Know before you buy
This water block is compatible with Intel LGA 1150, 1200, 1700, and 1851 sockets.
No, the HEATKILLER IV PRO does not feature integrated RGB lighting. It is designed with a focus on pure thermal performance and a minimalist aesthetic.
Yes, the block features a 25mm port distance, which is specifically designed to provide enough clearance for most large-diameter compression fittings.
The system uses a pre-assembled mounting mechanism that allows you to secure the block to the motherboard without needing extra tools, making the installation process significantly faster and less prone to errors.
The block is made from high-quality pure copper, which is the industry standard for thermal conductivity. To prevent corrosion, ensure you use a high-quality coolant with anti-corrosive additives in your custom loop.
The HEATKILLER IV PRO utilizes thinner cooling fins to increase the total surface area for heat dissipation and features an optimized internal flow path that improves overall coolant circulation compared to previous generations.
