while Gentek is trying to change the game up with their Triton CPU cooler l1 coolers have been mostly rocking black tubes since basically the dawn of time so including clear tubes and the ability to dye the included liquid yourself or pre-purchase it pre dyed is a bold move cotton let's see how it pays off stay subscribe to watch tech tips for probably more cooling videos as we get into the summer season the Coolermaster Nova touch tkl utilizes genuine taupe or hybrid capacitive switches and is now available at a more affordable price click now to learn more let's start with a physical tour of the Triton one could easily say that this is the best-looking AO cooler out there currently the first thing you should notice is the completely clear tubing and CPU block this allows for more than justice aesthetic purposes as letting you see the coolant moving around and the pump actually working is pretty cool it's tubing can be a big draw but what isn't described is just how flexible smooth and soft the tubes are and that's not necessarily a good thing they're so flexible in fact that while it does allow for far easier installation and positioning of the block radiator and tubing they kink extremely easily so easily in fact that they may be fine while its installed in most configurations but I'm also willing to bet that many users will kink them a few times during the installation process the mounting hardware is very solid and has a good weight to it and it happens to look good which is kind of great as well because it will complement that beautiful reservoir but now on to the main feature of this whole video the pump CPU block end reservoir the reservoir has a fill port for easy access and fittings that are easily removable and expandable into other parts your system like your GPU you could in fact color the included liquid and that's exactly what Regin tech planned they included three colors of dye in the box red green and blue in case that's too much tinkering for your blood which is unlikely but anyways don't worry right gym tech has you covered with two other models of the Triton they have the Triton core which is the only model that doesn't come with the included fans later and also has no added dyes the next model is the trident RGB which is pretty self-explanatory these models come pre colored in our G or B so you don't have to worry about possibly making a mess losing your liquid or screwing up your pump and it's a good thing that they include this model in their lineup because there's a big sanity check here by Triton stated right on the webpage is that opening the fill port on your cooler voids your warranty and they hold no responsibility for damages caused by the dyes that being said this shouldn't be too surprising as it would be very easy for an inexperienced builder to wreck their system once that port is opened since I mentioned them earlier I should probably talk about the included fans they are actually pretty decent as experienced in our testing they push a fair amount of air and are decently quiet where things start to get a bit different and strange is the fact that the fans are actually tethered together at the cable that terminates in one three pin fan connector instead of two the reason why they did this was done is because they included an inline fan controller which is actually pretty cool in theory but I have concerns for example there are no numbers or symbols telling you what speed or voltage the fans are running at and you have to open up your side panel every time you need to adjust your fan speed which can get very annoying I would have appreciated it if even a like one to five marking was on it so you would be more clear in the end let's backtrack a bit to the box this came in when you open the box you're greeted by one tiny piece of closed cell foam over top of the CPU block to make it a little bit safer and then mostly just some flimsy cardboard for the rest yet again I had some concerns upon researching the cooler and reading customer reviews on Amazon Newegg and NC XCOM there were tons of cases of dead-on-arrival or leaky coolers not cool anyways it's now results time as you see in the graphs the Triton manages to do very well with our Noctua n ff12 straps to it and even beating out the h 100 i by a little bit the stock fans are running at 1100 rpm we're not very audible at all which is great but as you can see their performance wasn't necessarily any to write home about which is not too surprising due to these their stellar audio levels all the trenton may not be the best performing cooler out there it definitely gets you to a very comfortable temperature and easily enters the expected range of temperatures for a 240 millimeter cooler while being one hell of a looker in conclusion this is one hell of a sexy cooler and that seems to be a lot of what people are going for when they're looking for aftermarket going these days anyways so that might be fine if you're not interested in aesthetics or have an opaque side panel then this may not be the cooler for you dead on arrival issues are nothing to scoff at and if you can fit a 280 millimeter red and then definitely go with that which I guess is true for pretty much any 240 millimeter cooler if you're not going for aesthetics personally I really dig that you can change the colors of this bad boy and I like that you can actually easily drain it to either color match to a different build in the future just go back to colorless if you please I'm very happy to see Triton bringing coolers in this direction clear tubes and custom colors is a bit of a gamble for them and I'm happy to see that so far it seems to be playing out speaking of looking good Dollar Shave Club
