Raijintek Triton AIO question

[Rheinwasser]

Newegg only has red, green, and blue. All include fans.

 

Way to go newegg.

actually each version comes with all three colors, weird.

[Trik'Stari]

And a sticker on the fill cap that says "warranty void if removed"

 

because reasons.

thats not there on mine, even more weird.

If you read the newegg reviews, several people mention it. They also mention the thing coming cracked and leaking in the package. As well as problems caused when putting that cap back on.

hm.

i can only talk for my unit, it was fine. 

that doesnt really sound that great.

mine was perfectly fine...it had that sticker, removed it after inital test to make sure it was working fine...then poored red dye into the fluid.

I think they have them available with colored liquid already, mine had 3 colour included in the box (red, green and blue dye)

[Valaris]

Mine had the sticker. I removed it and put in another dye (I wanted purple). Been without issues for 2 months. I did see several reviews about the packaging not being good enough and things cracking in shipping. Hell, mine travelled from Vancouver to Montreal twice before arriving at my place and was without issues. I got lucky I guess.

mine did toronto/montreal in 2 days in -20c temperatures and arrived alright...but i must admit the packaging was really poor...the unit had freedom to move inside the raijintek box and the reservoir could have been damaged by the rad or something like that...they should use some foam inside there to keep the unit from moving...i guess i got lucky too.

[Rhynotank]

Mine came fine. It doesnt make any noise either. I do agree that the packaging should have used some foam or something rather than goofy cardboard. I have the pump connected to the molex and I bled all the air out. There is a lot of air! Had to fill mine a few days ago. I think I might have gotten lucky.

I could see the block cracking easy from people taking off the fill port and wrenching it (like alot of people do) when putting it back on.

yeah i think nothing should be very very tight on these...i will unscrew the fill cap i think i screwed it too hard indeed.

[bluephoenix]

Im wondering if anyone from Aus has gotten this cooler and what their experiences are with shipping. Seen it on pc case gear for $119 plus shipping and that they come pre dyed

How loud is the pump? And please be honest and very detailed

 

i plugged it into my mainboard and undervolted it. theres not much more to it.

Quick update on this guys...ended up plugging the pump into a CPU fan header on the motherboard and now i can control the pump speed along with the fan speed so that when cpu temps rise the pump start going quicker just like the fans on the rad...that way it's dead quiet on idle i won't hear the pump it's at 50% speed on idle and ramps up to 95% or 100% under load...the idle temps have went up around 4c doing that...but it's much quieter when browsing the web and stuff so it's really worth it...load temps are the same as they used to be which is around 65c while stress testing at 1.2v...not bad at all...now i like it it's quiet and efficient.

 

Thanks!

How is it when you compare

 

Open case with head next to it

closed case with hgead next to it

 

and try to focus on the pump noise. There must be some noise. Edit: idle nosies only.

 

If not, the Triton gets back on the wanted list.

idle noise now is next to nothing, my case fans and especialy my HDD are much louder than the pump sound now...you do have to open the case and put your ear right next to the pump to hear it...it's silent on idle now.

I just wanna know how well the pump would perform with two GPU's and one or two larger rads added to the loop.

its in my opinion no all in one pump anywhere would handle what your asking.

[Trik'Stari]

That's what I figured. Although supposedly the H-220X can. I think it has a D5 pump? Not 100% sure on that.

looks like it can defenetly be done...

 

 

This guys has 2 gpu's and a 360mm rad connected to the pump.

 

Here this one added a GPU to his loop and an extra rad:

 

 

The pump on this is defenetly very powerful i'm running it at only 50% speed right now and the flow is plenty to keep the CPU cooled bellow 62c while rendering videos.

Where are you getting these? I want one so badly now lol

 

Is the coolant UV reactive?

[Gullerback]

maybe i stand corrected,  I just had/have a hard time believing it could push all that

This i DO know =p, Yes its UV reactive 

[Valaris]

I'm amazed the pump is that strong. Definitely answers the question of whether I should get a custom loop soon: Nope. sticking to this for now. 

[i_build_nanosuits]

Is the coolant UV reactive?

i know for a fact that the red one is not UV reactive, the blue maybe...and the green one is indeed defenetly UV reactive:

this is the green one with the original coolant under UV leds:

 

But the beauty of it is that you can use any dye you want that is UV reactive...even if you go with a pre-coloured version of the unit you can always flush it and re-do your own mix for it.

It defenetly look like it's a very strong pump...when you look at how many liters per hour this thing can move you come to realise that it's quite strong...but...how well is it build? how long can it sustain such stress? these values are unknown...i'm not sure i'd be comfortable pushing the limits like that...i'd probably add a gpu and still feel safe about it...but a 360mm rad and two extra gpu's?! that's pushing it IMHO for longevity and safety reason's i wouldnt recommend such crazy things.

 

according to raijintek spec sheet the triton pump can move 120L/Hr at 12v...i have absolutely no idea how that number compares to other AIO and specialised pumps that people use for such crazy watercooling loops to be honest.

 

Here are the triton pump specs if you guys want to double check on this:

 

• Pump Dimensions 38 x 56 x39 (mm)
• Pump Bearingh Type Graphite Pipe and Ceramix Axis
• Pump Q-Max 120L/Hr
• Pump noise 18 dBA
• Pump Life Expectancy 50,000 hours
• Pump Speed 3000 RPM @ 12v DC
• Pump Power 4 W

i assume it's got to be decently powerful otherwise they wouldnt sell this as an expandable AIO kit...

120L/hr is like a freaking bathtub filled every hour by that thing.
