#754 - Cooler Master Aquagate Viva Video Review

[Julian0x]

Yo tengo este sistema de enfriamiento, y la verdad es muy bueno... pero con unos meses de uso la bomba empieza a fallar, se apaga, y por ende se calienta, por lo que la bomba se va dañando más, ahora estoy por cambiarlo por un cooler master v8 porque ya me tiene harto que se apague, también hace algo de ruido cuando sube la potencia, tal vez lo deje solo en la tarjeta de video, pero si lo quieres comprar piensa en otras opciones ya que si da problemas, especialmente si eres gamer, saludos!

in the video and maby a couple others i see you powering on the units externaly? my question is how do you do this im building a rig and dont have any extra power so i need to go external, any help woud really be appriciated. Thank you very much and i love your reviews!!

[BKsMassive]

can this be disassembled?

i wanna rob the dual70mm rad of it :)

its perfectly where an xbox 360 fan should be for internal watercooling :D

[cjgan80]

It's less noise than the S1 which is good...

[lussj66]

can i install it on my cpu and gpu:

cpu: amd am2+ 9650

gpu: nvidia 9800gt

[shigalbigal]

@lussj66 On the video card yes, but i'm not sure about the cpu... if AM2 and AM2+ sockets are the same lenght and width it will fit, if no.. i think you've guessed it

[mikylau]

@lussj66 temps????

[ihaveadogandheisfat]

actually, u can still buy it, the DUO viva, installs on cpu AND gpu at the same time

[luv2h8uall]

Dude,

You seriously need to slow down a bit. Nice review though, bought it 2 min. after I saw the video.

Thanks.

[randomassbalaclava]

where can i get extra liquid?

[latlonelyboyz]

got sold

[latlonelyboyz]

it cost around $19 (per bottle)

[adiyakuza]

is it fit for my 9800gt

[abcmaster9]

yes

[Exitachy]

is it works for my hd4870? 4870 is too hot..

[cybercb]

Don't think m8, This review i 3 year old, and i don't think, you can't buy it more.

[Exitachy]

its still at shop in my country..i was thinking to buy it but 4870 waterblock is same price as aquagate viva . i just wonder it worth it...

[cjgan80]

There is still some of the products , since people are still considering buying Air Cooled or Liquid Cooled System for their pc , and i know your comment was 4 months ago...

[abcmaster9]

yes

[erythro]

does aquagate viva will fit in to MSI R4670??

[MGlBlaze]

I can vouch for that. My TRUE copper kicks this water cooler's ass... then again that's an expensive heatsink. xP

[MGlBlaze]

My TRUE copper beats those temperatures at a warm ambient temperature with my processor overclocked. I would say this is an 'average' product as far as performance goes and 'good' if you wanna try out water-cooling but get confused by a full water-cooling system.

I wanna buy the aquagate viva for my 8800gt's to lower temps about 10 degrees celcius & maybe overclock my GPU's. Would it work for what I intend?

[DejaSOY]

never mind. I've been the video. I wasn't sure if it's a guaranteed average no matter the chasis temperature. That you get a constant 10-20 degree celcius drop in temp no matter how bad your case temps is.

[Bisciut77]

I have a Aquagate viva DUO(just another water block thrown on)on my 8800GS, and my 4000+ Athlon X2 pushing 2.7Ghz. It keeps the CPU around 34 to 40C and the GPU 44C to 55C. Thats on that Tiny rad to. I'm going to buy a 80MM and throw it in.

[hussainmushahid]

get the aquatage duo viva it will surely drop about 10 degrees.

[Glasw0lf]

NO this kits Crap, Get Air if you wanna cool 88's its cheaper and work better

[hussainmushahid]

you are right this kit sucks

[isrsan]

I am knew at all this,, are these cooling systems recomendated for every computer or for only ones which are taken to the limit??

[Speedwar88]

This is a Good kit, i have used it for 2 years, and the coolant that comes already with it lasted me 1.5 years, but if you didnt get a refill bottle with your kit, you could have a heck of a time finding the exact same coolant if you didnt want to use a different coolant for it. but this is a good kit for a cheap price.  I have only used it for my Cpu.

[sk9utube]

I don't understand why you'd need any thing much different than the coolant you buy for cars?

[sk9utube]

What else do they put in it besides diluted ethelyne glycol?

[paco91]

perfect for my xbox360

[nvtech11]

looks cool, and very silent!!, but is it reliable?

[jamieelsworth2007]

looks cheap to be honest ...

looks like the sort of thing that cocks up within 2weeks

ide prefer to get a h20 watercooling kit / compontents

[Scottishlandwarrior]

had a ton of problems with it failed after 6months,good if u need something to tide u over but i wont not buy another:(

[jayjaybwoyxx]

where can i mount it in my antec 900? can i mount it at the back at all?

[Xhris000]

it can be mount on HDD CASE

[arranmc182]

that looks like a grate kit
