CNG Connect is a technology where in the user can add a GPU Block to the loop, it does not stop there, you can also add a Reservoir or even a another RAD.
As for Warranty, my product's have a 5 year warranty, we assure you there will be no Leakage's from our side, all unit are tested for Leakage free operation.
So we will not cover for any damage to other hardware, also could you link me as to where Corsair cover's for such type of incident, coz i know their Warrant Page by Heart and it isn't stated there :)

Also there is no full-form for SVG, just think it like EVGA or PNY :p

I read somewhere that corsair provides such warranty if i am wrong sorry and so will you produce gpu ,ram,rads&reservoirs to go with cng connect

I do not know if it is covered under warranty but Corsair replaced a guy's setup after the pump/block just fried. The thing was in HardOCP's forums.

What thermal paste are you shipping those closed blocks with? Are there any 3rd parties involved in design and component supplies, or is everything done independently?

Yup i did read that a week ago, according to the 80-way Thermal Grease Guide the Shin Etsu is a Grade A TIM and is only 0.2 degree Celsius more than the top of the list

I know the shin-etsu's 7783D is not a bad compound, but personally, I cant justify the cost. after the mid-rangers, there is hardly any benefit. what benefits you most is the flow rate, the fan pressure and airflow.

Justify the cost of what ?
Extreme Gamer
Mar 7, 2012 at 11:10 PM
the cost/gram of the paste. Metal pastes(keep forgetting the name, and its not indigo xtreme) give better results at lower cost.

1 gram of 7783D for $7 vs. 5g of Prolimatech PK-1 for $11. I would choose the latter.

Thats a 7783D? So you get the thing in bulk and fill your own syringes? But still, 1 gram of paste is good for only one proper application, especially on processors like the LGA 1366 and 2011 ones.

Tell me the tubing width of your kits and the thread size (I hope its G 1/4" because that is the standard followed).

Yup 7783D, and 1g gives 3 applications, as for tubing size its a 6mm ID and G1/4 thread

6mm ID is tiny. Does the setup allow for fitting and tubing replacement?

That does not answer my question. I asked if they are replaceable. If I was to buy your parts, I'd want even sized tubing across the loop (when combined with my current setup).

If I buy your 360Rad kit, I'd have to remove the CPU block and tubing for it to be of any use (to combine with my current setup to cool GPUs). Your 360 Rad would probably be the cheaper solution for me- i'd only have to import GPU blocks.

So that is why I wanted to know if the tubing and nozzles are replaceable.

Ohh ok get it now, yes the RAD has a G 1/4" Thread so any standard fitting can be put on it, but why do you think it will be a cheaper solution, the HOC 60 will cost at least Rs.7500

Good radiators from outside cost more after including shipping and customs. Besides that, there is limited number of sites due to the Paypal mafia.

Faun is a reputed member here and has good insight into pc hardware. He has a venomous X (probably) and the good thing is he too is from pune.

Since your coolers are new, he can test them and write a review here which will definitely be neutral and unbiased. This way more and more people will get feedback which is good for you.

So i think you can contact faun and let him test your cooler. He has 2500k-z68 combo and you can expect some good results. :)

very few people use liquid coolers of the entire PC user base. So if you are just concentrating upon liquid coolers then you may have to wait(that is not good IMO for business) till establishment of your name.

Mostly hardcore gamers go for closed loop liquid coolers, among these gamers the very few with big pockets go for exotic liquid coolers with custom loop.

I would suggest to reduce your plan timeline from 2~3 yrs to 1 yr for entering into other products lineup.

Hey nikolain Great Job buddy :clap2:
I just read the review from your site and ur products seems awesome in performance in comparison to Corsair.

You know these coolers really look alike Corsair expect CNG Connect Feature. To make a noise about product or say to establish any product you can't rely only on pure performance; you have to be different in few aspect i.e. Features (which you have - CNG Connect), Price (which also u have - pretty attractive) and Looks (which u don't have - same as Corsair).

Having said that, just to add some 'Mad-Idea' - why don't u try these product in White Color.
I think it's gonna be Stunning in White Color and It will make it's own style statement.

Think about it

Again Great Work !!!!

Yup correct Flipkart asked me for 70% margin, i said forget it.
Current Corsair H80 & H100 prices are Rs.6000 & Rs.7000 that too without shipping respectively, while HOC20 & HOC40 cost Rs.5000 & Rs.6200 with free shipping respectively, So my prices are certainly good. :)
