Well all I can say is I have trusted toms reviews up until now and I still trust that this test was done fairly
though tbh it would be interesting to see how the h220 does with the faster h100i fans, the point of a review is this is what you get for your £xxx out od the box
Phelan you mention other reviews at the end of the day you can look at 10 reviews and get 10 different results you just pick the reviewer you trust and go with that imo
In other videos Tom has stated that he does not use the factory TIM when doing his reviews. If I remember correctly he uses NT-H1.
True, but when the concensus of the 9 other reviews is opposite of the 1, I tend to think the 1 a bad apple.
I'm sure if swiftech feel that toms results are way off and he may have a faulty part they would be happy sending him another
Ill always stand by my testing though, its far more open and thorough than all the other sites.
Like I said earlier, check out the other reviews.
Links maybe please?
I don't like it at all, all that hose :blink:
I did wonder if all the extra hose was there as they expected users to trim them to make a tidier build? Not sure how easy these units are to open up and work on mind.
Scoob.
Pretty simple, just open the fill port and hold the unit upside down.

The hoses just come off with a simple Philip's head screw driver to remove the screws on the clamps. Then you just cut the tubing to length and re-fill the unit from the same fill-port that Phelan says can also be used to drain it. Time involved < 10 minutes.![]()
is that re-using the same coolant? I would've thought it necessary to flush the unit with distillled water and then add fresh coolant. What are the swiftech-approved coolants anyway?
The coolant is water-based with additives. If you just want to shorten the tubes, using the same coolant shouldn't be an issue.
