Box, Contents & Bundle
The box is 30% smaller than typical boxes hosting 360 AIOs and provides good protection. Everything is neatly arranged at its internals, and the bundle is rich!
The ARGB hub will make your life way easier during cable management.
The provided bundle is rich, as shown in the photo above.
Photos of the fully assembled AIO. The amount of cables leaving from the fans is intimidating. The radiator has the inscription “Design by Cooler Master” on it. CM is among the few brands with cooling design teams and manufacturing lines. The radiator might have a slim profile, but it has 22 FPI (fins per inch), so fans with high static pressure are required for optimal performance, like the ones that CM packed with this product.
The block, made by CM, includes a high-speed pump that can reach up to 10,000 RPM (Note: this is a bug of the pump’s circuit; it reports 3x the speed. The true speed is 3300RPM±10%)! Despite the high speeds, CM claims the pump can survive up to 210,000h! The sticker at the block’s base helps you install the thermal paste more easily. I prefer to apply thermal paste on the CPU’s heat spreader, not the block. The cover of the block is lit by ARGB lighting, and you can personalize it with your 3D designs if you want.
So it basically decimated everything in noise to performance? How much of this do you think is due to the fans? They look very interesting with how fast 3 of them are managing to spin at given noise targets, especially through a radiator that tends to amplify noise. Regardless almost definitely the new best argb 120mm fans. Any chance you could try testing them alone, just for curiosity sake?
The fans play a significant role in the increased performance because they have notably higher speeds at given noise levels than the competition. I have several other reviews to finish, so I don’t believe I will find time to try these fans in other AIOs.
