DeepCoolGammaxx L360 V2, AIO Liquid CPU Cooler, Anti-Leak Technology Inside, SYNC RGB Waterblock and 3 x 120mm RGB Fans, Controlled by Motherboard with 12V 4 Pin RGB Header and Cable Controller

I have a new PC with a 12 core AMD processor so I thought I'd try this outI wanted a case with some room, so I bought a Thermal Take, that's another storyThe install for is a bit fiddly, but I eventually found the long slots on the top of the PC case gave the best fitWhich way around do the fans Go? well after a few tests I decided to get them to extract. A little arrow showing air flow direction would have helpedConnecting all this up to the Mother board was a real pain, the cables are very thin and each fan and it's LED had to be connected up so not for the faint hearted, also put the cables towards the back.The Motherboard I bought is an ASUS it has the LED, IO pump and Fan connections, so I connected these up and rechecked this a few times to make sure. The IO pump runs at full speed, so its important to get this rightOn Power up, LED lights changing, fans all workingSo onward to some stress testingPC rebooted?OK so whats upInstalled CPUID PC Idle CPU temp was at 31C, so happy with thatAll AMD software installed and running New Windows 10 installSo I ran Passmark OK that gave a reading of around 6400 but no PC rebootNext I thought I'd stress the cores, then I could see the issueThe CPU temp went to 80C then the PC rebootedSo this unit isn't cooling the CPU efficientlyI've now installed BES and limited all of the cores to 90% MAX this keeps the CPU at around 70Deg on full loadThere are 3 x 120 mm fans on the left side, 2 x 140 mm fans in the front, 1 x 140 mm fan at the rear and 3 x 120 mm fans in this unitOver all, not really impressed for a 3 fan water cooled unit

I purchased this on the basis of being the cheapest possible 360 AIO I could find to experiment with, as I have a very old case (some thermaltake from 2012 or so) that was not designed for radiators at all so I had to completely mod it (a bunch of metal sheet cutting and rivet drilling etc). Obviously, I did not install the radiator based on the manual as I had to design a custom mounting system for my old case. That being said, the system went from sounding like a jet engine almost all the time to almost whisper quiet, except when running heat torture tests via prime95 when it's audible but quite acceptable. If I could be bothered to change the fans for some pressure optimised ones for £10, it would probably be whisper quiet all the time.Compared to the wraith prism at the same-ish sound levels, it's between 15C and 40C cooler, depending on load. Cinebench r20 score went up by 3.1% while the computer is barely audible, mostly from the case fans. With similar noise levels (loud) the r20 scores go even higher and the 3700x can easily be overclocked to 4400mhz all cores but at 100% the fans on this AIO are loud (still not as loud as the wraith prism).Very pleased with the purchase, I'm definitely not spending twice as much on a "premium aio" even after I upgrade to a more recent case. At most, I'll get some pressure optimised low rpm fans at some point when I literally don't want to hear any sound coming from the case.

Cooling is efficient and enhances performance.

Bent pins in my new board when i was tighting it and i was very careful done it 100 times but this one just not sure its also very cumbersome if your dont have and xl tower if not good look craming it in to a mid tower

it works great

Great easy too set up keeps the i9 9900 super cool, easy to setup with the included brackets the RGB is good and syncs up with gigabyte fusion, I would recommend and if need be buy again.

Great piece of kit for the money and easy to install.

Great addition to my pcEasy install
