Cooler Master Aquagate ALC-U01 Liquid Cooling System

Introduction:

Cooler Master started out in 1992, their mission is to provide some of the best thermal solutions on the market. Cooler Master was kind enough to supply us with one of their new Aquagate ALC-U01 water cooling systems to put through its paces.

When the Aquagate arrived I was shocked, the box is on end as tall as most mid tower cases and the packaging is top quality! The Aquagate water cooling system has the reservoir, pump, radiator, display, and temperature controls all encased inside an aluminum unit twice the size of most cd-rom drives (very reminiscent of the old double height hard drives). This system has some great features it can be mounted inside or outside a case, it can be mounted in a case where a second PSU would normally be, and it can be disconnected and removed with very minimal leakage from the lines.
