Swiftech H240-X CPU Liquid Cooling Kit
Description:
he patent pending H240-X CPU liquid cooling system takes the award winning H220-X extreme thermal performance and low noise characteristics one step further thanks to a larger dual 140mm copper radiator and 140mm fans. It includes the same enthusiast grade components as the H220-X, such as the built-in MCP30 pump, and the Apogee XL waterblock. This product remains entirely focused on low to inaudible operating noise with extreme thermal performance, and it is engineered to appeal to the broadest possible spectrum of performance oriented users:
CASUAL USERS ENTHUSIAST USERS
The kit is shipped factory pre-filled, ready for plug-and-play installation, and it is maintenance free during its warranty period.
Both Swiftech's powerful MCP30 pump and high-pressure Helix fans are PWM compliant devices, allowing the H240-X to be recognized and speed-controlled by the motherboard depending on CPU temperature, just like a regular cooling fan.
As a bonus, the system also includes our PWM splitter allowing connection of up to 8 PWM devices which can then be controlled as one by the motherboard.
Finally, thanks to a clear and user-friendly pictorial installation guide, it could not be easier to install and setup!
The system can be entirely customized thanks to easily replaceable tubing and fittings.
Thanks to its powerful pump it can support additional liquid cooled components such as graphics cards and/or additional radiator(s).
The factory fittings can now be upgraded to any G1/4 compatible after-market fittings (an optional adapter is needed for the pump outlet and is available here, which allows enthusiast users to upgrade their system to 1/2" ID tubing if they wish to.
The H240-X leverages Swiftech's patent pending technology initially developed with the MCR-X20 Drive series of radiators; in this technology, the pump is fully integrated into the radiator instead of being built into the waterblock. Two major improvements were implemented compared to the original MCR-X20 series of radiators:
thanks to a revised placement of the pump and reservoir, the H240-X radiator is now the most compact dual 140mm heat exchanger on the market, thus facilitating installation of the unit with any dual radiator compatible case.
the reservoir is now transparent and LED backlit, allowing users to inspect the coolant level while enjoying the inner workings of the pump as can be seen below in a customized system featuring the smaller H220-X that we presented for CES 2014.
From virtually silent to comfortable audible noise levels
Our design objective for all Swiftech products is always to minimize the operating noise while preserving high thermal performance characteristics. At its lowest speed settings, the H240-X system is virtually inaudible. At its maximum speed, it remains within comfortable audible noise levels.
Plug-and-Play
The H240-X is probably the easiest AIO liquid cooling kit to install bar none, and is even easier to setup than many high-end air coolers.
Superior Thermal Performance
Thanks to its copper & brass dual 140mm radiator, high static pressure Helix 140mm pwm fans, more powerful DC pump than any other AIO on the market, and because it uses the Award winning Apogee™ XL waterblock, the H240-X kit delivers superior thermal performance to any comparably sized system on the market.
Expandable/Customizable
The H240-X differentiates itself from other AIO's by its ability to be fully customized, and to support additional liquid cooled components such as graphics cards, chipset, and/or additional radiator(s).
From a practical standpoint, this is possible thanks to:
The presence of a reservoir including a fill-port built into the radiator so that the system can be easily emptied or refilled by the user at will,
Enthusiast grade 5/8" OD (3/8" ID) black PVC tubing fastened to swivel fittings with an elegant clamping system that users can easily remove and safely re-install.
The factory tubing and fittings can be replaced by aftermarket G1/4 compatible offerings of your choice (an optional G1/4 adapter is needed for the pump outlet, and is available in the accessories section).
From a thermal performance standpoint, this is made possible by:
The high thermal capacity of the dual 140mm copper and brass radiator
The powerful high-pressure pump capable of driving sufficient flow to cool multiple devices in the loop.
The award winning flagship Apogee XL waterblock
Automatic speed control or fine-tuning right out of the box
Both the pump and the fans are PWM compliant devices, allowing the H240-X to be recognized and speed-controlled by the motherboard depending on CPU temperature just like any standard CPU cooler. As a bonus, the system includes a PWM splitter allowing connection of up to 8 PWM devices which can then be controlled as one by the motherboard.
Maintenance-free
As shipped from our factory and installed as directed (*), the H240-X CPU cooler requires no maintenance during its 3 year warranty period; a system refill is recommend at the end of 3 years. Under extreme ambient conditions, the system may need more frequent refills. If upgraded by the user, the interval of time between refills will depend on how users implement their customized loop.
Reliability
Both fans and pump are rated for a 60,000 MTBF (Meantime Between Failures)
