Thermaltake Water 2.0 Extreme Liquid CPU Cooler Review
Ryan Martin / 12 years ago
The Asetek mounting kit with the Thermaltake Water 2.0 Extreme is very good, it gives a very firm mount and is relatively simple. The only things to watch out for are making sure the screw holes in the backplate are pushed firmly in (if they are not they will just turn round and round as you screw) and if you are mounting on LGA 1155 don’t be put off by the fact the backplate is very wonky when lined up with the holes – it still works perfectly well.
The mounting of the pump and water block unit is as you would expect, there are no RAM or motherboard compatibility issues because the unit is very compact. The most important part of the mount is making sure you have room for a 38mm radiator with 25mm fans attached, this requires you to do some research into how much room your case has at the top where this unit would be mounted.
