Enermax Liqtech 120X and 240 review - Product Showcase

Product Gallery

As always, the packaging -- well, everything is packaged, cushioned and bundled safely in the box. Let's rip that packaging open.

Once opened up you'll spot the liquid cooling unit consisting of the radiator, fan, tubing, pump/cooling block. Mostly pre-fitted and ready to use of course. Everything is carefully packaged and individually wrapped in plastic. Photos and installation wise we'll focus on the 240 kit, but throughout the review you will obviously see the 120X kit in action as well. The installation principles are the same for both-kits.
 

You'll spot a backplate that supports a wide variety of CPU sockets; Intel LGA 2011 / 1366 / 1156 / 1155 / 1150 / 775 and AMD Socket FM2 / FM1 / AM3+ / AM3 / AM2+ / AM2 based processors can be used in combination with this cooler. That's extensive socket support alright.

Included are:

• Liquid CPU Cooler
• Mounting kit for all modern CPU sockets
• Dual High Performance Fans 600~2500 RPM (with max RPM selector switch).
• Fan and radiator mounting screws
• Thermal compound
• Quick Start Guide

So summed up, once unboxed you'll spot the cooling unit consisting of the radiator assembly, fans and brackets + back-plate that supports a very wide range of AMD and Intel processors. Enermax managed to keep the installation simple, just the basics for installation are needed.

Here we have the 240 unit, we'll need to mount the two variable PWM fans (each 120mm), with the pump and radiator assembled in one single unit. Both fans are pre-wired on one connector and are controlled from a RPM/PWM controller on your motherboard or. The radiator has a nice red stripe that gives the product that classy feel. These red stripes are rubberized so they also prevent resonating noises from the fans.
