Thermaltake Big Water CL-W0005

The Big Water is another water-cooling system from Thermaltake in this review. Unlike the Rocket, it is a classic system without passive radiators or other innovations. The box is rather small and has a cut-out for us to see its contents.

This side window is mostly a decorative element since you can only see the fan of the radiator and part of the water-block with the pump. So, the potential buyer can’t examine the components thoroughly through this window. But I can just open it and take a close look at each component:

You’ve already seen the same pump, water-block and fasteners in the previous section, so I won’t repeat myself again. New in this system is the expansion tank:

Beyond doubt, it is a very useful thing, the most convenient way to fill the system and control the amount of liquid in it. The quality of manufacture is like that of the pump – the same material (plastic) and a similar design of the label. You can fasten the tank in any place inside the system case:

The fastening plate saves you the trouble of finding a suitable place. The configuration of the holes in the plate allows to secure the tank anywhere in the case with the help of screws or ordinary plastic braces.
