Since both coolers are almost identical, we’ll be featuring just the LS520 for the closer look.
Included with this cooler are 120mm fans. These fans are PWM and capable of 500-2250 RPM and airflow of up to 85.85 CFM.
You’ll notice the cable coming from the fans is slightly different to the usual 3 or 4-pin. A 5v RGB connector is used instead and this can be daisy chained. So, each fan can connect to the other and even the pump can connect – meaning that just one cable needs to be connected to the motherboard.
Deepcool are calling the top section of the pump “infinity mirror pump”. This design is equipped with RGB LED lighting, and not only is the middle plate able to be rotated but there is an additional plate included so that you can fully customise with our own design.
For this new series of coolers Deepcool are using their new 4th Gen. pump which has improved an microchannel 3-phase motor which they are keen to claim will deliver excellent thermal performance.
On the bottom-side of the block, we can see the copper baseplate and pre-applied thermal paste. The circumference of this is unlikely to cater for larger CPUs which fall into the HEDT category, even though they are on the compatibility list.
One of the more obvious differences between each of the LS Series models is the radiator size, today we are looking at the 240mm and 360mm versions, pictured above is the LS520 (240mm). The tubing from this radiator is 410mm in length and there are two sets of clips to keep the tubing from twisting – small, but nice touch that helps!
