The fans are FirstD 12 RGB PWM. A black frame surrounds the fan blades, which are white. Corner anti-vibration pads are included in the purchase price. The controlled LEDs are strategically placed around unit, and they can be programmed to display a variety of color gradients and effects. As a bonus, the fan and RGB wired are bridged, and the wires are flat, together to improve cable management even more.
Configuration of the ARGB lighting can be done using the motherboard software; all major manufacturers are supported. Because of the wide range of colors and effects available, there are virtually no boundaries. Because the illumination is clearly visible through the black but translucent pump cover as well as on the fans, and because the presentation of colors, gradients, and effects is flawless, there is nothing to complain about.
When we flip it around we see the radiator a little better. Easy to mount, most big-tower chassis' have pre-fitted holes and space for 240 / 360 mm rads, but not all of them. Fortunately, you can choose from many radiator sizes. The radiator is matte black.
The cooler block is compact, circular, and flat. The pump lid is black. As an additional feature, the bracket can be removed by rotating it, at default an AMD bracket is installed, you'll need to swap it out if you are on an Intel platform.
The CPU block ports can also be rotated in order to achieve the best possible alignment of the hoses. The latter are constructed of rubber and sheathed in glossy black nylon material and are roughly 40 cm in length, which is plenty. Copper is used in the construction of the base plate.
A nice diffused RGB lighting pattern spans the top of the spider styled cooling block. You also have a choice in terms of orientation, as the top cover can be easily removed and turned to suit your needs.
RGB + FAN PWM run through one cable leading towards the CPU block, it's cleaner .. to some degree.
