Yeah, but it's not cheap is it? Over £100 where I last looked.

zoomee · 7 May 2011 at 00:17

Both PRO and XT are over £100!

PRO about £110 - XT about £140

tbh I don't like capacitive touch buttons, so prefer the PRO model.

If only OCuk stocked them.......

Certainly is very expensive however the XT comes with the keyboard and has a more stylish appearence imo. I dont like buttons >.<

XT Model has the touch buttons and the heatsink

stock availability would probably be an issue at the moment. i have tried to get one for myself recently and they are like hens teeth.

i will have a chat with Nath on monday for you guys and see if we have plans to get them in.

I would be interested in all the accessories that go with the aqua computer. Aquatube ....... It's one thing controlling the fans but I would like all the bling too.

That looks incredible!

Do want, but one thing...

Yo dawg I heard you like water-cooling so I put water-cooling in your water-cooling so you can overclock your overclock!

Thanks dude

The PRO model does come with the keyboard - theres a competitor site (No names mentioned lol, which specialises in watercooling) who have it in stock - and it states quite clearly the keyboard is included

- Just a shame they are pretty expensive @ £109 just for the PRO model....

Actually the price is very good compared to the 4. Don't expect the price to drop.

Edit:

Further confirmation for the sight impaired.
http://forum.aquacomputer.de/images-ac/aquaero_5_eng.pdf
It quite clearly states that the keyboard is "optional" in the PRO column.

Only 1 online shop is saying the pro comes with the remote and it quite clearly has been miswritten. Not the first time for this site may I add...

zoomee · 8 May 2011 at 15:22

Well that one UK retailor is what I'm going by as no1 else seems to have it in stock.... - hence my question to the mod asking to confirm it earlier.

No need to be arsey about it dude. To be precise you missed off the fact the XT model also has the heatsink

Thanks for the confirmation anyhoo - remote is only £13

and I don't like the capacitive buttons!

EDIT: Couldn't wait - Sorry OCuk - My PRO model arrives tommorow.

zoomee · 13 May 2011 at 16:46

Been using it for a couple of days now and I can honestly say this is one of the best compliments anyone can make to a watercooling setup!.

Slowed my GT's down to 1000RPM (7.8v) and I can't hear them at all now - with no loss of cooling performance. Great tool for monitoring water temperature and flow without having to be able to look inside the PC.

mine lands next week ......resulting in the retirement of my Aquaero 4

zoomee · 14 May 2011 at 10:11

Just a shame the Aquasuite 2012 software isn't released until next week

Any reason to retire your 4 other than bling?

Looking for an excuse to buy one

UrbanTerror · 14 May 2011 at 12:59

Very nice indeed :cool:

How is the assembly? Can you describe the steps you went through to install? I'm thinking about retiring my Zalman fan controller and Silent Eagles for some GT's and the Aquaero 5 PRO.

EDIT, whats the difference between the normal and pro version? Is it worth it? Also, can the Aquaero 5 handle 2 loops?

Its worth it on the 4 so the 5 should be even better. You will need inline temp sensors and the system will adjust the fans to match the target temp. If you want the lowest noise and best performance this is the way to go.
