Crystalmark is a useful benchmark to measure theoretical performance levels of hard drives and SSD’s. We are using V3.0.1 x64. We test the Samsung 840 Evo Solid State Drive, and the Seagate mechanical drive.


Performance is exactly as we would expect. The Samsung 840 Evo Solid State drives are fantastic. The mechanical drive is as good as we would hope, averaging around 190 MB/s sequential read and write speeds.


ATTO performance mirrors the CrystalDiskMark tests. Under real world conditions, the system boots up fast and is snappy when loading programs.

That big bubble tho…
I think with the size (or lack there of) of this build; I’d be using 3/8″ tubing, to make sure there’s no chance of kinks forming along some of those tight bends.
Also; it looks to have a DDC pump, if that’s the case, how much airflow is it actually going to get before it overheats in that little corner of the chassis?
I do like the fact that the system comes with a custom loop instead of one of those (awful) AIO systems.
