Posted March 5, 2023 I'm looking for anyone with experience with the Raijintek Antila Pure reservoir or the manufacturer as I've never heard of them. I couldn't find many reviews after a few weeks/months of use, most are just unboxings or install reviews. As it's water cooling I'm very nervous about using brands or hardware I can't find tons of reviews on. Really appreciate anyone's feedback if you have experience with them, thank you.

Posted March 5, 2023 Raijintek is a relatively popular brand in Asia and Europe (more so Easter Europe). Their stuff is often fine some things are a bit meh but thats usually because its a very budget friendly option so yeah cant give everything there. The only bad thing about this reservoir is that the rgb is a bit weak and you can see the individual leds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's more of a budget brand, hmmm, I guess that makes sense as the materials are quick thick alloy and tempered glass, if it was made by EK or Bitspower it would likely be double the price. To be honest I won't even bother to plug in the RGB, not interested in that... despite how many extra fps it would add Build: "The Cake Is A Lie" - (Portal 2 Theme) • Wall Mounted (in a ThermalTake Core P8 all sides removed) • Ryzen 5900X • 64GB Team Group Dark Pro (B-Dies) 3600MHz CL16 • ASUS X570-E Gaming • EK Quantum Plexi Monoblock • MSI RTX 3090 Suprim X • EK Quantum Plexi Block • 2TB Samsung 980 Pro Gen4 NVME • 8TB Samsung 870 QVO • Corsair RM 850X • 2x EK P480M Radiators • PrimoChill Fittings • 2x D5 Pumps • Monsoon MMRS Pump Housing • 2x HeatKiller Tube 200 Reservoirs • Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EXCEPT for their weird af acrylic reservoirs those are euhh something :p. The regular tubes, boxes, squares,... are all fine but the weird shaped ones arent the best at not leaking over time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The regular tubes, boxes, squares,... are all fine but the weird shaped ones arent the best at not leaking over time Oh yeah, I'm aware EK is nothing special, I like their customer service (from my experiences anyway), I just mean they would be double the price if they had the EK or BP labels on them.

Posted March 5, 2023 Author I realise I said that while having multiple EK parts in my system lol. I have only chose them because I liked the look of them and the price.

We usually can see the individual LEDs when look at the actual product ourselves. Often the RGB light pics without editing is actually too intense unless the product has extremely well diffused lighting. I always worry RGB G1/4 thread ports could wear down out and eventually leak.

Yeah, anything with RGB or lighting in general I always take with a pinch bucket of salt, marketing is always going to shew things. I don't care about the RGB at all, I only care about the plexi quality because of microfractures and the whole design really, how reliable is it... etc. I have just found that the Heatkiller res's which this one seems to be a copy of are actually available with multiport tops in some locations so those are now an option too Build: "The Cake Is A Lie" - (Portal 2 Theme) • Wall Mounted (in a ThermalTake Core P8 all sides removed) • Ryzen 5900X • 64GB Team Group Dark Pro (B-Dies) 3600MHz CL16 • ASUS X570-E Gaming • EK Quantum Plexi Monoblock • MSI RTX 3090 Suprim X • EK Quantum Plexi Block • 2TB Samsung 980 Pro Gen4 NVME • 8TB Samsung 870 QVO • Corsair RM 850X • 2x EK P480M Radiators • PrimoChill Fittings • 2x D5 Pumps • Monsoon MMRS Pump Housing • 2x HeatKiller Tube 200 Reservoirs • Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
