A fan controller is included to regulate the fan speed on the radiator. When I first turned on the fan without the controller, I realized straight away why it was included. The fan is about as loud as two X1900s on full fan speed. There is a speed control that goes into a PCI slot and plugs into this unit as well as the fan and power source.


600ml of coolant is included to fill the system. The coolant is a mix of something that I couldn't find any details on. I would say it's safe to assume it's a mix of water and Polypropylene Glycol, or something to that degree. GIGABYTE just states it's a "nano-scale" coolant which is anti-freezing/anti-corrosive.


The tubing is half inch (1/2") inner diameter (ID) anti-kinking and UV reactive, stamped with the GIGABYTE logo. It also comes with two spring sleeves that you can place on the tubing to prevent any kinking of the tubing.

The Radiator

For the radiator, GIGABYTE used a 120mm fan based Aluminum radiator. The actual radiator part is enclosed in an Aluminum housing along with the 120mm fan to give it a nice finished and clean look. I did find that sometimes there was a slight vibration coming from the radiator, but it was simply solved by moving the fan wire.


If you take the housing off, the front side of the radiator along with the fan are exposed. The finished on the radiator is a simple powder coated grey.

The Pump

When GIGABYTE designed the pump, they also included the reservoir to make it an all-in-one solution. This cuts down on the amount of piping that is needed, and the amount of space the unit needs to be installed. The pump is rated for 400 l/hr, producing a mere 20 dBA of noise. It runs off of 12 VDC and has a life expectancy of 70000 hours. A very good safety precaution has been built into the unit as well - If the unit gets too low on water or too hot, an alarm sounds, and it can also shut down your system to prevent overheating and a permanent shut down.
