The OASIS LCS

The OASIS watercooler arrived on my doorstep in rather plain brown cardboard packaging, such packaging that doesn't match what the NEO 17 came in. Opening the box reveals the manual up top, with protective foam hiding the cooler from view. Removing the foam exposes the OASIS cooler, and its few bundled items.


The tubing is packaged separate from the cooler, so you'll have to connect that once you pull the OASIS unit out of its box. The OASIS cooler isn't very large; it is barely bigger than a 140 mm fan, and features a power cable that comes out its side which you then connect to the NEO 17's power plug, while you take the power adapter for the NEO 17 and plug that into the back of the OASIS cooler.


The OASIS LCS features grille openings on either side, so the airflow of the fan enters one side and exits the other. It's barely thicker than a single fan and a radiator, and it gets filled by using the bundled spout and putting it into the opening at the front top of the OASIS LCS.


There is a single LED on the front; by default mine glows green, but you can change the color within the "Control Center" software. At this point I'd like to point out again how simple and small the NEO 17's internal piping for the OASIS actually is; just several inches of cooper pipe make up the cooling passage, yet its enough to make a significant impact. I am truly amazed at how effective it is.
