Hardware Great, Software OK
The great thing about this product is that it just works. Well, almost. I had to tweak some settings on my motherboard or the pump would start making scary noises, as it needs to pull a constant current instead of the variable current that was provided to it previously.
Cooling performance is awesome - I've got an extra Ghz out of my processor, with no stability issues, and this thing can take the heat.
Where it is really let down though is the software. The Windows software is... ok. It does the job, but is way too large and bulky when all I want to do is change the colour of the LED. The main problem is lack of Linux support, which requires me to boot up a VM with a USB passthrough whenever I want to change the settings. Please provide this NZXT, I wouldn't care if it was just some small command line utility - just something!
