer faster.

[umais09]

@NationalPerfection ch ch

bad video quality

[TheQhozt]

This vs H70 vs NH-D14

Please Linus ;D

[ch1ck3n08]

@TheQhozt lets do the H100 instead of H70 which will be in stores in some time, much more interested in the performance of that thing :D

[Macsimus007]

@TheQhozt D14 is better, there are many comparisons online.

[situsrc]

Today we gonna doing a quick unboxing.....8+ minutes :D

[1914Sephiroth]

@situsrc i've seen some unboxings 12+ minutes so yeah this is pretty quick :D

[Mobliz]

yay you changed your shirt!

[rob3342421]

yay! the mic is no longer a killer of ears ;p

[brokenornamentsjaby]

Linus has a wedding ring on... never noticed that before

[kibblesftw]

Shit video quality. Unsubbing.

[PenguInspiration]

@kibblesftw No YouTube user wants a picky fag like you as a subscriber. You did Linus a favor.

[SkywalkerXXL]

It's not Kuhler it's Kühler and means cooler ;)

[omer2324]

Mic is fine, but whats up with the filter on the camera?

Either way its linus, so idc :D

[atersky]

So they basically took the H70 and made it even better, nice.

[silvex300]

this video looks like its 20 years old its pretty cool

[Flamewarrior968]

@mauricioberlanga Haha yes 1:01

[1Ezk]

thx god the audio is fixed

[lostthesun123]

You should totally do a heat and noise comparison with the Corsair H70

[CoDMoDzHD]

I bought this 920. It's fucking awesome. But for the price atm, get a noctua or an H70 until the price goes down.

[3clayman]

thanks for fixing the mic

[engelskogtysk]

sry but i just noticed that you wrote H20(twenty) in the title but really its H2O(two-O)...

hehe and before you ask yes im OCD!:D

[Silvah777]

@engelskogtysk

Are you OCD?

HURRR! DURRR!

[CJ2GAME]

OMG Linus got married :O

[KlingonSpider]

@CJ2GAME to a woman???

[MooshiDash]

@groundwire123 Corsair fanboy detected. Aside from the H60; the H50, H70, Kuhler 620 and Kuhler 920 are made by the SAME OEM which is Asetek. Calling something "cheap" compared to another product which is almost virtually the same because of different branding...lol, you're funny.

[zxcv1175]

real men watch in 240p

[stanonfire]

Linus, you're a pretty cool guy and all, but you dress like a massive chav :)

[DBZMANIAC13]

The cameraman is a /b/ro

[groundwire123]

MIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Common nothing has changed from the last 3 vids or so. you seem to be bouncing from crappy sound, to crappy camera, then crappy sound again and so forth. What is going on bro? did crazy Russian drop the mic in the toilet or what?

[26psyside]

@groundwire123

Sound is not so good, video quallity is but hey stop whine already, its easiely watchable.

[heroinfernox]

AWFUL CAMERA ! awful sound awful.

[ninjaturtle205]

60% of the comments are about the camera and the mic

[Hypnot47]

@ninjaturtle205 sry but cant agree, how did u do your calcs? i think is 61.333%

[Justdiespawn]

u mad bro?

[MintSauce42]

lol y u mad tho

[Zomgwtfbbq1228]

U MAD BRAH!!!! -cameraman

[JeemOfRunescape]

NEW MIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­ HALELUJA!

[chrisros1997]

Just ordered the Antec H2O 620, was only €50 here in Holland, it was realy cheap compared to the H50/60 and other, also its preformance is 0,4C warmer (like nothing)

[groundwire123]

@chrisros1997 I knew it was crap wen it came out. I have always been a fan of Corsair products and the H70 for a year now is still pumping. I wouldn't purchase this piece of crap if it was 90% off. But good unboxing though

[Dachi1991]

#LOL @ 4:54 ewwwwwww!

[stryke92]

it has USB connector, some power is drawn from there too, USB standard = 5V, 500mAh

[junkyard12320]

are you using that new camera you unboxed? The quality is way worse.. and the Audio quality isn't anything awesome either. this might have killed the mood of your videos.

[SirCrest]

@junkyard12320 Looks like a cellphone... I agree.

[junkyard12320]

@SirCrest but.. I do enjoy the intro!

[thatsit07]

linus was gonna rip the tubing out whe he was going for the cover

[simzep]

old cam was better pictures are really colourless

[TheSkejt]

For my eyes, old camera was better !

[godofdeath50]

anyone notice linus's hello kitty?

[Rapagangsta]

H70?

[jaggedspikerespawn]

hahahaha linus what did u do to the camera man, he is pissed in this video

[Lepsche95]

Better than H70?

[jaggedspikerespawn]

@Lepsche95 H70 isn't that great to begin with, there are better air coolers. But its better for silence.

[TheReiito]

im sure antec has been making fans for 3 million years

[sirDanes]

Has the video quality gone down? to me it looks like it's being recorded with an old phone.. the colors are weird

[Ent3rnalAbyss]

Linus, the quality of your videos is going down. Before it was sound, now it is video quality. Please do something about it. And that lame into... Hate it.

[kylerozek1]

Wow, Linus and the Cameraman finally got married! Congrats you guys!

[MooshiDash]

@dan12pax Go with the 920. Higher quality fans with a max CFM of 110 - dBA is 27.4, you control/monitor the temps via software on the desktop vs fooling the BIOS in the motherboard since it's connected to a USB header, more flexible tubing, even though it shares the same OEM of the H70, the 920 uses a newer block and the Antec logo on the pump/block is lit up with LEDs if you're into that.

[fr0gina]

u mad bro

[dirtmerchant18]

so linus fixes his audio but meses up his video lol. win

[teeblack06]

does the fans have to mounted as intakes like the H50 and H70

[foodtrip2211]

great audio bad video -_-

[EMCHost]

This video seems like it was made like.. a year ago ~_~

[siwini]

and*

[siwini]

You easter married?

[swiftymc]

or did he steal my old VHS camera?
