XSPC RayStorm Pro CPU Waterblock Review

The Box and Packaging

The package comes with all the fittings including LGA 1150, 1151, 1155, 1156, 1366, 2011 and 2011-3. Our reseller was kind enough to supply us with one extra orange LED and as well as one extra UV LED.

It is supplied with mounting hardware, 1150/1151/1155/1156, and 1366 backplates, twin white LED, allen key, and K3 thermal paste.

 

A Closer Look

The XSPC Raystorm Pro waterblock is made from a solid from pure copper base that’s been CNC machined cut. It comes with a solid aluminium bracket with acrylic inserts and 2 x 3mm LED holes, which allows the LED to shine through.

 

Installation

Installation of the XSPC Raystorm Pro waterblock was surprisingly simple. All I had to do was to mount the four long 2011-3 screws to each corner of the LGA 2011-3 processor socket. Next, we placed and mounted the entire waterblock over the processor socket, making sure that the the fittings are passed through the aluminium bracket at each corner.

A plastic and metal washer are placed at each corner, and then the included springs goes on top. A screw cap is then mounted and tightened accordingly.
