Common Applications

The Taikonaut commemorative edition is offered as LTSE-04I for Intel and LTSEA-04N for AMD, both using a nickel-plated pure-copper base with a micro-waterway cold plate and an acrylic or POM top depending on variant. LRC 2.0 5V 3-pin addressable RGB lights the top and syncs with motherboard A-RGB headers. Intel mounting covers LGA 1150/1151/1155/1156/1200/1700/2011/2066; AMD mounting covers AM3, AM4, and AM5 for Ryzen 3/5/7/9. Ports are G1/4. As with every micro-waterway block, install an inline filter and watch inlet/outlet orientation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Difference between LTSE-04I and LTSEA-04N?

A: LTSE-04I is the Intel version covering LGA 115x/1200/1700/2011/2066. LTSEA-04N is the AMD version covering AM3/AM4/AM5 Ryzen 3/5/7/9.

Q: What is the cold plate made of?

A: Pure copper that is nickel-plated to resist oxidation and tarnish.

Q: Acrylic or POM top?

A: Both top variants exist under this family. Acrylic is transparent and shows the lighting; POM is opaque, tougher, and more resistant to micro-cracking from over-tightened fittings.

Q: What RGB standard does it use?

A: LRC 2.0 5V 3-pin addressable RGB. Do not plug it into a 12V 4-pin header, as that will burn the LEDs.

Q: What thread are the ports?

A: Standard G1/4 inlet and outlet.
