Package and its contents – Part 1: Box Contents, Reservoir/Pump, CPU Block
The SCYLLA cooler comes in quite a large box, about the size of typical 360mm AIO cooler boxes. The product is well protected, and everything arrived in perfect condition.
The package contains an ANTILA D5 EVO RBW reservoir with pump, FORKIS PRO RBW CPU block, CALORE ELITE CA240 radiator, four PETG hard tubes, two six-packs of fittings, two EOS 12 ADD fans, and two bottles of RAIAQUA-T1 coolant. There is almost everything you may need as there is no hard tube cutting tool. Cutting and bending tools are available separately.
One of the main reasons to buy the SCYLLA PRO kit is the ANTILA D5 EVO RBW reservoir with a built-in pump. The D5 pumps are usually quite expensive, and DIY kits almost always include cheaper options.
The pump has manual speed adjustment, which is not a standard option. By default, it’s set to the third level, so 3300 RPM, which is quiet and performs well in a single radiator loop.
The reservoir is made of tempered glass, with a metal frame and top made of POM. Everything seems well-designed and should last long years. On the inner side, there are LED stripes that illuminate the reservoir—a simple and effective way to install LED lighting.
The CPU block has a nickel-plated, copper base with a micro-channel structure. It’s about the best design nowadays and something similar we can find in the best CPU blocks.
In the package of the FORKIS PRO we can find AMD and Intel mounting kits. However, the review sample (even though it’s a retail version) didn’t have an LGA1700 backplate. On the other hand, the included backplate also fits, but if you want the LGA1700 one, then it’s a separate product that is very cheap.
The cold plate is well-polished. It’s nearly perfect, as you can see in the photo above.
