Installation
Since it’s a product review and not an installation guide, we won’t describe how to build your own cooling. It’s also a DIY kit that can be modified and adjusted depending on the user’s needs. However, we present some examples of how to install components and our final effect of the PC build. The whole build will be presented in a separate article soon.
For sure the most challenging is hard tube bending, so I recommend using 90° fittings and cutting tubes as long as you need. The kit includes six fittings of each type, while in our build, I had to use twelve 90° fittings, so one additional box. Fittings are sold in six-packs, and right now, there is no option to buy them separately. On the bright side, their price is significantly lower than that of competitive fittings.
Raijintek delivers the basic installation manual, but the product is designed for enthusiasts, so you need some knowledge to make it right.
The Final Build
The idea was to have easy access to all components inside the PC and high airflow. In the build was used only components available in stores without additional modding. Of course, we could modify everything, cut and paint, but we didn’t want to do that. Even though putting it all together took some time, then it’s a fairly easy build. It still required some planning and unexpected changes.
Above are red and green options, and below is full RGB.
As I mentioned before, the whole build with more photos will be presented in a separate article. The build will be kept in a black-gold theme which I skipped in this article.
On the next page of this review, we will take a closer look at the performance.
