Compare Deepcool LT520 Black and LS520
Comparing the Deepcool LT520 Black and Deepcool LS520, it can be noted that both devices are designed for processors and feature water cooling with a 240 mm radiator. Both use two 120 mm fans with hydrodynamic bearings and have similar parameters in terms of maximum speed and noise level. However, the LT520 Black has black fan blades, while the LS520 offers transparent blades, which may affect the system's visual design. It is also worth noting that the LS520 is slightly lighter, weighing 1305 g compared to 1504 g for the LT520 Black. Both devices support ARGB lighting and have multifunctional synchronization.

Glossary
Fan thickness
This parameter must be considered in the context of whether the fan will fit into the computer case. Standard case fans are available in the order of 25 mm in thickness. Low-profile coolers with a thickness of about 15 mm are designed for small-sized cases, where saving space is extremely important. Fans of large thickness (30-40 mm) boast high cooling efficiency due to the increased impeller dimensions. However, they are noisier than standard models at the same speed and do not always fit into the case normally, sometimes touching other components.
Static pressure
The maximum static air pressure generated by the fan during operation.
This parameter is measured as follows: if the fan is installed on a blind pipe, from which there is no air outlet, and turned on for blowing, then the pressure reached in the pipe will correspond to the static one. In fact, this parameter determines the overall efficiency of the fan: the higher the static pressure (ceteris paribus), the easier it is for the fan to “push” the required amount of air through a space with high resistance, for example, through narrow slots of a radiator or through a case full of components.
Also, this parameter is used for some specific calculations, however, these calculations are quite complex and, usually, are not necessary for an ordinary user — they are associated with nuances that are relevant mainly for computer enthusiasts. You can read more about this in special sources.

Socket
Pump size
The dimensions of the pump that the water cooling system is equipped with.
Most often, this parameter is indicated for all three dimensions: length, width and thickness (height). These dimensions determine two points: the space required to install the pump, and the diameter of its working part. With the first, everything is quite obvious; we only note that in some systems the pump simultaneously plays the role of a water block and is installed directly on the cooled component of the system, and it is there that there should be enough space. The diameter approximately corresponds to the length and width of the pump (or the smaller of these dimensions if they are not the same — for example, 55 mm in the model 60x55x43 mm). Some operating features depend on this parameter. So, the large diameter of the pump allows you to achieve the required performance at a relatively low rotation speed; the latter, in turn, reduces the noise level and increases the overall reliability of the structure. On the other hand, a large pump costs more and takes up more space.

Manufacturer's warranty
Manufacturer's warranty provided for this model.
In fact, this is the minimum service life promised by the manufacturer, provided that the operating rules are followed. Most often, the actual service life of the device turns out to be significantly longer than the guaranteed one. Among the modest indicators there are models with a 1-year or 2-year warranty, more serious models already have a 3-year warranty, and the most confident manufacturers give a 5-year or even 6-year warranty.
