Review on πŸ’§ Aveks CPU Water Cooling Block: Efficient 50mm Copper Base Waterblock for Optimal Inner Channel Cooling by Evan Beougher

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The best water block for the price.

What can I say, this processor unit is better than I thought. I have a few pros and cons so please read on. Advantages: 1) G1/4 thread to change the barb fitting at will. 2) The transparent top allows me to see if there is something wrong with the cooling (e.g. air bubbles, dirt). 3) The device is very robust and of high processing quality. Doesn't bend like my last one. 4) Everything I need came, mounting screws, hose clamps, hose fittings. Disadvantages: 1) Mounting/configuring is annoying. No backplate, just 4 screws with plastic washers. 2) The bolts have plenty of clearance on the block. It doesn't fit, but at least it works. If you are looking for a cheap and working CPU block, this is it. My Xeon x5650 never exceeds 130F (54C) (unless I'm stressing the CPU for more than 2 hours). The rubber grommets that connect the top to the bottom are very well made.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Repair
