Thank you for making this video! I'm planning to add an EK-XTOP Revo Dual D5 pump res to my Eisbaer Aurora 420. Can you give me tips on how to remove the tubes? The Auroras no longer have tubes that have coils in them. It's just a smooth rubber coated fitting.
Hi, thanks. Wow, that a lot of pump with dual D5's, that DC-LT won't be doing much at that point. If I'd be planning something like that I'd probably internally disconnect the DC-LT and remove the impeller on the pump to open up that flow path. But I guess it doesn''t matter with two D5's either^^ Haven't had an Aurora in hand yet, but from what I can tell those are still normal fittings with a more sleek design. The outer clamp rings even have flat spots on them to possibly use a wrench, so those should funktion just the same as all other usual soft tube fittings. Glad to hear the vid is usefull to people and thanks for watching. Have a happy new year
@@PXLgenerator Thanks! I just plan to use the dual pump for redundancy. I find the Eisbaer Aurora not enough to cool my 10900k. It reaches 90C in Prime95 small ffts with avx. That's just stock 10900K. Overclocking it will trigger thermal throttling Probably because of the flowrate. So a dual pump might solve my problem.
Hi, thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave a comment. I was more or less wondering the same thing. I'm planing on doing a follow up, wife pc upgrade, got a 280 rad and a 1070ftw with a alphacool gpx block on it. I'll probably do some flow tests outside of the case, got more rads laying around, so I could just hook up more and see when stops flowing. Still figuring out this YT stuff and I'm terribly inefficient so it could take a while, sorry if I can't help you out in a timely manner relevant to you. Thanks for the good question, take care
Hi, I didn't. But I got it out of the system it was in atm anyways so I'm opening it up for you right now. Check my Twitter and Insta, I'll post it on there with some pictures. You prob mean the square it covers? Why you asking? Kind of curious.
@@PXLgenerator Thank you. I have the exact same Eisbaer and I'm getting a bit annoyed at the thermal performance of it with my 5900x. I'm thinking this is happening due to two things, pump flow rate and size/density of the fin stack/location of it. I'm considering to switch over to the Barrow cpu/pump/res where the fin stack covers almost the entire IHS (around 3,5 mm's on each side have no covering of the IHS). Alternatively, I'm considering to swap out for a full custom loop with soft tubing and a bunch of quick disconnects for ease of maintenance.

Ah ok, hope the extra flow helps out
Did you ever add a pump?
@@Voyex Hi! I did. But eventually went to the Custom Loop route and added more radiators.
Thanks for the video. Will the Eisbaer unit be strong enough to cool the CPU, GPU and flow through a 420mm radiator?

Hi, did you measure the size of the fin stack on the coldplate?
Hi, I didn't. But I got it out of the system it was in atm anyways so I'm opening it up for you right now.

I love that board
what about the noise of them all? ideally at min and max rpms
How do you slide out the housing ?
Hi, once you've got the baseplate off, you pretty much just pull up on it while shoving the rubber grommet of the wiring in.
3:00 wdf is this?
