Post your latest Purchase

[d3p]

Thanks all. Now i have to find a bakra for my H50....

For 3.5k, you could have gotten a brand new Venomous X instead of a second hand. Anyway, congrats. Don't forget to post pics once you get it

Thanks, but what do you mean by second hand ???

For me "If its used for few days & about to get sold" - is called as second hand.

But if the cooler packet is open & no one has ever used it or connected in the mobo, then its not a second hand or used stuff.

BTW i don't who sells Venomous X for 3.5k with shipping. I don't mind if you provide me some links.

AFAIK theitwares has few stock, but they are selling @ 3.75k + Shipping ~ 4k

Lynx-india also got few on board & same price 4k+ tax +shipping = 4.5k.

 

[asingh]

Lynx india is down, i thought i will order a pair of Scythe Kage Ultra 120mm 3000RPM fans, but hopefully the Site is down, from last couple of days.

Probably i will check the availability of Delta 120mm 3000RPM fans locally otherwise will purchase the Thermalright Silent X 120mm Fans from ithwares.

i will decide soon after certain reviews or studies.

Do not use the 3000RPM fans as 'intake'. Unless you are in an integral A/C environ. where there is less dust. They suck in too much guck, and mess up their own fins, and coat the innards of the cabinet with dust.

They work best for exhaust. I made the mistake of putting it as side intake. Now I keep it toned down to 2000RPM via a controller. Quite a waste of a high RMP fan.

No i don't have A/C in my room. Currently i have a Corsair 1800RPM fan which came with H50 & another 1600RPM CM without led fan. Planning to use them for few day & gonna check the difference.

I thought since someone was selling it on TDF, it must be second hand or why else would he sell it? My bad if it isnt.

Anyway don't you think its preferable to buy a new one for extra 200-400 bucks? Because you never know what kind of defect a used product might have especially if you can't examine it personally before purchase.

 

[d3p]

Agree with you, but what defect you can expect from a Mechanical Steel Plates of cooler.

If there's any manufacturing defect, then you can expect such from anywhere from local stores to online. All is based on your luck.

I have warranty card & other stuff, its not like i'm protecting the seller, but can't hide the fact even.

Lets wait to see, whats there for me in that box.

 

[sjoardar]

The earlier U12 came with one fan free. afaik.


No, its correct, elementary physics

My 2-yr old socket 775 / 1366 edition has two fans , but the package didn't include that cool-looking badge (I checked again).

Thanks



Pics coming up soon



Thanks bro!



Thanks!
OC not quite now...waiting for 2600K and P8Z68V PRO

There you go again! That badge I mean!!

Even the NT-H1 tube looks so colourful, mine is drab B&W!!

I know, I know, I am being childish! What can I do? I am so jealous!

Of course, mine had adapters for sockets 775 and 1366 CPUs. No socket 1156 existed then.

Other than the above, mine looks identical. However, the heat-pipes must be welded, not soldered as mentioned by you.

Performance is great as expected.

He can send the h50 for rma if it has developed some defects.

Anyway enjoy the walk through....

I received the package yesterday night & finally i got these steel monster in my hands....

*i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k575/d3p5kor/SAM_0424.jpg

This Cooler doesn't come preinstalled like Corsair H50, but the package was small when compared to H50. In other words, its a DIY package.....

*i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k575/d3p5kor/SAM_0426.jpg

This cooler doesn't include any fans which is bit weird for me, otherwise worth of 3.5k.

*i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k575/d3p5kor/SAM_0431.jpg

The while package includes the below item & user need to follow the manual instruction to complete the whole assembly..

1). Socket which is compatible with LGA1366, 1156, 775.

*i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k575/d3p5kor/SAM_0440.jpg

Sadly no support for AMD, means user need to buy separate socket for AMD.

AFAIK, the latest revision includes LGA1155 for sandybridge support.

2). Mounting Bracket & backplate.

*i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k575/d3p5kor/SAM_0435-1.jpg

3). 2 Set of fan clips for mounting 2 x 120mm fans as push pull configuration.

4). Mini spanner to adjust the Pressure by increasing - decreasing the height.

5). 2 Sets of anti-vibration pads, to neglect vibration & noise.

6). 2gm of Chill Factor II TIM & a nice packaging box with shiny Venomous X written on it.

Hang on for more assembly photos straight from my cabinet......

*After looking at the outer cover, i can say it was a used cooler, but i can't say it was an used piece after looking at the above pics.

 

[Skud]

Buddy, congrats again. This looks pretty awesome to me!!! One question, no fans included?

Nice pics, btw. And mention the weight.
