DIYhz Water Cooling Computer Radiator, 12 Pipe Aluminum Heat Exchanger Liquid Cooling Radiator Heat Sink 120mm with Fan for CPU PC Laser Water Cool System DC12V Black

I have held off on buying a budget PC radiator for a while. I have heard all sorts of stories about radiators coming in brand new with leaks, etc. To be honest this terrified me. Who the heck is building radiators that leak brand new!? If you manufacture these things at all they should not leak new as they are simple devices. Anyway I am happy to say this one didn't leak and the item looks exactly as advertised in the image. The paint is blemish free and the radiator itself is well constructed with no damaged fins or other manufacturing anomalies. Also there are screw mounting holes for 120mm fans that match spec perfectly, for fans that follow spec that is. As the manufacturer warns don't screw in too deep otherwise you will puncture the radiator. I kept it to a few mm. NB: The system described is not a typical PC cooling setup (what this radiator is marketed for) and can result in electrocution and death if done by persons not aware of the risks who do not take the proper precautions. I am outlining testing conditions that are generally much more extreme than a user would typical put this unit through for information purposes only. I am using this in a low pressure, high volume loop system...the driving pump is pushing 800 GPH of tap water through this radiator while running into a recycling reservoir where processing on it occurs. I am running through 20ft of flexible hose which has accidentally partially kinked on the return a few times driving up internal radiator pressure slightly. I have run it for hours on end and in short bursts for a couple of minutes. All operations have been conducted at temperatures ranging from around 35.6 F (2 C) to 104 F (40 C) with the bulk of operations occurring around ~80 F (27C). The radiator is still holding strong after about 2 weeks of this. Water sits idle in it for hours at a time when the pump isn't running so this is also my corrosion test. My application has water partially draining from the radiator sometimes leaving air voids. These voids are then driven out by the pressure in the pump when it is activated. This sort of light "bubbling" can definitely cause a badly constructed radiator to break loose a badly folded pipe seam, etc. so you could say I have definitely stress tested this radiator! If it is constructed the way it is advertised it should last a long time. I am not exceeding manufacturer specifications. Only time will tell on the longevity of the radiator and I will update in the future. However as of now after 2 weeks of full use I can safely say I would buy this radiator in a heartbeat again. It is exactly what I envisaged when I purchased it, a quality radiator for a good price. Copper cores may be nice but copper core prices aren't (most are seriously over priced). With my flow volumes I am using aggressive water cooling more than simple heat convection so this is exactly what I was looking for. Just because a product is targeted to a hobby market than doesn't mind wasting a lot of dollars doesn't mean a company like this can't come in there with a budget solution and produce a good product at a FAIR price. Modern radiator technology is almost two centuries old. If the Chinese couldn't mass produce this item at this price and still make a fair profit I would be very surprised.

As described

Muyyyyyy buenos para computadoras viejas que usan ventiladores de 80mm para los que quieren armar refrigeración liquidas en PC retro quedan muy bien

Great product sent it back would not work for the application for my use. Had to purchase a different model for my project nothing wrong with the product excellent quality well built recommended for anyone that needs this type of radiator.

Great functionality, perfect size, went right in the spot I had planned for it on the front of my case over a fan, no leaks whatsoever, build quality is great, painted in a nice satin black goes with the rest of my interior of my computer.
