Review on πŸ’§ Corsair Hydro X Series XD5 RGB Pump/Reservoir Combo - D5 PWM Pump - 330ml Reservoir - Individual RGB LEDs - Integrated Temperature Sensor - Black by Jean Donjuan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Combination pump/reservoir

The pump works very well and the tank light looks good. Conveniently includes everything you need to mount your tank and allows for a variety of mounting options including heatsink, fan, direct to case, etc. It also includes a clip to run the pump without powering the rest of the PC , which allows for a useful initial contour fill. They may include an extra connector or two, otherwise they'll assume you're using a temperature sensor to populate one of the connectors (I'm sure most people will use that, but something to note). It should also be noted that the pump and lighting work as a standalone device. , you'll need to invoke Corsair Commander Pro to adjust lighting and other settings, or it'll just go through the default color cycle. ual GPU and even a circuit with multiple heatsinks. Temperatures and water flow in my circuit, which includes two GPUs, a CPU, a 480 heatsink, a 140 heatsink, and a 280 heatsink, are good so far. Use clean distilled water with a few drops of PT Nuke Biocide as a coolant. I bought this to expand and upgrade my current water cooling loop and just installed it a few days ago. If there are any problems with this in the future, I will update this review.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Expensive
