This is a good deal. It performs better than I expected with 10700k overclocked to 5Ghz on all cores. Beats my Noctua NH-U14S by about 7-8C, which might not seem huge, but it’s enough to put this hot, overclocked CPU under 75C under load. My die can do 5.1Ghz on all cores, but it requires too much voltage (>1.35Vcore) and runs too hot (>85C) under load even with this AIO cooler.
Like all AIOs, installation takes time, but not really longer than a regular aftermarket air cooler.
My only concern is long term reliability as the build has more plastic than I’m comfortable with. But then again, it’s a 360mm AIO for under $100.
Update: I see they’ve raised the price by almost $20.00. Still worth it, but not as much now.
You see this referred to as a budget cooler but quality and performance wise it is far from budget.
Recently completed my first PC build for quite some time and the temps this keeps my 5600x when overclocked at are lovely.
Mid 30s when idle
60s under load
Would highly recommend and it looks the part as well. (if i do say so myself)
I’ve only had it for about 4 months and it’s burning already.
Great product however if you’re running an rgb 12v it doesn’t work but can still be plugged in and use a controller. I highly recommend it’s been keeping the cpu cool and works well.
Got the 360 snow edition as a temporary cooler whilst I done some research and it’s actually turned out to be fantastic. Great build quality, nice and quiet, looks great and temperatures are good. I’ve now decided to keep it and will be top mounting when the new case arrives. For the price it’s an absolute steal and I really can’t fault it at all. 10/10 budget aio.
I bought this water cooler for my first pc build. I like how quick it arrived, and after opening the box, I really like how the white color of the fans matches my build. It was really easy to install, and there are YouTube videos that will guide you step by step in installing this cooler if any problems arise. I bought this back in August, and I never experienced any problems since. However, I noticed with my choice of motherboard, I’m unable to control the RGB through the motherboard. I have to use the controller method instead. The package didn’t was missing the controller, but after messaging the seller, I was able to get a replacement easily. The customer service is really helpful and they acted quick. I recommend this cooler to any beginning builds or if you prefer a white themed pc.

What a amazing AIO for such a good value, easy to install only requires power from sata to pump, which is very very easy to install my little sister could do it. If you haven’t got argb on your motherboard just use the splitter for the fans and the rgb they provide with. It’s great I rate this aio 10/11 just as good as the Corsair h100i rgb platinum SE as my Corsair died on me after a years use!!!!, I would never use Corsair again. This is worth the money I really recommend! Idle temp is 30-35C, but when gaming the beast only hits 40-45 running a heavy game like cyberpunk. I am running a i7 4970k at 4.8 ghz and never has it hit above 50C. Awesome I am in love with it!
Pretty decent cooler for the price, connected the fans to the motherboard so I can control them from bios. With a bit of tweaking it keeps the cpu pretty cool.
Pros : Looks great in my case. I9-9900k overclocked to 5Ghz. Temperatures have yet to exceed 70c. (Prime95 and gaming) Fans makes a little noise under full load for long periods of time, but overall very quiet.
Cons: The software has to be restarted after computer goes to sleep.
Good value for the price, have been running it on my 3700x for 4 months now, no issues, doesn’t get above 50C during heavy gameplay. I also have yet to hear any kind of whine from the pump
So far so good been using for over a week now,
low noise , temps under full loads are very good.
Build Quality is amazing for a cheaper brand.
Would recommend.

The cooler does its job and the fans look nice. Perfect for a white build, although one of the fans lights stopped working after 4 months
It was easy to install and great at keeping my CPU temps low
Silenciosa, de muy buena calidad y sobretodo mantiene el procesador en temperaturas estables bajas bajo alta carga de trabajo. Recomendada
Good fans with RGB, and there quite to even when pushed hard, there PWM so can control them in relation to the pump which is also quite.
It performs literally the same as many other far more expensive AIOs, the pumps are all made by the same company anyway, usually asatek.
Its been installed over 4 months now on a machine that doesn’t get switched off and its doing a lovely job.
It was super easy to install, no issues whatsoever keeps CPU cool and RGB looks nice
Temps never go above 60C and runs very quiet 10/10 would recommend
This thing is just crazy good. And it’s so pretty! If anyone tries to tell you this stuff doesn’t work or is at all problematic, it’s likely that they got a defective unit. Mine is amazing.
I don’t know what warmth is. Super easy to install. I am still unsure of where the wires should be plugged in. The whole thing runs amazing. Temps dropped so well.
Much more quiet than the stock cooler that came with my 3600x
Cinebench/gaming temps don’t exceed 70c
Looks grea
Enjoy the product looks amazing, would only rate it a 4 out of 5 because the button that controls the rgb modes caught on fire. Luckily I was able to find a cheap replacement on new egg and got the rgb lights up in running.
Good quality , argb is cool, looks good with my white set up. No any problem.
Had lots of cables to deal with, but overall performs well. Using it in a Thermaltake Core P3 with a 10700K. Keeps the CPU around 75C under load.
The ID-Cooling Zoomflow 240X Snow AIO cooler is a great option if you are looking for a mainly white AIO cooler and at a good price (sub 100 as of this review). It looks good, feels decent enough and the ARGB fans work well without being too noisy and the ARGB effects look nice (I have mine synced with Gigabyte fusion software).
Note: If like me, you want all your fans to be the same (all case fans including those on the radiator) then you may be out of luck since the available options for case fans are slightly different but at least they are close. Take a look at the DF-12025-ARGB-TRIO-SNOW pack if you need 3 case fans with a similar (but not identical) look.
Sure it’s not keeping my CPU (i9 9900K) as cool as the likes of a Corsair platinum AIO but at the price differential you can’t really expect it to.
Amazing. Kept my I7 9700k (@4.7ghz) at 22degrees Celsius! Never seen a cooler this good. Highly recommend.
Somewhat easy to install. If you’ve installed a AIO then you know what to expect. Put this in the White Lian-Li Dynamic 011 not XL since don’t want anything with a case XL size and it matches better than I expected. On stock cooler my Ryzen 5 3600 was hitting 52 at idle. This AIO is keeping it at 36 idle.
Can’t believe all the wrong way people install AIO’s. I installed this vertical and if mounting vertical. Then the tubes should be at the bottom and if not. Your probably getting water noise and definitely shortening the life of the cooler. Not too mention could over time cause a leak. When the air at the top of the radiator gets pushed by water being caught up to the pump. What do you think happens with the pressure?
Mount Correctly or your picture looks like you don’t know what you are doing.

More than likely the best AIO anywhere near this price point. Thermals are extremely good and setup and installation is very simple. Do not fear for the quality at this price point, it is a great buy.
Installed correctly, but I get a bit of hum noise. Might be typical – this is my first AIO. I have the white 360mm, top mounted, fans set to exhaust. Not terrible, just not the silent I was expecting when the fans are at very low RPM. My pump is under the rad, not installed in a way air can pocket at rad outlet, so it’s not a gurgle. It’s not bad, but coming from a truly dead silent build, I notice it in a quiet room.
I’m running an I5 7600K at 4.4GHz so not a real aggressive overclock (stock is 3.8GHz). Was getting 34C idle, 70C stress test on the hyper 212 air cooler. I used arctic silver 5 instead of the included thermal compound and after several days and heat cycles did stress testing. For just web surfing, watching videos, MS Office apps, general low-demand stuff, it pretty much stays max of upper 30’s. Games I play aren’t the latest, most demanding (I’m still on a GTX 1060), but haven’t seen it much above 50C for any normal/gaming use. Have to use synthetic benchmark stress tests to get it higher. So stress testing with Intel tuning app, OCCT, Passmark, etc, I can’t get it over low 60’s C! Prime95 torture test is only thing I can heat my CPU up with now and even at that, mid-upper 60’s C is highest I can get in a 22C room. This is the big take away – my overclocked CPU during long torture tests of 4 cores @ 100%, I can’t even get it hot enough to turn the fans up! I’ll see a single core spike to like 68C for a second, but low-mid 60’s running Prime95 for > an hour is what it sustains. Again, my first AIO or attempt at liquid cooling so i don’t know that compares to big name brands, but I’m very pleased with it.
Based on reviews here talking about it falling off, I removed the thin black ID Cooling sticker before install. Can’t see it in my case anyway. But it seemed stuck on fine. Otherwise, packaged well, no leaks, included hardware is nice & plentiful, fan wires are generous length, rgb works as expected with included controller (I don’t have mobo aRGB header), slight hum at low speeds but not a hair dryer at max RPM.
I added a few pics. One shows the pump oriented 90 from initial install which i thought might help the hum noise (it didn’t). Others show real results during stress tests. The way the pump bracket works, you can orient the pump any way you want. I will note looking thru review pictures some are showing it mounted incorrectly and the instructions don’t really tell you NOT to do it wrong. You want it so the pump isn’t highest part of the loop AND the inlet/outlet of the rad isn’t highest either. You will mostly see that with front mounts. Think about where the air (no AIO is 100% full of liquid with no air at all) bubble is going to rise to in the closed loop. If that is in the pump or at the inlet/outlet barbs of the radiator, it is installed wrong. Best case is it gurgles some, worst case is total failure. Anyway, hard to mess that up with top mount. For front mount, just think “mount it higher, hoses down” and it’s fine. Most pics so far attached to thee reviews are correct, so you can scroll them and identify the “wrong” ones pretty easy.

This thing is awesome for the price, especially being white!
I have used many of these and have had no issues. Easy to install.
It’s a good product. Just keep in mind if you have a newer Mobo you need a 3 to 4 pin adapter since this AIO only supports 3 pin not 4 pin. Not a big deal. Only 20 dollars but its still something that would be nice to know before purchase.
Great cooler at a great price! Easy to install and pump nearly silent. Very good hydraulic tubes, braided with nylon and easy to bend.
Super easy to install looks better in person I love i
Right now is doing its job. Which is keeping my computer cool while I play. Fans make audible noise only on load but that’s it. So if your thinking about buying this, you should.
Good does the job used for 3600 overclocked to 4.2 temps max at around d 65-70
Fans are bright, quiet and feel well made. The water pump is near silent and temperatures around 70 fully load on a overclocked 6700k.
Used the included RGB controller and it worked perfectly
Would recommend this to anyone, at this price it’s performance is comparable to more expensive AIOs.
I couldnt be happier with this AIO. It keeps my temps very low on a Ryzen 3600. Easy to install and the rgb is very good. The fans run very quite, which is a nice surprise. I would recommend this to everyone. Price is right too.
Keep a Ryzen 9 3900x around 80C at full load. Compared to a 2 fan AIO it’s superior.. The 2 fan AIO was reaching to 92C. This processor runs extremely hot on Asrock’s b450 bios no matter what you do. I spread out the included thermal paste along with a dab of AS5 in the center for good measure. The included thermal paste is actually good and about equal to AS5. PBO enabled with scalar x10. It will float around 80C with scalar x10 enabled. Disabled it floats 75C with this 3 fan cooler. I replaced the stock fans as they are garbage. If you have the space go with the 3 fan version (replace the fans with higher RPM ones). The extra radiator length can reduce over 10 C in temperature. One star retracted because radiator fins came from manufacturer welded on 2 points too high so fans screws drive right into it. Otherwise no leaks and working so imperfect radiator fins are not worth an RMA as long as the water containing structure is in perfect shape. Fans would be good for case fans but not a radiator. Their max speed is 1500 RPM. You want atleast 1700 RPM fans but 1900 RPM fans even better. I purchased an extra 1700 rpm from noctua and another two 1800 rpm fans, which were included in my old 2 fan radiator. These fans are by far superior. If cooling a hot chip like the 3900x it will be necessary to replace the fans as they are junk and use them for case fans or backup case fans for the future. Besides misaligned rad fins are junky fans overall good choice, but if you have to replace the fans and buy more fans may as well get a different AIO in the higher price range. I think most buyers won’t have the radiator fins issue and I was just lucky.

I like the product… so far.. 2months running it i have no problems.
Feels good quality, super easy to install. The pump cames with two cables: RGB and SATA, wich it means the aio pump works at 100% all the time. Includes thermal paste, splitters for the fan. I really like how it matches with my setup color, there is no much white aio in the marketing.
**1/17/2022 Update**
Im still loving this AIO, ive made some changes. I switched out the old fans with the stock RGB fans. Ive added 2 Noctua Premium Quiet Slim Fan on the inside to have a Push/Pull combo. See New attached photos.

Quality construction. Clean attractive design. Cools 3900xt very well. Will buy another fir my next build.
No matter what people say this is a great cooler its always keeps me under 42c and is the quietest thing i ever heard id recommend buying their fans too because their static pressure is very good
Ive had this for about 2 weeks now i think. No additional software needed for the RGB lights. Fans are pretty silent. RGB colors match very well with my Strix Z490-A. 2 of 3 fan stickers are crooked so you can see them wobbly when theyre spinning. pump is very silent compared to the TT AIO i had before this one. Tubes are a bit longer than I’m used to but makes it perfect for my build. installation of the waterblock was more difficult than normal asetek pump blocks ive had before (corsair, thermaltake, zantec). alot more steps and weird holding and balancing the backplate since it does not have any type of sticky foam on it. the mount posts are not built in to the backplate so you have to thread them in. they are very long so you may need to actually remove the motherboard like i did to install the backplate. after all thats mounted its pretty straightforward. mounting the fans was kinda hard. one of the threads was already chowdered up so I just ended up forcing the screw thru the hole. the radiator itself is very pretty. nice and squared ends make it look “high end” though the tube fittings could be nicer. kinda looks like some DIY garage crimp fittings for the tubes on both the radiator and the pump. pretty much plug and play if you have a 3pin ARGB header. Gigabyte adapter included if you need it. Plays nicely with AuraSync but not real friendly with the bootleg aurasync hacked into razer synapse to do crazy ARGB rainbow effects. Other than those minor things, I am very very impressed with the quality of this unit especially for the price. Keeps my 10600K at 5.0ghz below 70c
It’s a shame as I wanted to use it for my build, as it got very good reviews online on tech sites. Reluctantly returned it.
I have this thing cooling the 3700x.. Idle temps at 35C and running big graphics games hasnt gone over 60C!! Unreal so far, can’t wait to push it further!
sits around 35-40 at idle and doesn’t go over 50 for me while gaming, this thing is pretty good for the price, pretty straightforward installation. Built in software is decent if you don’t have a motherboard that will alow you to sync with it. all in all very pleased.

Have a Ryzen 5 3600 with a stock cooler that was idling around 70C, and that was underclocked (3.0GHz, down from factory 3.6GHz). I installed this liquid cooler and restored it to 3.6GHz, and it now idles at 32C and runs at 45C-50C under full load while encoding video. The fans are pretty quiet but the pump itself is a bit louder than I’d like when streaming, otherwise this would get five stars. That being said, for the price, this is an absolute no-brainer.
Works great! And its also $40 -$50 bucks cheaper than some of the other AIOs on the market. I Love it!
This is a fantastic product for the price, only complaints are that the fans are not the exact same shade as the rest of the unit and it does not come with enough screws for a push/pull configuration, however those are very nit picky. With a push/pull config my Ryzen 7 3700X runs precision boosted while staying at around 40 degrees at idle. If I get around to testing I will update this review to give temps under load, but all around a great cooler for the low price.
Update: after running an AIDA64 stress test at 100%, the Ryzen 7 3700X ran at 4.05 GHz precision boosted, topping out at 71 degrees Celsius. This is also without touching any fan or pump curves in bios. Also allowed for a push to a score of 4442 in Cinabench R20.

I bought this to replace a bulky Dark Rock Pro 4 that I wasn’t terribly happy with.
This 240x dropped my 3900x load temps by about 4c, which seriously impressed me for a budget 240mm AIO.
The fans aren’t too loud, it looks great (IMO), and the RGB integrates with my Gigabyte x570 Aorus Elite using the Fusion 2.0 software.
Zero complaints from me.
Was scared at first to go with a different mainstream for my 3900X and I have to say. The temps are really cool under full load only hitting 68 degrees Celsius! Like legitimately so pleased with it.
Excellent cpu temps in the 30s. This was very easy to install as well! the bracket design was genius! would highly recommend!
Results: my current ambient room temperature (71F, 22C) degrees. And, the MB temp around (30C); I’m seeing a nominal 32C in the Windows Core Temp software (which is reasonable). Once I fire up a multitask (i.e. rendering or video editing), the temperatures climb to around 58C (very good for a 240mm radiator and 0.30 amp fans)
Note: I’m not overclocking this particular processor – and, I recommend you begin temperature monitoring at baseline settings (not overclocked). Why: bc overclocking is an extreme profile – which presumes everything (cooling) is working properly. Also: overclocking is an extreme power draw – which the BIOS and Win software need to be properly matched (i.e. like setting the power in WIN and NVidia Control Panel to max performance)
Pros:
> Price to Performance is Excellent
> The LED lighting is fabulous and compliant to most MB RGB (3-pin, almost universal these days); I set my fans to RED to indicate warm exhaust and WHITE to indicate cool air coming in (personal choice)
> Noise levels are excellent – probably cuz the fans are low RPM (around 1200 max) – which is perfect for me – but not so good for hotter indoor temps; go Corsair ML 120mm for bigger RPMs (sacrifice noise)
> Universal fit and plenty of screws and brackets to match most configs; (LGA X299 has everything in the box) – which will normally fit the smaller INTEL setups (LGA 1151, 1200), no problem…
> Overall: beautiful design with good fit and price to punt – Well Done!
Cons:
> More like a personal gripe: but cable management is desperately needed (got wires slinging everywhere, no fun if you have a lot of spinning fans); I recommend velcro wraps or retractable zip-ties (velcro for sure)
Thanks, and I hope this helps the new builders and the Vets that forget about the simple things in life…

> Universal fit and plenty of screws and brackets to match most configs; (LGA X299 has everything in the box) – which will normally fit the smaller INTEL setups (LGA 1151, 1200), no problem…
> Overall: beautiful design with good fit and price to punt – Well Done!
Cons:
> More like a personal gripe: but cable management is desperately needed (got wires slinging everywhere, no fun if you have a lot of spinning fans); I recommend velcro wraps or retractable zip-ties (velcro for sure)
Thanks, and I hope this helps the new builders and the Vets that forget about the simple things in life…
Works well and is cheaper than the Corsair. Don’t know about the fans because I replaced them to match the custom rig I built.
Everything is synced properly with the motherboard. ID cooling replaced those yellowish fans that I was seeing on other builds, and they are actually really good for the price.
My 3600 sits at 33-36 degrees on idle.
It is worth getting one and it is aesthetically pleasing.
The case is a phanteks P500A with the rgb fans that came with the case.

It works, my temps are cool but my fans are still really loud.
The only problem I had with this cooler where the instructions, I’ve installed a few Aio’s before but this one was slightly harder to do mostly to the lack of instructions but luckily there are a couple of YouTube videos talking abt insulation. The cooler works pretty good, I’m currently using it on my 2600x OC at 4.25 ghz and I’m idling at abt 35C which compared to my previous Evga 240 aio which ran at abt 34 I would say is a very good competitor. The ARG works very good as well the light is diffused in the fans so there’s no hot spots there’s just a lack of color options but that’s on msi’ end, So if ur in the market for a relatively cheaper aio I would give it a shot.

I have been impressed with this AIO. I have it on a Ryzen 3800x and at idle my temps are at 28 to 29 degrees. I had a Corsair h100i pro xt that died on me and I had to go to the boxed AMD wraith cooler for a while. Anyway, this cooler, the ID AIO, performs better that the Corsair that I had, which was way more expensive btw. I also love how it looks in my system. My CPU is boosting higher with this AIO rather that the Corsair, and the wraith….forget about it.
Yes, buy it. You will not be dissappointed.

Overall, it’s a good buy for the money and I will update if I need to demote it for some reason.
p.s. The ‘iD Cooling’ sticker on the side of the radiator peeled off after several runs, but I’m not sure if that’s a bad thing really. It still shows an “iD” on the AiO lit-up pump.

The cooler is great , for some reason it makes this strange noise when booting up the machine almost like the pump is getting up to speed. After I get past the post screen it goes away and doesn’t return unless I shut off the PC. Great temps keeps a ryzen 5 2600 @4.1 GHz at a cool 50-60 C under full load.
Ben building my new PC and have been writing a lot of reviews lately. I’ve always preferred big air coolers but changed my mind when I got my new case and I’m happy I did.
This cooler is great. My 3600 was idling at 51 degrees, yes it was warm, with the stock cooler. Now it’s at 38. At load, cpu-z stress test, used to be at 82 now at its at 67-68. What a difference. The same company makes all the coolers so why pay more for the branding and marketing.
Read and watched some great reviews that made the $$$ spent on this cooler make much sense than going with the big name brand.
Also it has RGB so you get 5 extra fps in all your games.

Easy to install, rgb works with out a header on motherboard.
Company itself
So ID-Cooling is a Computer based company that features awesome products,I have ordered RGB fans from them and the AIO Cooler. They seem to have nothing but highly favorable reviews for all of their products due to the built quality and the results which i consider most important.
Unboxing
Unboxing this product i was very impressed how everything was packed securely and tight.Everything came in excellent condition with no faults of ups or Packaging from ID-Cooling.
Installation
Installation took about 30 seconds,Screw in a few screws,attatch the fans and screw in 6 more screws your done!
Product itself,I ended up plugging a motherboard to it to see it power on and i was ecstatic about the results,absolutely cannot wait for the rest of my build to get here,More pictures and videos will follow when it does!
AIO Seems to be where everyone turns to in order to cool your cpu even cooler vs an air cooler. I figure its time to go ahead and try it as i hear the ryzen 7 are amazing but run very hot vs my intel 4790k.
I am so excited to be using ID-COOLING as my AIO And also my rgb fans which all come in this week as well,Huge shoutout to them for making some great products and absolutely a fair price for the quality your getting.

UPDATE: I’m updating this review to 5 stars because I’ve realized that the buzzing fan is the rear intake fan (Thermaltake) that’s installed in my case. The noise from the included fans is almost nonexistent
I am not sure whether it’s the fans or the pump that make the noise, but it seems to be the fans themselves given that its tone changes, presumably propotional to the CPU load (fans are plugged into the mobo’s CPU fan header in my config). The noise sounds like a slight buzzing in addition to the sound of the air being moved, with most of my other fans I really only hear the air moving but there is a distinctive tone with these ones. I haven’t used it under sustained load yet, but ran a few benchmarks/stress tests and it wasn’t horribly loud, just a slightly more noticeable tone than I would prefer.
The noise isn’t that big of a deal. Temps are nice and cool, staying well below 70C in the benchmarks that I ran with auto-OC enabled in Ryzen Master, and the fan never seemed to be working too hard. I used CM MasterGel Maker paste on my CPU rather than the included compound, not sure if that has any effect on temps. RGB looks nice and there are a few options available to customize color/pulse pattern. For the money, this is a solid pickup.
Take care to check if your Mobo supports addressable RGB peripherals. I assumed that since my Mobo included “Asus Aura” that the RGB connectors would integrate easily, but as it turns out my motherboard won’t support addressable connections. I just use the included controller, no big deal.

Took a little while to let the cooler do it’s thing before reviewing and it does everything you’d expect for a Corsair or high end AIO, it just looks better, and costs far less than most all it’s competitors. .
As expected it droped my temps considerably from an amd spire, and still well below a single fan AIO as well. Certain games, looking at you Warzone, seem to boost temps immediately upon starting, and this keeps me in a safer more comfy temp range. I wasn’t throttling before, but had higher temps than I wanted. Fully custom and integrated lighting for most common lighting software, the all white looks amazing imo, also if your build isn’t all white, the product reflects any color the lights are currently. Took a chance with a lesser known and reviewed brand, mostly for its cosmetic match to my pc/price and I’m glad I did. Amazing deal on a great product so far a few months in.

The white of the radiator and fans match well with my white darkFlash DLM21 case and the whole unit fit perfectly at the top. The case is thick and sits the motherboard inches away from the top, allowing both radiator and fan clearance for the ASRock B450m Steel Legend motherboard’s heatsinks above the CPU. I did have to move the 8pin EPS power cable over to accommodate the fan, but it wasn’t too bad, as you can see from the second picture.
I just installed it the other night so I haven’t had a chance to run a cpu stress test or benchmark yet, but I will.
Additionally, the RGB lighting is addressable and comes with a 3pin/5v splitter that allows you to integrate it into your current ARGB setup…which in my case is the darkFlash Dr12 pro fans and controller and M.2 RGB Heatsink. This allows me to control the RGB mode and colors with ASRock’s Polychrome…
I have two gripes with the Zoomflow 240x Snow Edition.
The first problem is the ID-Cooling sticker that is usually on the side of the radiator. As you can see form the second and third pictures, the sticker is constantly falling off. The weird thing is, the radiator is cool to the touch and the back of the sticker is really sticky…so I don’t know why it’s falling…I’ve decided to leave it off for now. This in no way affects the cpu cooling and is an aesthetic only gripe.
The second issue I have, is the orientation of the pump once you attach it to the mounting plate, in my case the AMD AM4 mount. As you can see in the first pic, despite the mounting bracket being straight, the pump sits at and angle. I would have liked it to have aligned with the mount so that the outlet/inlets would be between the two mounting screws…in my system, this would have allowed the hoses to sit lower in the case instead of pushing outward. This is a minor issue and probably only an issue in my particular build.
Overall, I do recommend this cooler for budget minded builders.

Not that loud, and it compares to other high end coolers. Cooling is pretty good. And easy to install and if backed by insurance which is great.
Easy to install, it even gives you mounting brackets for both amd and intel.
It took me a little maneuvering to lock the mounting bracket into the position I wanted inside the case, but it was by no means difficult, and really it just means that you can angle this anywhere you want.
I already use the rgb fusion app for my other pc parts, so it’s nice to see it comes with tons of lighting and rgb features there.
Runs quiet and looks great!

Works very well, bit of an install, any questions ask!
