What customers say
This Bykski Distro Plate earns high praise primarily for its aesthetic appeal and functional utility in small form factor builds. Users consistently note how the design dramatically simplifies complex tubing runs, transforming cluttered interiors into visually stunning showcases. The robust PMMA construction and precise machining facilitate straightforward, leak-free assembly. A major highlight is the integrated 5V Addressable RGB lighting, which users love for its vibrant illumination and easy synchronization with motherboard ecosystems, adding significant flair. While the initial investment is notable, the plate offers strong value by successfully bridging high-end looks with streamlined performance for dedicated enthusiasts. Compatibility planning is sometimes needed due to its specific dimensions.
Know before you buy
No, this distro plate is case-specific. You must ensure your specific PC case model is listed as compatible with the RGV-TL-G1 before purchasing to ensure the mounting points and dimensions align correctly.
No, fittings are not included. You will need to purchase your own G1/4" threaded fittings separately, which are compatible with both soft and rigid tubing depending on your loop design.
The plate features a standard 5v Addressable RGB (RBW) connector. This can be plugged directly into a compatible 5v ARGB header on your motherboard or into a dedicated lighting controller.
The plate is constructed from PMMA, also known as acrylic. It is a durable, high-clarity material commonly used in water cooling components for its resistance to stress and excellent aesthetic transparency.
The Tiny Whale G1 acts as a distribution manifold to simplify your loop routing. Depending on your specific build, you may still need to integrate a pump elsewhere in your loop, as this plate is primarily designed for routing rather than housing a pump.
