Review on Water cooling system for ID-COOLING FROSTFLOW X 240 processor, black by Adam Wojtczuk ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good and quality product, but there are flaws.

It cost me $3K to purchase it in the 20th year, which was the going rate for a decent tower at the time. I desired an attractive PC. Moderate loads, almost constant use, and 50% idle time. The cooling quality has dropped to an entirely unacceptable level during the past year! Specifically: Ryzen 5 2600 at 3.7GHz, 1.2V in the stress test, and a temperature range of 86 to 90 degrees on average. No dust, a fresh MX-4, and a temperature of 23 degrees inside. I disassembled it before the warranty expired; the result is seen in the photo. Because the blade is thicker than the space between the radiator fins, the scale on the radiator could not be removed using any chemistry and had to be scraped off with a blade. The drained water is like a puddle there, but I forgot to snap a picture of it. He cleaned it thoroughly, filled it with distillate, and rinsed it three times. 130 ml is the approximate capacity. With the aid of a handy BOLT UNDER THE LABEL on the radiator, I drove it, connected it to the connector, and topped off the liquid. Bottom line: the environment is the same, the percentage at 4GHz, 1.3V during the stress test, and the average temperature of 65 degrees with peaks of 70 degrees are all the same. I gave it a total of 4 stars because it was a nice dropsy but only after a thorough flush and maintenance. The process is simple; all you need is a screwdriver, syringe, and distillate. You may find the instructions online and ask any questions you may have.

Pros
  • - Cost (until March 2022) - Well-serviced (despite the fact that it is said that it is not) - Presentation - A quality radiator comparable to more pricier dropsies Cool braided hoses are superior to some of the pricier dropsies. Tightness and a quiet pump
Cons
  • White illumination only; virtually immediate service required after purchase (see comment);
