Aqua Computer aquagraFX GeForce GTX 480 Water Block Review
Today we have another GeForce GTX 480 water block, the Aqua Computer aquagraFX is an alternative to the popular DangerDen design water block. It is important to note that Aqua Computer primarily sells their water cooling parts around europe, but does have an American distributor which does not currently list the aquagraFX. Read on to see if this water block will be the next addition to your loop as we compare it to the DangerDen GTX 480 water block with impressive results!
A couple months ago we got to look at a GeForce GTX 480 GPU water block from Danger Den. Today we are looking at another option for taming the heat from the mighty nVidia GeForce GTX480 video card. This one comes to us from Aqua Computer. Aqua Computer is based in Germany and makes a wide range of water cooling accessories from CPU blocks and GPU blocks to system monitoring tools. The GPU block we are looking at today is from Aqua Computer’s aquagraFX series of water blocks. It is a full cover block that is CNC milled from a solid block of copper. The top and backing plates are made from stainless steel. This not only looks nice, but steel is lighter than copper and the inlet ports are also made from Delrin plastic, which is even lighter yet. Overall the aquagraFX water block weighs in at 850g; that is 350g lighter than the 1.2kg Danger Den full copper block we recently looked at.
