The fin-density measuring hint again: take a macro photo with a mm ruler next to the fins, then zoom in to see how many fins you can count per mm or per cm, there's your fin density :) This way you can actually estimate pretty accurately the exact thickness of the fins as well as the space between them

If this were EK's second gen I may have felt different considering their cold plate and impeller designs. I didn't care for the VRM fan design on the Arctic's and got the 150i for about the same price. It would be nice to see it benched against the other two and if there have been any design updates since these platinums.

7:53 the cold plate on the Asetek pump was attached with pozidriv screws and you were unscrewing them with a Phillips head screwdriver. They're not (supposed to be) interchangeable, but many people do just that. If the screw doesn't need to be torqued a lot you can usually get away with it, but not when the necessary torque is high, and often it ends up with the screw head or the screwdriver head (whichever of the two is made of softer steel) being stripped.

I bought one of the CoolIt Domino ALC's when they first came out. The thing I liked the most was that their head office (at the time) was based here in Calgary (Canada), so I went ahead and bought one to see if it cool an AMD Phenom better than an air cooler - not too choices at the time, 2007 - and it worked like a charm. What a novel idea I thought (I hadn't even heard of custom water cooling at that point); and it was a novel thought for all of 6 months tops, when one morning I awoke to the sound of coolant spraying all through my chassis. I was lucky at the time because they didn't have a disclaimer about leaks or "At Your Own Risk" or anything like that - so their support team worked hard to try and repair the damage the coolant had done to the motherboard/ CPU and GPU; alas, only the motherboard survived in the end. They kept their promise though that if the components died after them washing the parts, they would replace the component . So I got a new GPU :-) I really have to thank Coolit for opening my eyes to the world of custom loops; it was mainly due to the defective cooler that I decided to build a custom loop (and to see what all the hype was about), I've never looked at another closed loop since. Thanks Steve for the breakdown, I was curious if Coolit Systems was still around...and they are (seems they only make commercial and OEM systems now).

Once opened i found quite a lot of debris coming from the radiator stuck in the fins of the coldplate preventing a good flow... it was quite gross to be honest... i cleaned all the coldplate with a thootbrush and the pump assembly. Also i rinsed very well the radiator by flowing inside clean distilled water and came out a lot of dirt and brownish water... After that i refilled it with clean distilled water + a few drops of biocide and now it works like a charm and it's a lot less noisy... probably becasue the pump was dirt and the coldplate almoast clogged I am sure i had permeation because now has less air inside, when i shake the rad i hear less water "wobble" in the top than before ...means less empty space inside

@Gamers Nexus: If you have a pump with any kind of impeller assembly, the intake is always going to be in the center of that. Because this way you utilize the centrifugal force to propel the water outwards. On gear pumps, vein pumps, piston pumps and other types this is not so easy to determine (sometimes these can even work in both directions). But pumps for watercooling are mostly simple centrifugal pumps.

A centrifugal pump is different from an impeller bladed pump. Asetek specifically said they sued over the impeller design with Cooler Master. CoolIt owns the patent to centrifugal pumps which is really a thumb in the eye to Asetek. Funny part is, the centrifugal system actually has better pressures than the impeller system because it uses more a vacuum effect to pull liquid rather than push it. Over time the vacuum driven centrifugal force will mean a more sustainable pump because even if liquid does evaporate out of the lines, any possible air in the loop won't create a dead spot.

The key is to deal with laminar flow or water sticking to surface of heat transfer surface, but not create to much resistance due to turbulence and friction. Mixing might be as effective as micro-fins, since conductivity of water and copper are a close match. Of course micro-fins gives the whole volume equal laminar flow but has high frictional resistance. For higher pressure cooling, a solid pencil steam hitting a flat surface would be more effective but costly for pumping energy.
@mrthesquid5 жыл бұрын
Those roll pins are holding the fittings into the pump housing. The two on one side and one on the other coincide with the inlet and outlet lines and the one goes with the fill port, which would explain why you couldn't pull the fill port out. Doesn't look like there is an easy way to pull them out, small needle nose pliers may be the best bet.

Anyone removing the cold plate from as Asetek cooler - especially one that’s a few years old now - should buy a set of replacement screws as there’s every chance the originals will be *tight* and all to ready to have their heads chewed up if you slip. A snug-fitting pozidrive screwdriver is essential, and go slow and steady while applying firm pressure. Once the old screws are out they can replaced with a better grade. You’ll need countersunk self-tapping 8mm x 2mm (B) blunt type screws with a 4mm head.
