AIO Liquid Coolers Will Never Leak Again (Or So We're Told)

2019-05-30
firstly a big thank you to Emma site for sponsoring our trip to Computex 2019 please check out their range of intel base motherboards via the link in the video description also thank you to Corsair for their support please check all their exciting products out via the link in the video description welcome back to harbor unbox today we at the deep cool booth and I was really hoping that we could find a frozen 2 or some sort of frozen version that would work with the Xen two processors but unfortunately not that they do have a big air cooler it's just not it's not a fries and branded cooler so I know you guys will be disappointed because surely everyone wanted to see the fries and make a comeback anyway what we do have is a really really cool demonstration of their anti leaked technology you guys might have seen we've run a few deep cool ads for they're all in one liquid coolers that do have their new anti leaked technology and I was really interested to see how much difference that made or some sort of demonstration and they do have a demonstration here showing that pressure difference with and without that technology installed and it's really quite interesting it makes a massive difference for between about 50 to 70 degrees of course if you go above that it gets out of control but we'll get some b-roll that will show you guys some figures of the demonstration they're showing very interesting stuff they also have some you all in one liquid coolers so we'll check those out as well and a couple of new cases so let's go do that okay so firstly I have to talk about this really impressive demonstration the deep cool setup to show off how their new anti leak technology works before we get to the demonstration I'll just say that over the years I have had quite a few all-in-one liquid coolers fail and many that fail ended up leaking at some point and this is an issue that's plagued almost all brands that I've used aware of this issue deep cool has spent the last three years developing their anti leak technology and while it appears very effective it's also quite a simple design or at least that's how it appears to me anyway what deep cool is done here is stick a small blood alike tube in the radiator so as the liquid and the gases within the loop expand due to rising temperatures the bladder is squeezed tight and the air within is pushed out then as temperatures drop the pressure on the bladder is reduced and it expands once again to its normal size and it will also draw in from the outside as it returns to its original size without this bladder thing that I'm calling it the pressure inside the loop builds up to much higher levels and this will stress the unit eventually the weakest link in the design will fail and typically this is some kind of rubber hosing or seal and the chances of failure dramatically increase over time as the coolant reacts with the metals and this sort of introduces contaminants into the loop which further increases internal pressure so to demonstrate the effectiveness of this design deep cool put together what's a really cool demonstration using their Castle model all in one liquid cooler and they've done this with and without the anti leak technology and they've quite clearly labeled which ones which and then they've done so using their 240 and 360 millimetre models it was difficult to film this entire test as it does take quite a few minutes as you would imagine we have to heat everything up and then you can turn the fans off and see how the pressure is affected by all that sort of stuff so we didn't film all of that there were quite a few people and that makes it difficult but anyway when watching the demonstration we saw that the pressure difference it was around 40 percent higher for the model that lacked the anti leak technology that said we were dealing with very high block temperatures of around 80 degrees but even went down around 50 degrees the radiator sporting the anti leak technology was reporting considerably lower pressure within the loop it is a really interesting demonstration and the concept certainly makes sense to us but of course this is one of those things that well I suppose time will tell just how useful this technology is and well how effective it is but it's still great to see that deep cool have developed this technology has said it seems to work very well and it's great that it's now being offered across their entire line of all-in-one liquid coolers speaking of all-in-one liquid coolers deep cool also had their newcastle 240 x and 360 x models on display this seems to be a more serious offering probably targeting overclockers and it was suggested to offer the very best cooling performance of any AIO on the market right now deep cool has upgraded the pump with a more powerful motor and a pressure charging impeller they've added 25% more fins to the cold plate for a more efficient heat transfer and they've dumped the RGB fans in favour of three specially tuned TF 120 s fans that a custom match to the radiator then for a little bit of well bling flashiness whatever you call it they have modified the block housing to include customizable logos along with an external ring around the well sort of the rim of the cooler you'll see what I mean in the the b-roll the base diameter of the block housing has also been reduced to improve compatibility with components around the socket so we didn't see any problems with the previous model but apparently on certain boards certain hardware configurations this does improve compatibility overall I like the upgrades that deep calls made here with the Castle ax range and for those interested they are now on sale the 240 X has an MSRP of 120 dollars u.s. while the 360 X will set you back a hundred and sixty dollars u.s. moving on deep cool also had their new assassin 3 air cooler on display and this big boy is designed to take on knock to us NHD 15 and price-wise it is quite similar I think the MSRP was about $100 u.s. this beast weighs roughly one and a half kilos so yeah as I said it's big boy does pack a pair of 140 millimeter fans and is rated for up to 128 watts of heat dissipation there's seven u-shaped heat pipes in total and I've got to say it looks like I'll have no trouble taking on the D 15 so perhaps that's a comparison we can make in the not-too-distant future other than that deep cool had a few cases on display but most of them had already been shown off at the CES tradeshow earlier in the year so that concludes our look at deep cools products they have on display here for me it was that pressure test that was really interesting so I'm interested in what you guys think of that and I wonder how hard it would be for Tim and I to set up something like that so we could test the pressure of a whole different heap of all in one liquid coolers so yeah that's certainly something I'd be interested in doing I'm pretty sure that something you guys would be interested in seeing but ultimately I think we probably have to wait I don't know 6 12 18 months to put you guys have been using these anti leaked all-in-one liquid coolers and see if they actually don't leak as have't eyes obviously it's pretty hard to know right now but it's a promising technology and it seems to work really well definitely reduces the pressure inside the loop so very cool stuff anyway I think that's going to wrap it up for here Tim hasn't tried trolling me on this one he's done a great job behind the camera that's always much appreciated thanks Tim and thank you guys for watching as always and I'll catch you in the next one bye
