Installation
The cooler’s installation is not challenging, but you must look at the instructions provided first. Depending on the socket type, you will use the corresponding mounting hardware. You must remove the pre-installed plastic brackets for AMD sockets and use the stock backplate. For Intel sockets, you will use one of the provided backplates.
The cooler installed on my bench system. I made a mess with the thermal paste, I know. But it is better to have more than less!

Hi thanks for the review.
I hesitate between CM Atmos and the EK Water Blocks EK-Nucleus CR360 Dark version.
The fans are not RGB, the performance should be better?
Both are very good. If I remember correctly the Atmos is slightly better in performance, but I like the true daisy chain of the Nucleus fans.
In the future it could also be nice to see an evaluation of pump noise. I’ve read that at lower noise levels, the pump is often the most loudly perceived component of an AIO. The pump is also impossible to swap, while fans can be mixed and matched.
Thank you for the great review!
yeah we check pump noise. If we find any issues there, we mention them in the review.
