Arctic Liquid Freezer II 420 - Multi Compatible CPU AIO Water Cooler, Compatible with Intel & AMD, Efficient PWM Controlled Pump, Fan Speed: 200-1700 RPM (Controlled via PWM) - Black

I have a huge PC case so monster size cooler fits perfectly. The larger fans and increased service area helps reduce the need for the fans to run faster making my system quieter.No RGB lights, which is nice. Cools my CPU really well. Daisy chained fans makes it more convenient eliminating wires and as well as the need to find more power sources on my MB to power each individual fan.Very easy to install.

Structure- unique pros, my cons and possible fixes for them, summaryPros-.An outstanding usermanual that makes it easy to configure and install.oddly enough the manual doesnt show a (case to fan to rad *pull*) configuration, this is possible with no extra hardware; Mounting holes on both sides of rad. Any configuration is possible.Unique mounting system for AMD4 that enhances cooling for specific AMD chips.Silent VRAM fan that can be easily disconnected if desired.Very quiet and variable speed fans with quality bearings.virtually silent pump, quieter than near silent fans (however see cons)Cons (only had cons that were specific to me)-.radiator had enough air out of the box where, running at the upper pump rpm, draws the air into the pump that is ~4 inches lower that the top of the rad. The air is audible but only in semi quiet conditions. Stricter QA standards, a fill port (hard to be possible with this size rad) may help -mitigations: mounting the rad with in/outlets on bottom (if vertically mounted) would prevent entirely but not possible with my build, however running pump on variable fan header instead of max rpm pump header prevents issue until a hard load.two spots on radiator that were under the original fan position had notable damage to the fins in a ~half inch area on each. Damage was bad enough to block flow in the area. Taking a Xacto knife and working the fins back opened flow, but still shows damaged areas (important to me because I moved the fans to the other side). Mitigations: Stricter QA standardsSummary:I would without a doubt buy this AIO again if I needed another. Seeing the attention to detail and above and beyond design and components that Artic uses at this price point puts them on the forefront of cooling for me in the future. The two cons were specific to my individual rad and were not bad enough to sway my opinion on the company. The cooler looks mean and preforms phenomenally. Enough said.

Good so far Arctic AIO well made good temps on my 12900KS good price for the AIO replaced corsair AIO .

It's big and heavy. The radiator is THICK and it's all daisy chained to the 4 pin connection on the cpu connector. The kit doesn't come with the standard LGA1700 backplate like tutorials show but instead the slim version which works perfectly fine. It also comes with mx-5 thermal paste so no need to buy a separate paste. If you own a 4060 ti or up, they may conflict spacewise in the case so measuring is important. Even my 7000d airflow corsair barely has room for both this and my 4070ti. I think this is the best non argb aio there is for the price and performance. In terms of noise, it's a bit engine like when it ramps up as temps rise but I do have it cooling the heat monster i9-14900k so it's to be expected. Stays under 65c so its doing a great job. I do have pwm and smart fan enabled in bios so it's mostly quiet when I'm not gaming.

Running for months, no issues from this item.

Great cooler for a 7950x look no further. This is coming from originally a Corsair Hydro Series H150i PRO user. The old cooler was struggling to keep up with the 7950x. Chip runs hot as all hell. Though the Artic not only keeps cores at all 5500ghz.

Perfect thus far. Thank you.
