Specifications and features

The Deepcool Castle 240EX RGB series was introduced at the end of May 2019.

“The AIO is driven by a 3-phase, x-life motor, and pressure charging impeller, CASTLE 240/360EX’s pump is more powerful yet quieter. With 25% more skived fins on the backside of the copper base, the heat absorption area is extensively increased. More fins mean an increased surface area which allows for better heat dispersion. With an ultra-large copper base, the cooler is compatible with all mainstream CPU platforms, including the TR4. It’s smaller in size, therefore can be installed in any direction. This is compatible with almost everything which is very beneficial for all PC builders. Fans specially tuned (to match to radiator’s property) TF120 S fans are included. The fans are also equipped with patented two-layer fan blades and flow-amplifying + noise-canceling frames “

Features:

Anti-leak Tech Inside, exclusively safe
25% more skived fins on the backside of the copper base, the heat absorption area extensively increased
Flow route optimized to reduce operation noise and energy loss.
2 specially tuned TF120 S fans are included (in matching the radiator's properties).
Customizable Logo, exciting DIY experience.
Ultra-large copper base, extensive compatibility (including TR4).
5V Addressable RGB, adjustable through the motherboard, or included the controller.

Deepcool AS500 PLUS CPU Cooler Review
We review the Deepcool AS500 PLUS. This dual fan-based CPU cooler absolutely impresses in looks, features as well as performance. It's easily tagged as a high-end performing air-cooler with low nois...

Deepcool AK400 air cooler review
Today, we are reviewing an air cooler from Deepcool; it’s an AK400. The AK400 is from the same family as the AK620 (a dual-tower cooler). The previous product of this type (air cooler) covered was the AS500, tested back at the end of 2020. It was so good (it earned the “Approved” award) that it stayed as a part of the chassis test suite. This time around, it’s also a single tower design cooler, with a four heat pipe tower layout, a unique matrix fin design, and a high-performance FDB fan that should provide excellent heat dissipation and low noise levels.

Deepcool CK560 chassis review
This time, we’re checking out the Deepcool CK560, an airflow-oriented mid-sized ATX tower PC chassis. I had an almost instant deja-vu when I saw the first materials about it. Why’s that? It looks almost exactly the same as the other Deepcool (previously also named GamerStorm) product, I mean the CG560, which I had in my hands for a review. Well, the front panel looks a bit different, but that’s not a significant change. Let’s check the other things as well.

Deepcool PQ1000M (1000W PSU) review
Today we’re putting the new Deepcool PQ1000M power supply on our test bench. The company is rather known for making the chassis, coolers, or fans, but two power supplies were already covered on guru3d. The first one was the DQ750-M back in 2018, a 750 Watt unit with an 80 Plus Gold certificate that earned the “Recommended” award. The second one was the DQ850-M-V2L which was reviewed in 2020, bringing, for example, the 10-year warranty (instead of 5-years), but on the other side – it was rather noisy in low-mid load. Another two years have passed (coincidence?), and the next unit from Deepcool is in our hands, again with more wattage (it looks like a rule).
