welcome to my unboxing a first look at the Zelman lq 3:10 this is an all-in-one liquid CPU cooler has a built-in pump with slim waterblock copper base of microphones to maximize cooling performance high-capacity radiator use for high heat dissipation additional 120mm your fan can be installed durable long lasting tubes environmentally friendly anti-corrosion coolant and slick seems to be bothered by the plastic that is all over the package because it makes it hard for him to see anything because you know cameras and plastic and reflections and all that so we're come on you can do this line you can do this so we are gonna get this bad boy opened up and have a look at what is inside I am fully expecting to find a water cooling unit inside although I could be surprised it's a clone no it's a water cooler okay so the first thing we see here is the manual so this is for the lq series shows us the compatibility LGA 2011 1366 11 56 1155 FM one am3+ a.m. 3 a.m. 2 a.m. 2 + FM 2 as well everything so basically it's compatible with whatever you want and has nice little graphics here for how to install all the various parts with great nice big pictures and all that kind of stuff I mean at this point these things are these these prefilled liquid cooling units are pretty prevalent out there so you've probably encountered one at some point or another all the mounting screws and hardware that you could possibly need for all the different sockets this is the Intel backplate for 775 1155 1156 and 1366 Intel hold-down swappable piece here AMD hold down AMD backplate and LGA 2011 is done a slightly different way next up we've got the fan itself so I personally wish they'd gone with a different style fan for this particular product you can see here there are only mounting holes on one side which does give it a cleaner look when it's installed and I understand why they did this because what this does do is it decreases the potential interfere with other stuff around the back 120 millimeter slot on your case see because there's not these corners where you know you might have stuff coming up here so I understand why they did this but it does not give me the option to put the fan on the other side because I'm going to have well I'm not going to be able to mount it or I will be able to mount it but air will leak around and I won't get optimal cooling out of it you can see it also has some shapeliness to it here which presumably is for quietness or or some kind of you know optimized reason but I would have preferred to have that mounting flexibility it is a pwm fan however which is better than what most people are including with these pre-dawn water cooling kits so at least it'll run very very quiet next we've got the radiator itself so this is a slim radiator which improves compatibility with cases however if you're going for maximum overclocks you're going to want a thick radiator or a dual radiator liquid cooling unit the bottom has a high quality thermal compound pre applied to it this is a full copper water block including the copper fins on the inside so you don't have to worry about any corrosion or any kind of nonsense like that not to mention it's got an anti corrosive coolant inside and we've got his almond logo on the top the tubes are extremely high quality so you can see you can twist those up as much as you want so even if like its installed here and your CPU socket was like here you wouldn't have to worry about the tubes kinking or anything like that there's nothing kinky about this particular water cooling product I think that actually pretty much wraps it up power for the pump is provided by a three pin connector which is black overall this thing looks outstanding because everything's sort of black and silver and it's gonna look great installed in your system thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look don't forget to subscribe to Linus tech tips from unboxings reviews and other computer videos
