Bykski 60 mm RC Series Radiator Review

Introduction

I encourage readers to first read through the review of the Bykski 30 mm RC series radiator, namely the CR-RD360-RC-TN-V2. It was sent as part of a larger shipment, but was the only radiator in because that box was what I later found out to be one of two boxes coming my way! This means there are going to be plenty of Bykski reviews over the course of the year, but I wanted to follow up with the second radiator review, which I had received requests for from both readers as well as Bykski directly. After all, the company saw the 30 mm version performing slightly better than average compared to all radiators and realized the thicker 60 mm version will probably look better even for those who simply see product names and chart positions. So here we are, and thanks again to Bykski for providing a review sample to TechPowerUp!


Bykski CR-RD360RC-TK60-V2 is the actual designation, but good luck getting that across. As before, branding is still an issue for the company, but this time in the form of technical SKU codes rather than a catchy product name. The "RD" refers to this being a radiator, and the "360" tells us this is a 360 mm radiator (triple 120 mm). "TK60" refers to the thickness class, with this being a 60-mm-thick radiator as opposed to the TK (40 mm) or TN (30 mm) we saw before. It is the "RC" I was interested in the most, with the letters standing for "red copper." Bykski says the entire core is made out of copper (probably as an oxide) rather than an alloy, with a rated thermal conductivity of up to 401 W/m.K compared to the usual brass that clocks in at around 150–160 W/m.K. It helped somewhat with the 30-mm-thick version, allowing that radiator to be one of the best-performing thin radiators in 2021. We will find out soon enough if the trend continues with the thicker version as we begin the review with a look at the specifications in the table below.
