cferg10 Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 What do you guys recommend to replace my Swifttech H220-X. I've read that around 1.5-2 years the pump starts normally having issues and with that being known I think I got over the novelty of watercooling and am ready to get back to safe, reliable air cooling... I was going to go with Noctua D14/D15 but I can't get over their hideous colors which does not match the rest of my build at all....

ir_cow Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Well the H220 has a 3 year warranty so you have bit of time left. From my experience with only a handful of AIO coolers is that either the fluids run out of the pump fails after 3 years on the older (model) ones. All these companies have made much better AIO coolers since they started coming out from 2010~. They may very well last 10 years now, but I do not know.

slick2500 Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 You could always dye the fans black. It would require a little bit of disassembly and reassembly but I do not see a reason that some black RIT would not take care of that hideous color combo they decided to use.

bp9801 Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Noctua does have other colors for the fans, like the industrialPPC line and the redux line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 Chop things up, buy a nice pump, and resurrect it. My D5 vario was used (around 2-3 years old) when I got it in 2009. Even with daily use, it's still running strong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
