Fractal Design Kelvin S24

anyone looked at this? whats there thoughts?
I really fancy one as an upgrade to my H80i as through time I could extend it to include a gpu block or a bigger radiator

Does not seem bad, have a look at the review hexus gave it, copper radiator aswell.

Sounded very very good (Especially with a 360 Rad option) until I read the bit about "The pumps hums, all the time and would not be good in a silent pc design)

Hmm, need more info.

was discussing this cooler with moraytech earlier as he has one in a project rig hes doing at the moment.
I asked him if the pump was noisy.
he says
"certainly not noticeable in a case. i more or less hear the fans than anything else."

so that sounds good to me.. Im hoping OC will stock these soon Ive asked so waiting on a reply.

if not I might need to go elsewhere for it
I really do fancy one

Can you not borrow it just for a couple of hours and do a review of it and see if its better than the h80 you got.

sadly hes not around the corner. hes about 100 miles away. looking at the reviews though it performs better than the H100i

Ohh thought they was close and yes it does look like its better than the h100i.

Also the rad is made of copper.

yea still thinking on giving it a go. the swiftech also are able to be upgraded but with the look of the radiator and reservoir on it it would need to be top mounted

Yeah go for the s24 as looks better aswell.
