is it good and how loud are the fans?
I've never had liquid cooling and I'm scared. But these days it's just about as straightforward as air cooling right?
Yea, super simple.
They're sealed. You'll never see the fluid.
Perfect. They never see it coming…
Only when something goes bad which is always a possibility, unlikely though.
how they divide tiers? lol theres tier 10 haha
On a modern keyboard, they'd have to use the "/" key…
umm doesnt it fall into tier 3?
Damn, sorry, I must have been unconscious after hours of work today.
Most 240mm AIO in Tier 3, i guess it should perform better than most of them, right? Especially it has 10 Tiers in total?
i'm unsure if this is good enough for the latest CPU
What else is there beyond a 360 AIO that isn't custom?
420mm
I have literally never seen this but I googled it and it's pretty common. Talk about a blindspot.
Fan and pump quality make difference
well accounting to Asetek， this is one of their products, it's a great price for an Asetek 360 aio
https://www.asetek.com/liquid-cooling/gaming-enthusiasts/cpu…I bought one.. hopefully they go ok for my new Intel Core i5-13600KF.
Hopefully can lock the cores to their 5Ghz speed.
i think this is enough for it even 13700k.
I heard 13900 k can't be covered with some 360 AIO
Can't even get cooled by a 420 apparently….i think I heard Steve from HU mention it in his review.
300W means heat, a whole lot of it.
BTW it will be fine if you are not full loading the CPU at all time.
@solacens: Oh completely understand but it was shocking to see no matter the cooler it couldn't be cooled enough to stop it from throttling. I thought it was a great review to demonstrate how hot this thing is.
To me you test with a 240mm AIO and the performance you get, throttling and all, is the performance you report. Trying to up the cooling spec to flatter the room heaters ignores that nobody sane is going to use extreme cooling, or accept massive fan noise.
Even the 13700k thermal throttles after a few minutes at most, and the 13900k after a few seconds. AMD seem to have the whole efficiency/control power and performance much more under control, actually giving you what you paid for.
Leave the massive radiators for the cars - this is all getting very silly.
@sane: Definitely agree, but I guess it's the reviewer's job to also specify what a minimum requirement for cooling is and what the consumer should expect.
Still pretty crazy this is the norm moving forward when we are looking at halo products… I still think AMD really screwed up with their platform pricing.. Especially the MB costs (ignoring DDR5 as that's not in their control)… CPU costs will come down over time but if the MB's dont become reasonable quickly.. they are going to lose the ground they were making.
@scud70: I do wonder if AMD will launch Zen 4 chiplets in an AM4/DDR4 package, for the low end. We know they can technically do it (it was planned but dropped), and it would be the easiest way to meet the Intel wins at the low end driven by the costs of PCIe Gen 5 and DDR5 and intel avoiding them.
6 or 8 core Zen4 chiplet, with 3D cache stacking, and the old I/O die in an AM4 package and a $120 MB could be sold for under the Intel prices and still keep most of the performance.
And since they jumped from 5000 to 7000, they could use those 6000 numbers if they wanted to.
Think you will need to pick up the additional LGA1700 kit too to make it fit
Can one of these be used as a gpu cooler?
No
Looks like it's an asetek pump, so you should be able to use it with the Kraken on select GPU's.

Hot deal, dealing hot.
It is worth about It.
