Pros: - Radiator fits perfectly in EVGA Hadron Hydra case
- Cooling block fits to motherboard well

Cons: - Terrible tubing fittings. Not enough threads to connect to base before hose compression starts. It took hand tools, lots of strength, and many blisters from pressing and twisting compression fittings to get the tubing sealed and connected.
- Tubing fittings don't swivel. You will have to position the tubing perfectly before tightening or the tubing will twist and kink.
- No instructions on filling the cooling system. That step is completely missing from the instructions. It turns out that you should fill it with the case on its side, and you will need to run the pump and refill numerous times to get the air out of the system. The pump filler is positioned below the highest point in the system, requiring the case to be propped up on an angle and repeatedly burped.

Other Thoughts: I cannot recommend this product. It has been a large pain to install because of poor fittings.

Pros: -Well Packaged
-CPU block is nicely designed

Cons: -Compression fittings incredibly difficult to tighten
-Tubing fits on to the barb but is the compression ring is nearly impossible to tighten

Other Thoughts: I was skeptical after reading the reviews on here but decided to bite the bullet and immediately I regret it. For the price you'd think everything would work flawlessly. I'm sorely disappointed in EVGA.

i did build like countless computers from metal and acrylic panels , never been so ****** with a product . please do buy your own kit
evga you suck !!! no screwdriver and the wrench was all bendy same as your good for nothing tubes

to finish thermalpaste was all over the place i wich i can give you one star !!!

Pros: The radiator in this kit is a high flow radiator that looks to be of excellent construction. Packaging was also very well done, with no dings or scratches. Reservoir and pump work as advertised, and are very capable of powering this setup as it is, or with a GPU in the water loop as well. Angled fittings seem well made, and have not given me any issues. *CPU block cools very well. (See cons) Keeps the entire system well within temperature limits.

Cons: The supplied tubing kinks very easily compared to higher quality tubing, and required use of the anti kink coil provided were very detracting to the look of the system in my opinion. I read some horror stories regarding the supplied compression fittings. I replaced the tubing and comp. fittings and the setup came out beautifully with no kink coil. The CPU block was fairly easy to install, but you'll want to spend some time getting it centered as you tighten the bolts. I actually had a clearance issue with my RAM due to the bracket, but was able to fit it after adjusting the waterblock.I added a GPU to the loop as the directions said it would be fine, and it was for the most part. The GPU that I used is an EVGA GTX890 Hydro, and the water blocks ports actually don't clear the HDD cage without using a 45 degree fitting. Even then it's pushed fairly tight against it. The supplied fans do a good job, but get very loud when you need extra cooling.

Other Thoughts: I'd like to note that if you plan on adding a powerful liquid cooled GPU, you will notice an incredible amount of heat being pushed out of the top of the case. Playing games at 4k I actually cannot touch the exposed pipes in the rear of the case, but this just shows the amount of heat that this setup is capable of extracting. Overall good job on this EVGA.

Pros: Good kit for first-timers. Included elbows help a lot. Plenty of tubing. On elbows, metal-to-metal threads catch easily and O-rings seal up nicely with included wrench.

Cons: These fittings are difficult. My fingers still haven't recovered. However, I'm pretty confident there will be no leaks...ever. The pump when secured to my case is a little loud and the pump power lead (3 pin fan) is a little short, but I don't blame the manufacture or newegg since I'm using it in a case it wasn't necessarily intended for.

Other Thoughts: I ended up putting this in a different case than what it was "intended" for, but it all worked out. The included anti-kink spring is a must. After all is said and done, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. My only suggestions are to include some sort of visual flow indicator (or better, a visual with a sensor to hook to 3/4 pin fan lead on MB) and maybe an air bleed/drain/fill valve to keep water away from internals.

Pros: Does a good job working with the matching ITX case. Haven't tested it's thermal performance yet (see other). Kit includes a fair amount of extra cooling line if you make a mistake on the install or want to add other water blocks.

Cons: While I appreciate water fittings have to be tight so there are no leaks, these fittings can be VERY difficult to get the line into. You also must use the line that comes it the kits or find something exactly the same. I have some very good line from a previous custom water build and the wall thickness of the line was just big enough it wouldn't go on the fittings. You get enough line in the kit but if you are thinking of using colored line from a third party be prepared for it to not fit.

Other Thoughts: I've had various water cooling systems. Some kits. some custom build. The "Hydro" setup with the case and cooling kit is really very well done for going into an ITX form factor. Things are a little tight here and there but that should be expected given the size of the case.
My only complain is that while test running the system I found it had a leak. I wasn't in a hurry to use this computer so I left it in my garage for about a week with the pump running. I noticed the fluid level in the reservoir had gone down. I didn't notice any obvious water in the case but there was dried up coolant on the bench under the computer. Best I can tell there is a leak in the gasket or o-ring that seals between the pump and the reservoir. Which means I pretty much have to disassemble the entire unit.
Since I took my time on the build I am passed being able to return it so I'm off to find out how easy the EVGA RMA system is. I know products can be defective on occasion, just this time it's going to cost me hours to fully R & R the system.

Pros: All in one kit for first time liquid cooling, but more than just a plug and play for those who like to tinker.

Cons: Actually raised my CPU temp about 20 degrees C instead of lowering after all was said and done. I've been building my own machines for 20 years. I know I've got the thermal properly applied. I'm going to request RMA. My fingers are KILLING me after installation with compression caps. Now I have to figure how to drain and take it all apart. My poor fingers.

Other Thoughts: This is my first venture into liquid cooling, but coolant is flowing, coming in hot as all get out, seems cool on the return, but CPU temp is above danger levels, about 80C. I was closer to 60C with fins and fans.

Pros: looks good and of high quality

Cons: instructions were vague but not an issue for me.

Pros: Complete kit for the Hadron Hydro case. Had enough hardware to also loop in the GPU. I have been running initial test all day and no leaks.

Cons: I tried every combination of fittings to go from the radiator to the inlet on the reservoir without using the kink coil, but couldn't make it work without it. Not docking an egg since they do include it for that purpose, but would have liked to not have to use it for a cleaner look.

Other Thoughts: The instructions are vague, but its pretty straight forward. I was also able to include my GPU into the loop so that is a big plus. I would recommend just using distilled water instead of the included coolant. I added a KillCoil and some red food coloring, and this kit, especially the CPU block look astonishing in the Hadron Hydro case.

My thumbs hurt.

Pros: Fits into my Corsair Carbide Series 500R case. More then enough hose in case you mess up on a linkage.
AMD FX-6300 - I ran Prime95 with stock heatsink and fan Averaged 60°C with a high of 69°C. After Installing the Watercooling kit I got an average of 40°C and a high of 42°C.
The fittings and connectors worked great. The Compression fittings were a little hard to get the threads to bite, but I was still able to get them threaded.

Cons: Instructions are pretty terrible, I read through it multiple times and there were many holes in the installation process. There are plenty of videos on youtube that helped me out a ton.
Another issue I ran into is if you are buying this for another case then the Hadron Hydro, don't forget to pick up a few fans. I didn't take an egg off for this cause it is meant for the Hadron which has the necessary fans

Other Thoughts: This is my first experience with water cooling, but overall I think this is a great starter kit to upgrade parts later on.
