System Composition

     No, this part isn't normally supposed to be taken apart, but since the front was already off I took the liberty of removing the top, too. The three main ingredients of the water cooling system are labeled in the picture. The heater core style Radiator measures 80mm x 114mm in total surface area. The coolant reservoir makes up the left side of the chassis. The filler cap will normally protrude through the top of the coolers enclosure, but being on top will require the unit to be removed from an internal installation to refill coolant levels should it ever drop. The pump is supplied power by way of a special "Y" cord that will get fitted to your PC's main power cord, meaning the pump is needs 120V volts which is very different from most water coolers.

     Here is a close up of the water block. The acrylic clear top has 3/8" outer diameter brass fittings. The top is also molded and drilled with holes that will match the included adapter base plates. The CPU mating surface is well machined, highly polished and protected during shipment by plastic bubble wrap and a clear removable film, complete with a warning note to remove the film prior to installation.
