Excellent AIO for high TDP CPU's - if you can get it to fit
Upgraded system from Ryzen 5900X to 9900X. I don't overclock or game much, but 9900X set for higher TDP in BIOS. Initially reused old 240mm AIO (Corsair H100i Pro). Idle temp was ~50 C and 95+ C under heavy video editing with some throttling - needed to upgrade AIO too.Pros:Fantastic price of $86 can't be beat.Same system with 280mm Arctic idles in high 30's C and only hits mid-high 70's C under same load. That's 20C cooler under load! and no throttling.Supplied fans cool fantastically, yet can barely be heard under full load (1650 rpm)The Arctic components are impressively built. All parts HD and well finished. The AMD mounting was easy to install. Out of box everything setup for top of case install - nothing to change.Minor Cons:No install documentation provided - Web only and cannot be downloaded - had to view on another device during install.My case was "approved" (Corsair 4000D Airflow), but everything was very tight. Fan wires and memory modules inaccessible after radiator in place.Hoses are stiff - had to restrain with big tie wrap to allow case door to be put back.Pump speed reporting whacky - out of box showed 4000-4800 rpm? Had to dial-in a 0.6 adj factor to get readings to 2800 max.If it will fit, highly recommend this AIO for hot CPUs

Cools great!
Cools my 5700X just fine, for idle it goes from 34C at first boot up and 40C after a few hours and after some games. Games are only ever 65C, even on the most demanding games I have. Super quiet, my bedroom fan is louder than my PC now lol.Real pain to install though when replacing an old AIO, but runs great once you get it started.

Bueno pero no hace milagros.
Tengo un Ryzen 7 5800x procesador bastante calientito, lo enfriaba con aire con un DeepCool AK620 y la verdad no iba mal, la temperatura en juegos se mantenía en 80 grados celcius y en sesiones de trabajo si llegaba a los 90 grados, entonces vi que este enfriador líquido acababa de salir y que su antigua versión había sido muy buena y decidí probarlo.Y pues la verdad no hubo mucho cambio, las temperaturas bajaron entre 3 y 5 grados ya con la curva de enfriamiento ajustada, el ruido cambio eso si no tiene comparación esta madre es mucho más silenciosa qué un enfriador de aire.Una cosa que no tome en cuenta fueron las medidas, me confíe por que tengo un Corsair 5000D y pensé que me sobraria espacio y no fue así, el radiador no entro en la parte de arriba, choca con los disipadores de la MB entonces tube qué colocarlo en la parte frontal usando métodos de ajuste a la Mexicana y quedo perfecto, tons el consejo es que revises bien las medidas sino quieres tener problemas de instalación.Cha-chauu...

quiet and impressive
Just installed today after my nzxt x73 just stopped circulating the water. already rma'd that thing once before as well.Installing this with the included mx-6 paste has my 5950x running at less than 60c on a full multicore cinebench run @ 3.8-3.9ghz all core, and around 68c on single threaded cinebench. These are both with reasonable curves set for the fans and pump, erring on the side of it being quiet. I'm sure it would be even better at with a more aggressive curve.This is the first time I've seen my processor hit 4.9ghz on a single core since I got it in 2021, and that's without undervolting.I have never had temps this reasonable, I honestly chocked it up to the 5950x just being hot.I think the offset mounting really makes a difference, and the vrm cooler is a nice touch.My only complaint is that it is a little bit tricky to mount by yourself. It's very easy to push the backplate off when adding the bracket, and the spring tensioned two screw design isn't the simplest, but I did get it on without making a mess of the paste.The pump is essentially inaudible at 50% speed, and the fans at full speed are so much quieter than my x73 was. They do hit a lower peak rpm, but they are clearly moving the heat through the rad, which is also like twice as thick as the x73. I do sort of miss having a coolant temp reading, but hey, the less software the better.
