The Raystorm CPU Block
Taking the heat away from the CPU to the radiator is obviously really important and it even has the “in” port clearly labelled to make sure you get it right. XSPC has included a Raystorm CPU block with both Intel and AMD mounting kits so if you switch sockets later on, chances are that you can move the cooling platform across to without buying anything else – nice on the wallet. Not only is the CPU block improved in terms of performance from previous models but it’s been given an aesthetically pleasing mounting kit that accommodates LEDs as well. In our testing we tried out the Blue, Green, and UV lighting options.
