Watercool HEATKILLER GPU X R9 290X LT Acrylic Edition Ni-Bl [15033]

The most prominent features of the HEATKILLER® GPU-X³ series include superior cooling performance, excellent workmanship, slim profile, and an eye-catching design.

The technical details are just as impressive. Beside the GPU, RAM and voltage are, of course, actively cooled. An extremely fine microstructure situated right above the GPU ensures a fast transfer of heat into the coolant. Combined with a reduced residual base thickness, optimal cooling performance is achieved.

All channels are constructed as wide as possible to keep flow resistance to a minimum. This includes the connection block, which features four G1/4” threads for various connection options.

The material selection is just as free of compromise. The water bearing parts are made from ultra-pure electrolytic copper, the cover is made from stainless steel, and the connection block from industrial grade plastic (POM). Uncovered copper surfaces on the cooler’s top are covered with a clear varnish to prevent staining (oxidation).

The top of the “acrylic edition” uses high-quality cast acrylic glass (GS), which features better surface quality and resilience compared to cheap extruded acrylic glass (XT). Additionally, it is less likely to react with additives, and reduces the risk of micro fractures.

Mounting the cooler is easy as well, partly due to isolating stand-offs in all relevant areas. Pre-cut thermal pads for RAM and voltage regulators are included, just as are an Allen-key and two sealing plugs for unused threads.

Fans of multi-GPU-setups (CF/SLI) may use optional dual- and multi-interconnects to connect several graphic card coolers with each other. Those replace the pre-installed connection blocks.

This cooler is designed for cards using the reference-PCB from the GPU-vendor (AMD/NVIDIA). It might not fit on custom-designs from graphic card manufacturers.
