A Closer Look – CWB-C1 CPU Water Block
The CPU block comes in a small box too, with all the mounting gear, a handy tightening tool, thermal paste, backplate and the block all neatly packaged.
The backplate is universal for both AMD/Intel CPUs, and it comes with a thick layer of padding on the back to ensure you get a tight fit on the block without causing damaged to the rear of the motherboard.
The finish on the block is gorgeous, with a shiny chrome surface that contrasts nicely with the black section. There’s a nice angular design to the edges too, giving it a more stylish and refined look that is sure to look stunning on your motherboard.
Be default, the Intel mounting arms are pre-installed, but these can be easily unscrewed and replaced with the AMD arms should you need them.
On the top, two 3/8″ screw fittings for your barbs, nice and easy to work with.
The contact surface on this is huge, ensuring you get a full-cover fit even on larger CPUs.
The bottom is polished to a mirror shine for better heat transfer, and it’s also incredibly heavy. All that metal means better TDP, and more surface area on the fins on the inside to help move heat from the block to the fluid.
