Box, Contents & Bundle
The box has a photo of the AIO at its face, with the ARGB fans in action. Around the back you will find details on the product’s specifications.
The bundle includes the mounting hardware and an RGB control box through which you can manually adjust RGB lighting effects, some tube clips, a 24-pin adaptor to jump-start the AIO’s pump when needed for maintenance, a bottle with coolant, and a thermal grease tube.
The radiator is 38 mm thick and has a refill port. You will need lots of space in your chassis to accommodate it and its fans. The increased thickness increases its thermal capacity, offering lower CPU operating temperatures. The tubes are long enough at 400mm, but ideally, they should reach 450mm for maximum compatibility with large chassis.
Typically, the block hosts the cooling pump and has the necessary circuits to power the VRM fan and its RGB lighting. The fan’s cover can be rotated to change the logo orientation. Besides the ARGB lighting cable, a single power cable leaves from the block, meaning that the pump’s speed is connected to the VRM fan’s speed. This is not ideal since you might want to keep the pump’s speed at maximum while having the VRM fan spinning at mid-speed so as not to bother you with its noise. The block’s base is not large, so AMD’s Threadripper CPUs are not supported. Lastly, the tubes leaving the pump can be easily adjusted at an angle to meet your system’s requirements.
All three fans are daisy-chained together, so you can control them all using a single cable. The ARGB signal, along with the power and speed signals, passes through the same cable. It is highly convenient that the ARGB signal is also daisy-chained; otherwise, it would be a huge pain to have to deal with three separate cables.
