Intel Motherboard Liquid Cooler - BXTS13X

works good came delivered on time

Before installing this my cpu was around 75 degrees when gaming but now runs at about 45 degrees so is excellent. It only just fit in the case though so I was lucky. There is a clearance of about 2mm between the graphics card and the radiator bit.

Veramente ben costruito e ottimi materiali. Bel radiatore solido e massiccio, in dotazione anche la pasta termica da applicare alla pompa della cpu. Chiarissime le istruzioni che comunque sono facilmente consultabili sia sul sito intel che su youtube sia in pdf che in chiarissimo video a prova di imbranato. Un dubbio che avevo era relativo alla ventola e cioe' se restasse sempre accesa la luce blu. Posso rassicurare chi come me preferisse non accenderla che e' presente un piccolo switch per disattivare il led e fare andare solo la ventola. Per il resto bei tubi solidi e massicci di ottima gomma e indiscutibile qualita' intel che si vede gia' subito anche solo maneggiando la scatola. Consigliatissimo P.s. Anche se non dichiarato sulla confezione confermo che va benissimo anche su cpu serie 1151 sia kelby lake che skylake (dato che e' derivata della serie 1150). Io comunque l' ho testato su i7 serie non k, la temperatura resta bassissima anche a pieno carico. Non me la sentirei di giurarlo ma credo che anche se con radiatore a ventola singola vada bene anche in caso di serie k pur senza fare overclock estremi

I went with this liquid cooling solution for a couple of reasons. 1) I really wanted to try out an intel brand cooler with my Intel 5820k CPU. 2) I built a Micro ATX Computer and wanted a really nice 120mm Radiator to throw in. 3) I love the blue led color in the cooler. 4) From previous reviews, I saw many get pretty decent temps. 5) I wanted to be different from everyone else! (most people go with the corsair. Purchasing this cooler ofcourse I was a bit skeptical about its performance. I thought maybe the fan would be to weak to exhaust the heat because from the pictures the fan looks like a cheap knock off. Installation is extremely simple for the 2011 socket. Seems to be very simple also for the other sockets (You can find videos from intel on how to install it on youtube). The first mistake I made when going to install it was I freaked out because I thought the screws were to short to reach the mount on the motherboard. It was horrible because I am pressing the thermal paste down and not being able to screw it in. Then I realized I did not push the screws all the way through....screwed in perfectly after that. I used the original thermal paste that it came with. It wasn't bad. Just add a bit if your not going to use it. It spreads very easy so put about a rice grain size and no more. The intel fan it comes with is actually a pretty decent powerful fan. When paired with the radiator its very quiet! My Idle Temps without overclock at this point were around 32-34. Not bad at all. I overclocked to 4.0ghz from 3.3ghz per core (6 core cpu) My idle temps were now 40-42 and stress test temps 60-64. I really wanted to bring that temperature down so I bought the Artic Silver 5 thermal paste with the cleaning solution and applied the new thermal paste. That brought my temps down only to idle at 38-40 and stress no higher than 62. So I decided to use the intel CPU fan as a top exhaust and bought a cooler master jetflo fan. The jetflo fan didn't come with long enough screws to mount the fan to the radiator but luckily my computer case came with very long radiator screws and I was able to mount the jetflo fan to the radiator. Once I made the fan change my idle temps are now at 35-37 and stress no higher than 60. The only con with the intel fan is when I moved it to be a regular exhaust fan it is really loud so I am going to buy another jetflo to be the top exhaust. I am very happy with this cooler and definitely wouldn't trade it up!

Ich war seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehr lange auf der suche nach einer Wakü. Vorher habe ich mein Micro ATX Board (1150 Sockel) mit einem Noctua NH-C14 Lüfter gekühlt. Bei einem Micro Board hat man halt wenig platz. Vorher hatte ich die Cooler Master Nepton 120XL Wasserkühlung (RL-N12X-24PK-R1) versucht einzubauen. Bin aber kläglich an der Größe des Kühlkörpers gescheitert. Dazu kam noch die Mangelnde Qualität von Cooler Master (anscheinend wird nur noch der Name bezahlt) und die starren Schläuche, wobei ich wieder bei Noctua geblieben bin. Ich wollte aber Übertackten, ich wollte mehr aus meinem Qube rausholen.Also einen Wakü von Intel dachte ich mir.Nach unzähligen Recherchen im Internet staß ich auf dieser Wakü. Her damit dachte ich mir und sofort hier bei Amazon bestellt und gleich eingebaut. Der Einbau ging sehr zügig von der Hand und die Anleitung war einfach zu verstehen. Dann der erste Start des Würfels und im Idel bei 20% Lüfter ( unhörbar) 28 Grad im Idle. Zudem ist die Pumpe auch nicht hörbar. Danach habe ich mal mit Prime95 getestet. 20 Minuten bei 4,2 Ghz (i7 4770K ) dauerlast. Ich hatte sehr kurz mal 72 Grad auf Kern 1, danach hat es sich bei allen Kernen auf 65 -68 Grad eingepegelt. Also top Kühlleistung. Unmachbar mit dem Noctua Lüfter gewesen. Klare Kaufempfehlung von mir.
