Kuhler H2O 620 Installation

[commencents]

who the hell still uses IDE

[soggydoggy2k6]

Thanks for this video. As people have stated, the instructions supplied are not very clear. I presume there is thermal paste pre-applied to the pump in these kits?

[JaoquinQ]

It's just a pronunciation find something better to complain about jesus .

[DarkJoney]

And it's good for AMD Phenom FX 8120?

[DarkJoney]

I will fill it after year of work?And i can install another fan on it?

[cjwagner]

You actually get better temps if you pull air in. I guess if you don't have top fans, that is a bad idea. But, if you do, go AIR IN to the case. Lower temps all around.

[HotBgizzle]

this guy is out to freaking lunch........wtf is a RAD-E-ATOR?

[HiTechLegion]

@HotBgizzle evidently you know what it is since you commented. just jump on the band wagon there, I'm sure in your part of the country there are words you pronounce that are common to your area that may seem pretty outrageous to the rest of us too.

[HotBgizzle]

@HiTechLegion yea yea..... I was taught the normal way and a radiator is a pronounced ray-dee-ay-tor......NOT RAD-E-ATOR..... you truly are a few fries short of a happy meal pal! May want to get that looked at......

[MrDucky303]

hahaha I said the same thing wtf is a rad-iator?

[DJTheSpeedfreak]

Thanks, You really helped me, the guide that came in the box was absolutely shit.

[DarkEmoE]

@Al3xstation top mounted psu cases are still more used than bottom mounted.

[shawnfarand]

..don't forget to apply thermal paste...arctic silver I guess is best.

[kinhcan03]

@shawnfarand the stock paste of this cooler does its job well

[DecMan41]

@shawnfarand Unless you're OCD about getting the absolute lowest temperatures possible, the stock paste that you get is fine. Besides, there's a ton of pastes that perform better than Arctic Silver.

[galeanoandres]

Question: What if i have my PSU on the upper part? my case is different.

[imapplhelper]

Um, is that an NZXT hades? I have the same case!

[lblitzer]

[Exsosus]

Excellent demonstration video on the installation of this model. Thanks.

[Tschnarck]

Kühler man, with Ü!

[MrJesuscow]

can you unplug the tubes and run them out of the case?

[emergencyducksnn]

@MrJesuscow did you ever find out if you could do that, or did you find a video that shows you how?

[OfTehRose]

this come with its thermal compound yes?

[dallyboy1993a]

@OfTehRose Yes it comes with high quality thermal compound pre-applied apparently

[lunatitch]

The radiator fan should pull cool air into the case, not blow it out - for optimal performance.

[12me91]

@lunatitch Antec says it should blow out on this one.

[Feedfront]

btw i have stock 2500k at 3.3Ghz

[Feedfront]

you've got a pretty big case, with the radiator and fan that came with it installed, i could no longer install another fan on the top of the case like yours in the video. Now without any case fan this thing is giving me cpu 33C idle, around 52C at 100% load, dont know if thats decent or not?

[crysisfan2]

@Feedfront that are good temps ;)

[mupp33n]

Lol so many Retardmericans here pickin' on the language.

[originalsnake18]

I believe you are running your ram in single channel....

[Cinnamonium]

tits



[anologuehedgehogs]

is this water cooling system reliable, will it last over 3 years without leakage?

[alex15885]

um, yeah but how do you put the clips into the retaining ring... me thinks you missed a few steps.

[Maney3LoL]

Rad ee 8 oar. good english<3

[cherrypopsiclesful]

is this the same as corsair h50 ?

[SkaterBBP]

@cherrypopsiclesful if it was the same, it would have the same name as the corsair h50

[MrPocketmouse]

just the one fan ?

[Jonjonita]

OMG PATA is still alive! Nice tutorial by the anyway. :)

[MrTadpole70]

Rad e ator

[Andy180084]

just wondering, I have a cheap stock case that does not support a 120mm fan, and merely has a single 80mm fan. Will the radiator work properly if I leave it dangling outside the case, pushing the hoses through a slot, but not connected to a fan?

[Nowaxhise]

@Andy180084 It's a bad idea, but yes, it will work.

[Andy180084]

@Nowaxhise i'd still leave the 80mm fan for case ventilation, but leave the radiator outside, using another slot to push the hoses through (my case has mini pci slots beneath the GPU). I have no kids around to touch it, not that a radiator has any moving parts neway.

[Nowaxhise]

@Andy180084 Well, you could try, but i suggest getting a new case. :)

[Igorsov]

This is the best antec kuhler h620 installation video.

[deano386]

iv got the same cooler, do you think its possible to mod it by replacing the hoses with clear ones and the liquid so that it reacts to the uv lights? thank you

[TheParallex]

@deano386 i dont think that would be possible seeing as its sealed and u wouldnt be able to put the water back in it 

[TheMadricks]

Very good howto.

Thanks

[TheJacobski]

Well, that was really a great guide man!

I really needed to know what you just told us viewers, 10/10!

[kenny35s]

Great Video !!! Much Appreciated !!!

[popozitoira]

it's page 8... sorry !

fucking sunday morning.

well look on google: Test • Antec Kühler H2O 620 ou 920 comptoire hardware

go to page 8... and LOOK !

[popozitoira]

@HayabusaHeadHunters i know, but he make a mistake !

look on google: Test • Antec Kühler H2O 620 ou 920 comptoire hardware

and look the picture "page 7"...

no cpu fan cooler = more space in case... ok... BUT LESS AIRFLOW near the cpu, Hotter components near cpu, because the air moove..LESS !

[popozitoira]

Not MORE airflow ! LESS airflow due to the watercooling and no cpu fan blowing/flowing...

but nice try !

[OutlawLovesNewVegas]

@popozitoira Watercooling uses airflow dumbass.

[popozitoira]

@OutlawLovesNewVegas i'am speaking "around" the cpu... (chipset and ram... and obviously transistor and other chip on board near the cpu... )...

you really want a link ? to a specialist computer website, with thermic camera picture ?!!!!!!!!

think before to speak...

[popozitoira]

@OutlawLovesNewVegas mistake last line: To > you

... (so fking tired)

[RyanPriceish]

How come you didn't use thermal paste?

[vlskate]

is this a water cooler or a regular?

[jakefrancis6666]

@vlskate Water bro, but it's all completely secured. There is no refilling needed or exchanging of water, all waterlocked in :)

[TheSuperyall]

can i have fan on the inside of the back and radiator on the outside?

[NiiCHD]

i used this but i still get 63c on full load. please help

[protegetyupe]

@NiiCHD

not only you

[yippyjp]

@NiiCHD Thats still pretty good for full load I'd say.

[NiiCHD]

@yippyjp i put a fan outside the case and i get around 56-58c now

[PyroMania61]

@NiiCHD

Did u wipe off the pre-applied TIM, and applied better, high-quality grade TIM?

Might make a little difference, who knows

[NiiCHD]

@PyroMania61 i did wipe it off, but didn't apply any more

[SmokingPictures]

thank you this helped alot, btw, i get an error message that says Cpu fan error when i boot up my computer. Do you know exactly what this means?

[hotshots4u]

Does the backplate have space so that the "needle" thing that sticks out from the back of the mobo wont bend?

[hotshots4u]

no Thermal Paste applied? Or does it no longer requires thermal paste??

[maxxikiller]

@hotshots4u Its applied from the factory.

[anders80022]

going buy one of this too moron :)

[PhotoShopChannel]

lol, whats a Rad-i-ator?

[donut182]

@PhotoShopChannel Think its american for radiator..

[MrAsmoka]

Thank you so much I would be lost without your tutorial. Thanks a lot!!!

[Graknar]

looks like hoses will get in way of memory or be pressed against them. does the block have to be faced that way or is that not important wich way its turned?

[Nitenichiryu]

@Graknar yes i noticed that too, can anyone help clarify this please, im about to buy my pc -_-

[Graknar]

@Nitenichiryu i just got and installed this cooler and yes you can have the hoses point any way you want them too, i have a bottom mounted PSU so i have the hoses pointed up and outa the way. I had enough room in my case so i have a push pull setup on the radiator and it works wonders. right off the bad dropped idle temps 10 deg C and 100% usage temps 20 deg C (with just one fan, with 2 it dropped it another 3 deg C off the new temps) phenom 2 X4 3.2GHz (yes not overclocked im lazy :P  )

[asiq1987]

can you connect the cooler to a Lamptron Fan Controller exspet connecting it to the mother board ?

[FAV0705]

where is your psu? i think your psu is below. My psu above. it still fits in my case?

[169Phoenix]

@FAV0705 yeah there's no different

[FAV0705]

@169Phoenix ok thank you :)

[Poockiy]

is there already liquid inside?

[hollywoodspen]

@Poockiy yes It's pre-filled



[169Phoenix]

Do u have any problem with the cooler making noise? pls reply

[hulusi2008]

what kind of mounting screw is used to affix the fan to the radiator, I want to do push and pull, but don't know what kind of screws to get (not the regular fan mounting screws) Thanks :)

[Fissz01]

is needed a thermal paste or not ?

[FastFeet]

Thanks for the Video! The included User Manual and install instructions are very sparse. Thanks again!

[Tayskasi]

Installed Kuhler 620, but for some reason the fan power does not work. There are two wires coming from the pump. I have connected other to CPU FAN power slot and other to the fan. For some reason the fan does not spin ... Not quite sure does the pump either work. Whole radiator heats up nicely, but for some reason pump is not providing power to other fan ... piece of shit

[peter5331]

@therRougueMark you should clean and reapply the TIM.properly. you may have to get some the pre-applied thermal paste I believe is ShinEtsu X23-7868-2D.

[TheRogueMonk]

dang i had the cooler open for a while with the paste .. and i put tit on ... did i ruine my cpu now?

does the paste get useless afterbeing subject to air for a while?

[TheRogueMonk]

you sound like indiana jones

[TheRogueMonk]

@TheRogueMonk your voice i mean

[TheRogueMonk]

no thermal paste?

[SMG59]

Can you use your own tubings on this so if i wanted to mount the radiator on the back of the case could i buy longer pipe to replace the older one?

[GuttahMastah]

I tried installing the Kuhler 920, but whenever I turn my pc on it shuts on and off with all green yellow and red lights on the motherboard.

Any help would be nice thanks

[MegaGiveAways]

Does this support am3+ ? because i know that the holes for AM3+ form more of a rectangular formation other then the normal square formation, Because im on a Sabertooth 990 FX AM3+, Please reply!

[ATLKYDD404]

@MegaGiveAways Yes, it does support AM3+.

[RamoneTalarico]

what swatch is that?

oh on a side note, i would recommend putting the fan on the outside and using a shroud to prevent the fan from suffocating creating double the airflow also allowing even more space inside the case.

[TRAUMAeagle]

Question, Is it a nice cooler? and will it work with a 1366?

[owentheomen]

I just bought this CPU cooler used the stock thermal paste idk if its good put it down on 1155 esandybridge CPU 6400 unlocked cores not defiantly sure if that is CPU but its sitting on new big big bang msi motherboard and it idled at 85 to 90 F when gaming crisis 2 goes to 110 F with OS boot overclocking I think u should replace stock paste will make reply video and show what I'm talking about in more detail

[owentheomen]

just was watching this and was thinking what about silver shit u put on cpu to keep it cold you never put it down

[StrykerMikado]

@owentheomen I believe at around 2:35 you can see the paste on there. But it is best to search. Usually it is needed. It may infact come with paste like most fans do already. Either way, its best to buy some artic silver cause it is better then most stock paste.

[octavio2895]

can you install the radiator on the top vent?

[BazM38]

hi im planning on building my first pc and i dont really know everything there is to know

is the liquid already in the cooler if so do u just have to install it cheers

[binovski5]

@Frischkaesegurke MMM I did not know that? I will stick with nh-d14.

[binovski5]

Dont know about this one it looks kind of cheaply made, A rip off from corsairs H series but it probably performs good?

[ngough]

@binovski5 This is Asestek's 3rd generation all in one cpu water coolers. Just read up on the reviews. The H2O's are made by the same guys who made Corsair 1st 2nd gen models. I've never had issues with any Antec products and their customer service imho is fantastic as well.

[binovski5]

@ngough NA! dude i will stick with my NH-D14! Its probably great but its not for me.

[ngough]

@binovski5 no worries I am usually a copper fin tower dude myself (a big thermalright fan), was considering getting another tower (was considering NH-D14 and Megahelms) but decided not to this time, the pricing is all weird where I live..and since I just had such a great experience with Antec (they just sent me free cables for my modular power supply) support, I figured they deserve my loyalty :)

[binovski5]

@ngough I had a H70 and i was not very happy with its performance so i got the NH-D14 + I got it for $70.00 because the box was open!

[TRAUMAeagle]

@ngough Gawd, I hate thermaltake

[ngough]

@TRAUMAeagle yeah oops I mean thermalright, totally different companies :) Thermalright kicks the crap out of most companies with their heatsinks, only recently have real competitors stepped up :)

[TRAUMAeagle]

@ngough kk thermal take sucks donkey balls, I have the... spirit case? anyways within 3 days both 320mm fans broke, I tried to replace the case but they said that because of the scratches it may have been from me.

[Robbaz]

Wow it's even easy with the graphic card in the way.

[TheDarkHighlander]

i heard reviews from some customers stating that the pins or clips break easily cause they are plastic, can you confirm?

[gldndragon77]

@TheDarkHighlander I can confirm, I just installed it today and one green retaining ring screwhole started breaking as I was screwing it in perhaps a bit too hard. This did not affect performance tho, I think it's great so far. I was running 29 degrees+ prior to install, after 15 degrees. after overclocking my 3.2 hz to 3.8 ghz it's staying at around 26 degrees, pretty nice.

also, I used the double fan solution, one on either side of the radiator.

[skitterrusty]

Learn to pronounce radiator.

[gldndragon77]

@skitterrusty pronunciation is a regional thing. some places pronounce radiator RAY-dee-ay-tor, others pronounce it RAH-dee-ay-tor. In New York some people just call it a rad, pronouncing it like Rad in radical, not rad like raid

[zrad522]

Great review. Are you using the NZXT Hades? If so does the side fan fit with the radiator in place?

[GTBenergy]

not very good idea to wear anything that can store static electricity aka. watch while doin stuff like that, apart from that nice vid

[UltraSquirrel]

How will it work if the fan attached to the Kühler is blowing air into the case instead of out of the case? The thing is that I'm currently in the middle of building my own case and I'm getting myself one of these to keep my CPU cool, since my current air cooler is too big to fit in my new case. And to solve the cooling problem since the chassi is 20cm high, 35 wide and 27 deep I will simply put a 200mm fan on the chassi roof, and that means I have nothing pushing air into the case.

[SylentCommando]

nice review and setup of the antec Kukler. I couldnt find many videos on you tube on this cooler. I was thinking of this or the h70, dont really like corsair products though. So i ended up picking oh the kuhler H20 620 for 69.99 at my local computer store here in town. Just wondering if you are satistfied with its cooling performance. Also how would you go about installing another fan? Could you use a Y splitter to connect 2 fans or dont you think it would be enough power? for 2 fans.

[rlb9682]

Did you have to remove the motherboard back plate prior to installing the Khuler?

[gng13]

@T16skyhopp - Using the stock fan with a different fan control is possible but not recommended. The Kuhler H2O 620 incorporates its own fan control to keep the correct amount of air going through the radiator for optimal performance and silence.

[T16skyhopp]

Could I place the radiator on top of the exhaust fan already in my antec 1200 case? I like having the stock case fan control on the exhaust fan that is already there. Looking forward to picking this up next time I have the cash.

[gng13]

@taltigolt - You can mount it any way you like. When I did this video, I was looking to show the ease, as well as keep the case uncluttered. The direction I mounted the cooling block/pump was the best for demonstration purposes.

[taltigolt]

can the cooler be turned with it's text showing the right way and are the tubes bendable to keep them out of the way

[MicroTerminator]

If building the pc do you recommend to fist install the cooler onto the mobo then onto the case?

[HiTechLegion]

@MicroTerminator It depends on your case,if you have a cutout then install the motherboard first.

[TRAUMAeagle]

@HiTechLegion You said you used some adhesive pads but it other videos I saw it just popped in or snapped in, is that true?

[peter5331]

HiTech Legion videos are always well presented and the Kuhler H20 620 sure looks like a winner.
