Question 1

Can you remove the fans? i would like to add my won fans to the radiator, thanks!

Accepted Answer

The fan is easily removable. four screws and it separates from the radiator. I removed my fan so that i could mount the radiator to the front fans on my tower. Now the fan it comes with sits in the side-view window

Question 2

Will this work with the phenom II?

Accepted Answer

I haven't installed it yet on my other build, but it appears it will work for the AM3+ socket.
 Compatibility = Intel LGA 775/1150/1155/1156/1366/2011,
AMD AM2/AM2+/AM3/AM3+/FM1/FM2/FM2+.
Enjoy

Question 3

Do you have to remove the motherboard to install an AMD processor?

Accepted Answer

You don't have to, but it helps just to be safe. The last thing you want to do is bend any pins in the connections, because then both are ruined. Plus, depending on your connections, you may have to replace the brackets to be able to fit whatever cooling unit you are using

Question 4

Is this compatible with an LGA1150?

Accepted Answer

Yes.  It says it under Specifications on Newegg that it is used with the LGA 1150, so your good to go.  Good luck.

Question 5

Do you have access to the control switch from the outside of the case when the fan is installed?

Accepted Answer

It is doubtful that you will have convenient access to the control switch with the fan installed. You would have to install the fan in a pull configuration to have any chance of accessing it. Even then you would have to poke something thin through the fan grille on the back of your case to get to the switch. If you are okay with that, then yes, it is theoretically possible. I prefer to use these fans for push because they were designed for static pressure. I personally just set the fan to max speed, and I use software to set my fan speed curve.

Question 6

Does anyone have information comparing the temperatures of an i5-4670k or other, better LGA1550 socket CPUs with stock coolers and/or aftermarket coolers and ambient room temperatures?

I'm using a "Hyper 212 EVO" on my i5-4670k, and it idles at 32°C, ambient temp is 36°C, and load reaches 56°C.

Accepted Answer

Youd have to google search that because newegg doesn't allow links. But on this a test Im looking at for stock temps, this cooler performs (50.8'C) about 30'C cooler under load then the stock fan. Almost no different in temps between large cooler like H100, until you start doing high overclocks.

Question 7

Would this product work on a LGA 2011-v3 motherboard?

Accepted Answer

After reading the specs, yes. 2011 and 2011v3 have the same layout for heatsinks. You will be fine.

Question 8

How does one get the tubes, through the existing holes in my  case? Do the tubes come off, will the liquid spill? Iis there any guarantee that it will not leak?

Accepted Answer

I have not come across a case were you need to run the tubes through holes. The tubes are not meant to come off and that's why it wont leak. You mess around with unplugging them and your asking for issues and I am sure it voids the warranty. These typically install in minutes and all you'll need is a fillips screwdriver.

Question 9

Does this product come with thermal compound?

Accepted Answer

Yes

Question 10

where do you get that matching fan for a push/pull set up?

Accepted Answer

Check out NZXT website, they sell the fans.  Newegg sells them too
