Feser Attack

[CyberDruid]

what is more important, length or girth (aka depth)?

According to my wife..it's flow characteristics that really count

Wow nobody can complain the TC rads are too expensive now...


Sorry but those Feser advertisements are sad and kind of creepy...

Thanks for the temp results Malik.

[DarthBeavis]

It would be cool if the prices leveled out on the Feser rads. Give us more competition!

Some new stuff from Feser One

[Giannis86]

those look good, although i think the Blitz fittings look more slick.. any1 would care to test these?

ps: malik do you have any clear side views?

[MaXXimus]

I think when I go to redo my hoses in about 6 months I will have to look into their UV tubing... now I would ASSUME?? that the UV reactiveness would last much longer with the tubing.... versus UV liquid??

[iowamoe300]

Those look similar to the bitspower fittings. Are they 1/2 x 3/4? I have the bitspower 1/2 x 3/4 and they are freakin sweet!

As to the Feser radiator... I can see how it's not worth it to some, but for me it was a good option. I already have the top of my v2000 case cut out for a (gonna say the K word here) Koolance triple rad setup from a year ago. Although some may make fun of me for using this, I was a beginner and I didn't want to start out with anything complicated. I wanted a rad that would fit in the Koolance fan shroud (which is actually nice looking). My only option was a HW Labs, and I just didnt want to use High CFM fans and have noise, and i couldn't use a thermochill cause of the weird fan spacing. This Feser triple rad worked perfectly. The fan spacing is almost identical to what is on the Koolance shroud. A little modification and longer screws and its a pretty nice setup. I have to get a riser put in to get the super thick radiator a little higher up, but the performance so far is top notch compared to my crappy Koolance rad, and that is with crappy fans on the Feser. I really didn't want to pay $170 for a radiator, but it's worth the extra money to me!

If you could be so kind to upload a pick - I would love to see the X-Changer fitting with that Koolance shroud.

I too like the look of the Koolance Exos Shroud....

And as for the Fesser - Band Wagon. " I am glad they are mixing it up a little."
It's good for us all when companies compete for our buisness!

Here are some pics for your xs_rob. This is the shoud that comes with the EHX-1020SL http://www.koolance.com/water-coolin...product_id=635 I am still waiting on my riser to come http://www.koolance.com/water-coolin...product_id=639. I have it setting on some blocks now for clearance purposes so I can use it till tommorow.

The Feser is a perfect fit for the shroud, all I had to do was remove some aluminum from the riser underneath at the front and back so the shroud would sit level on the radiator. Other than that, I had to get slightly longer screws to mount the shroud to it and thats it. I'm waiting on the riser, and 3 sanyo/denki ace fans that should be arriving nda tommorow.

People can say what they like about Koolance, but the shroud is a solid product. I also like the blocks I have my for 8800's. Using them a year, with the koolance rad, and apogee gtx block which has copper in it, and after tearing it down last week for my new wc parts, there is zero corrosion or pitting of the aluminum anywhere. The copper on the apogee gtx looks good as the day I put it in.

Hey, that's cool. I was wondering about shrouds for the feser. Thanks for the posts.

[XS_RoB]

Thanks IowaMoe300!

I appreciate the picks very much! Please pm me a pic when you get the riser and all installed!

Thanks Again!

Feser shroud




left is Acryl PMMA material, right is Polycarbonate

Could these be stained e.g. immersed in dyed water for a few days?

[TedShred]

I was just going to post some pics of those "xtender" shrouds myself, thanks initialized.

I got an email from Feser today saying that they're tweaking the design of the shrouds to trim some weight, based on some feedback they got from modders. It also mentioned that the shrouds will be available in one month, at a weight of about 100g.

[InfamousChu]

you guys happen to have pics of the shrouds installed with LEDs?

[TedShred]

I mentioned that in another email I sent to Feser, I'll be sure to post if I get some pics in reply.

[Malik]

And some technical data about rads ( right click - save as ):

Xchanger 120

Xchanger 240

Xchanger 360

[TedShred]

cool, thanks for the pics.

Looks like they've chiseled out a bit of the acrylic to save weight. I'm looking forward to seeing these things lit up.

BTW: if anyone hasn't done so, ya gottal check out the TFC website. The audio when cursoring over certain parts is just hilarious, but in a cool kinda way! "ACID GREEN WIDULDRAVYLED EFFEC!!" ... love it!

[stoner]

i think no chance to use a 38mm's fan on that shround, is it right?

[TedShred]

I think so, I think it's only for 120mm

[stoner]

I think so, I think it's only for 120mm

off course 120mm, but i mean 120mm x 120mm x 38mm .
i think the screws are too short for a 38mm fan and that shround comes with screws for a 25mm's fan

Duh! Sorry about that. (Oh man)

Good point about the screws. I'll post if I hear something about that.

i dont think anyone mentioned the warranty... does the warranty not justify the extra cost without regards to the 5C claim ?

Warranty on radiators is almost useless. It either fail or don't upon using it initially (beside Pete's unfortunate event, which might be chalked off due to the extreme abuse of the radiator). 99% of subsequent damage is due to user error.

With this in mind, touting 3 years warranty is pointless. Even Thermochill have a good warranty and sometime, they will deal even if the warranty if out if this can show it's a manufacturing failure.

Even embossing with the logo is just bling at best, which can be skipped to save money.

Maybe read the thread again?
