Suspended Spiral Pump Head Design

The pump head uses a suspended spiral design. This geometry improves flow dynamics. It aids heat dissipation from the CPU die. The result is stable temperatures under load. This design also creates unique lighting angles.

High-Performance Cooling Pump

The integrated pump runs at 2800 RPM. It delivers a flow rate of 1300 mL/min. Testing was performed on an AMD Ryzen 5600X. This data supports its thermal capacity. However, you should verify fit for your specific CPU socket.

Massive Copper Base Plate

A solid copper base plate sits on the processor. It maximises contact area for heat transfer. This ensures efficient cooling across all loads. The plate is pre-applied with thermal paste. So, you can install the cooler immediately.

EPDM High-Density Tubing

The tubing uses EPDM high-density material. This construction is very durable. It minimises liquid loss over time. The tubes also resist kinking during routing. This helps maintain consistent flow rates.

Antec Fusion PWM ARGB Fans

The kit includes three 120mm PWM fans. These fans feature a multilateral frame. They house 16 LEDs for smooth lighting. Airflow reaches 57.93 CFM max. Noise remains low at 31.24 dB(A) max.

Motherboard Sync and Control

An ARGB controller is included. It works with your motherboard software. You can customise each LED individually. Connect the 3-pin LED cable for sync. Long press the mode button for 3 seconds to switch control.
