Let’s move on to the CPU block next. I had this one in hand for the first time and immediately notice a heavy weight, to be exact, the block weighs a whopping 720g without Intel or AMD mounting frames. The acrylic used is very thick and looks well made, the design is also very appealing. On the block front, the Raijintek logo is marked on a brushed aluminum plate, as well as the flow direction, so that there is no confusion for inlet and outlet. Last but not least, there’s RGB for the Illuminati, if you need it.
What is practical is the possibility to use the block for AMD as well as Intel systems. So if we ever want to change our system (from Intel to AMD or vice versa), we don’t have to buy a new block again, but just change the mounting frame. This saves a lot of money, because if you look at the prices of individual manufacturers, what such a specialized CPU block can cost, then the offered here from Raijintek is rather customer-friendly oriented and saves the wallet.
Now let’s look inside the block Here Raijintek has gone for a lot of cooling surface area and the cooling fins are finely crafted, giving us a large cooling surface area to dissipate the temperatures of the CPU to the liquid. The jetplate is practical and can be easily removed should one of the channels become clogged. Unfortunately, the manufacturer did not comment on the residual floor thickness.
The rule here is: the finer the fins, the higher the cooling surface, the better the cooling properties. As for the temperatures, more a little later, as I did measure the block.
Again, I have the manufacturer’s picture and specs:
