Anyone with experience with Bykski for a CL, please let me know your experiences with it - quality, durability, price, etc. I know @IkeaGnomelikes it.

I'm inspired by this new LTT video to ask.

I've been using computers since around 1978, started learning programming in 1980 on Apple IIs, started learning about hardware in 1990, ran a BBS from 1990-95, built my first Windows PC around 2000, taught myself malware removal starting in 2005 (also learned on Bleeping Computer), learned web dev starting in 2017, and I think I can fill a thimble with all that knowledge. 😉 I'm not an expert, which is why I keep investigating the answers that others give to try and improve my knowledge, so feel free to double-check the advice I give.

My phone's auto-correct is named Otto Rong.🤪😂

if u have experience DIY pc parts, no harm grabbing some (i avoid their pumps tho)

 

from bykski, so far i've used 

  • gpu blocks, decent quality & usually cheaper than even alphacool
  • reservoirs
  • fittings, 1 90degree rotary fail leak test out of 12 i gotten
  • rads, no leaks but u have to flush/clean it like all other rads

more than a year, all those no issue 

 

they tend to miss out on the user manual, 1 of my gpu block has 2 missing screws (just m2, i grab at my local hardware shop no issue)

Their GPU blocks have been good and their CPU blocks are basically clones of EK Supremacy...literally you can swap parts between them.  GPU blocks had issue during covid where they claim to have used a bad nickel plating supplier, allegedly it's fixed.

 

This little generic pump works shockingly well: https://www.amazon.com/BXQINLENX-Cooling-Brushless-Computer-computer/dp/B01GY7426A

 

TBH I wouldn't be surprised if they're the OEM supplier for a lot of other brands.
