External Radiator
This Radiator is an external radiator. It almost certainly cannot be mounted in any traditional case. While it does provide the ability to handle a larger heat load and move it away from your system, it brings added complexity. |
|
Small Form Factor
This Radiator is suitable for many Small Form Factor (SFF) builds. It is equal or less than 21mm thick, and uses two or less 120mm fans. As compatibility varies widely in SFF cases, please double check the dimensions. This is provided as a general guideline only. |
|
Drain Port
This Radiator provides one or more drain ports. This allows for easier drainage when emptying the system, and can often be used for bleeding air when filling the system. |
|
X-Flow
This is a Crossflow (X-Flow) Radiator. These often have minor performance losses, but allow much greater flexibility in loop planning. They are generally not used unless you have a very specific look or run you need to achieve. |
|
RGB
This radiator has RGB lighting. The implementation varies by manufacturer, and may not be compatible with all RGB control solutions. Double check with the manufacturer's listing if you require a specific implementation. |
|
Integrated Pump
This radiator has an integrated pump. Chinese units often use knock-off DDC pumps, which are prone to early failure, so it is recommended to replace with a genuine DDC. |
|
Integrated Reservoir
This radiator has an integrated reservoir. This is almost always found in conjunction with an integrated pump. |
|
Modular
This radiator is modular. It can be taken apart for modding, or for swapping parts. Each manufacturer making modular radiators do so in a different way, and components are not compatible with other brands, or product lines unless specified by the manufacturer. |
