Thermalright Aqua Elite 360 White V3 Aio Water Cooling, 360 Liquid Cooling Row, ARGB PWM Cooler Fans, for Intel LGA1150/1151/1155/1156/1200/2011/1700,AMD:AM4/AM5, PC Cooler Aio

(Update1 - I found that room temp affects CPU temp exponentially more than it did when I was air cooling, so the figures below are not even accurate. It's been cooler in the room with the PC and it runs even cooler than I imagined it could. No issues, no weird noises. Haven't been out of the 50's C range in a week. Games just aren't anything to it. Definitely happy with this AIO.)Super simple installation on my AM4 rig with a 5900x. I was never a huge believer in water cooling making that much of a difference over a quality air cooler... but I was PLEASANTLY surprised to see just how much better this AIO handles the 5900x vs the Fuma 2 Rev B I had on it.I'm talking hitting 90C @ 200 watts on the Fuma 2 and now 80C on the AIO. Or 70C at 170 watts on the Fuma 2 and now 66C on the AIO.These temps in particular are important because they are where you will see either mild or extreme throttling (mild @ 70C or extreme at 90C).And in games? Pshhh... I was usually averaging 58C-62C max and today, in a game that would normally push me to 62C on the Fuma 2 Rev B, I was running at 52-54C!I used a 4-1 aRGB splitter on my Asus B550-F Gaming Wi-Fi II, had to install Asus Armoury Crate and it detected everything just fine. So I have full control over all the lighting effects and everything. This board, unfortunately, only has 1x aRGB plug and 2x 12v RGB plugs, which I don't use those older ones at all. And a single aRGB plug can handle 4x lighting controls so this worked out. 3x on the fans and 1x on the pump.I didn't really care about the lights, I cared about he value for money and the amazing performance I was seeing in reviews.If anything goes wrong or if it "wears out" in 3 years, I'll be buying from them, again. Seriously. The base plate to the CPU is making AMAZING contact. I don't even have my fans running hard. My temps listed in games have them running at 1000-1100RPM.I wish I went with this AIO a long time ago. Seriously, I don't think you can beat this for the money, nor is it worth it to double the price for a "possible" 3C lower temp at 250 watts lol.Dunno if I typed this in here already... but my only real issue is that the fans/pump lights are aRGB Gen 1 instead of Gen 2. BUT... everything LOOKS great, anyways, so who am I to complain. I'd rather have had the extra lighting control but honestly, it's doing everything I'm asking of it lol.

I’ve had this in my PC for around a month, and installed it for my r5 7600x (Ik it’s overkill but I wanted the look and ability to upgrade to a r7 in the future). It was a fairly easy installation, and it looks great. It keeps my CPU cool at under 50°C under load, so the performance is good. I keep it on the standard preset, so the fans are REALLY quiet. If you set it to turbo or higher it will be louder, but I’ve seen no need to have the fans run that high. For around $60 it’s an amazing budget option.

I needed a replacement cooler for my aging computer, and finding an LGA1200 compatible AIO was leaving me with few reasonably priced options. This cooler is a no frills replacement, but works amazingly well. The adapter hardware all fit the CPU socket perfectly and all the radiator mounting hardware fit first try. The coolant lines are plenty long, but not overly so.The fans can daisy chain for PWM and for RGB, but there is also an included fan hub for PWM if that suits you better. For cable management, I used the hub. Even on my older MOBO the RGB still connected and works fine, with a relatively close color match.Minor considerations:First, because the no-frills nature of the AIO, the pump and the fans are not connected together for PWM/Power, but the RGB's are. So you run the pump PWM to the pump header on the motherboard, the fans (or the included fan hub) connect to the CPU fan header. Then all the RGBs connect in a daisy chain. This works really well, but requires a bit of extra cable management, and in my case I needed to run the RGB cable along the coolant lines, there was plenty of length, but it took a few versions to get right.Second, I needed to turn on and set up the fan control in the BIOS, otherwise the radiator fans turn on at full speed for several minutes at each startup before the system begins gradually slowing them down. This is likely a problem unique to my older setup though, and surely any newer setup would not have this issue.Lastly, I have never used a thermal interface compound like this before, it is like very soft putty rather than grease, and I was having trouble spreading it according to the directions. I eventually gave up and did a classic "Five Dots" method which seems to have done the trick.Final Verdict: Ultimately, I'm very happy with this cooler. It is a basic setup, but within that scope, it is simple to install, incredibly versatile, and my operating temps are now back down in the mid 30's.

This might be the best bang-for-your-buck AIO in the market (from a somewhat reputable brand). I recently upgraded to the 5800X3D, which is a hotter running CPU (vs. 3700X) and my old 120mm AIO was struggling to keep temps under 70°C under load. Since I was also upgrading the case which supports top 360mm radiator mount, I decided to go for a 360mm AIO. To my surprise, I found many brands charging upwards of $200 for 360mm AIOs, which I think is just absurd. I've known Thermalright from their fans being the best value for money in the industry so I thought to give their AIO a shot as well.The AIO is very well built with sleeved tubes and heavy-weight parts. The pump housing does feel plastic-y but doesn't feel cheap. Mounting to my AM4 motherboard was really easy - just 2 screws into the provided bracket.In terms of performance, it's able to keep my 5800X3D at 35-40°C under normal operations and at ~50°C under load and hours of gaming. Fans and pump are very quiet too; you only hear some coolant swishing sound at start-up like with all AIOs.I would highly recommend giving these a try. At $55-60, even if it breaks after 2 years, you can replace these 3 times and it'll still cost you less than a NZXT 360mm AIO.

Very nice and economical set of fans
