Output Noise & Fan(s) Speed
Noise Level @ 100% & 70% of Max Speed
Compared to the other cooling solutions I have evaluated, the AIO’s fans are noisy at 100% and 70% fan speed.
PWM Level @ Noise & RPM
Noise Level @ Fan Speed
The higher the RPM in these charts, the better! At 40 dBA, I have only three entries so far, and the Nucleus achieves first place.

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.
