Phanteks has added a reservoir to their Glacier lineup of watercooling products. The R160, and its taller brother, the R220 come with a frosted acrylic body and a black, sandblasted aluminum heatsink on the back. Also included is an integrated pump top for the Laing DDC.

Phanteks generally impressed with their custom watercooling product lineup, in particular with both the GPU water block and recently tested CPU water block. They have been expanding quickly on top of those with an offering of fittings, including ones for both hard and soft tubing, as well as adapters, extensions, and stop plugs. One of the missing items in their lineup was a reservoir, and a reservoir with an integrated pump top would be all the better. As with everything else in this field, carving out a unique identity is harder than ever before, but Phanteks thinks they have something capable of it and more. Enter then the Glacier R160 (and also the R220), and thanks to Phanteks for providing a review sample for TechPowerUp.
