ArcticStorm uses innovative designs and the best materials to deliver the one of the
coolest temperatures. The lightweight aluminum waterblock uses a direct copper
cold block contact with precision 0.3mm micro-channels for maximum heat extraction
throughput.
The sleek water block is crafted with acrylic and laid with a thin metal plate to finish
its appeal. The waterblock covers the full length of the card, providing full board
coverage for a fluid design and slim profile.
Compatibility with major third party liquid cooling systems is ensured with standard
G1/4 threaded fitting, and allows users to bring their own liquid cooling hardware
much more easily.
SPECTRA lighting shines through the translucent acrylic, and is customizable
through the FireStorm fine-tuning utility. Adjust color, brightness and lighting style
with a few simple clicks.
