Pacific MX2 Ultra CPU Waterblock, 2.1 inch LCS Disaplay, Build in Water Temperature Senser, LGA 1700, CL-W332-CU00SW-A,Black

To be clear, this review is for the Thermaltake Pacific MX2 Ultra CPU Waterblock, 2.1 inch LCS Disaplay, Build in Water Temperature Senser, LGA 1700, CL-W332-CU00SW-A. The majority of the negative reviews are for different ThermalTake products - Look at the pictures included with their reviews. I bought this for my Asus Prime Z590-A motherboard & Intel i9-11900k processor. Installation was relatively easy, programming the software was easy as well. This water-block works well to control the extreme heat generated by the i9-11900k Processor. The information displayed on the LCS display is helpful to quickly monitor critical stats for system performance. It also looks great in the PC. It is a little pricey, but it is well made of premium material and should last the life of the computer.

This water block with the screen is a dream come true for my build. The only thing is the software could use text size and color updat for just text, other wise it's very good. So cool looking in any water cool loop.

I love this waterblock. It was easy to install, looks great, and cools great. No complaints at all about quality. HOWEVER, any water temp sensor I've ever ran in my systems has been used to control my fan speeds. There's no need to have your fans ramping up and down continuously on a closed water loop, yet here we are with a really killer looking unit that doesn't allow the temperature data to be read by any other software programs! On top of that, you can't do any type of fan control in their proprietary software (unless you have TT fans maybe, but I don't), so besides looking pretty and being able to read it, functionally it's a bit lacking. The other gripe I have is that the thermaltake software just EATS CPU usage. I'm running a 13900K and 4090 and it regularly is showing using upwards of 10% of my GPU. I instead have opted to upload my own image and remove the software. The only problem with this is it will ONLY display WATER temp in this configuration. If you want it to rotate through any other sensor temps such as CPU, GPU, RAM, etc, you have to run their software in the background. All in all I'm really satisfied with the product, but the software design and inability to allow any other fan/motherboard software to access the data from the sensor feels like a huge miss, especially when their own software doesn't do it.

Loco por ver como queda

This is a quality piece made with good materials and looks great in my water loop. Easy to install, especially with TT pacific 16mm OD fittings. The software on the other hand is terrible, the interface is terrible and it's very clunky. My biggest gripe is every time I try to load an image other than the default options on to the LCD display the program closes. I have tried using their recommended GIF's, following the 480x480 parameters for images, loading previous versions of software, deleting and re-installing, on and on. Still nothing. I am not a software wizard, this is all just a hobby and I play games. I just would like for it to work. So when it doesn't you get an average rating at best. I recently built my wifes computer also and used the new Corsair LCD upgrade for it's AIO, works like a dream. Do better Thermaltake. I have since determined working with TT service desk that I have a unit with a bad controller. My options are to breakdown my water loop, disassemble and remove water block and RMA or the even better option, I can pay again for another water block and they will credit my old one when I get it returned. Ask me what I am getting out of this deal? That's right, inconvenience, frustration, aggravation, etc. Thanks for nothing TT and it will be a while if ever before I work with you again. And lastly I appreciate you being sorry for the situation. That's helps a lot. AS

At least you don't need to buy new parts for the AM5.

Works like it should. Keeps my 14900 cool. Software is a little cheap. Works sometimes.

I bought the MX2 Ultra, with an important display, but the software is garbage. It constantly crashes. I have the latest update, and every time I boot, the CPU Temp display crashes and defaults to the background and liquid temp. Useless MX3 display. TT, fix this junk!
