About this deal

The installation is an easy task and the comprehensive user guide is provided to help the users in installation. Competition is fierce for CPU coolers right now, with Arctic’s Liquid Freezer II, which we reviewed here, posing the biggest challenge for EK. This is where you can pick up your items once you receive a message from us that your package has arrived. With my radiator and fans in the same position/orientation it shaved off almost 20C under load when playing long games of PUBG (62C vs 80C), whilst maintaining a very similar idle temperature of around 42C.

Each aRGB fan features a standard 5v, 3-pin aRGB splitter to daisy chain with other devices to assist in cable management. And we see that materialize here: The EK AIO 360 is functionally equal to the NZXT Kraken X72, X63, and H115i Platinum. Our 5-year warranty is backed by design, hardware, and materials of recognizable EK quality, including premium-grade O-rings that ensure your Nucleus AIO remains leak-proof for its lifetime.This mostly demonstrates the ability of liquid coolers to better soak large load spikes, offering the potential to keep thermally-dependent clocks -- like those operated under Precision Boost 2 or TVB -- at higher levels for longer. To learn about our test bench and testing procedures, please see our detailed testing methodology article or video. The arrow marking on the 3-pin LED connector is to be aligned with the +5V marking on the A-RGB (D_RGB) header. The Elite Aurum is here and ready to provide ample cooling power even for the toughest processors on the market. A pair of aRGB Vardar S fans come standard on the EK AIO 240 D-RGB, are 4-pin PWM-managed and can be run in parallel from the same header using the 2-way splitter.

User should pay attention on the orientation of the backplate for the Basic and the D-RGB versions as orientation is different for both series of the coolers. Liquid coolers are mounted in an equivalent position to the top of a case, so this gives you a look at expected performance in an equivalent top-mount. The CLC 360 did horribly relative to its size in the 35dBA test, although it does comparatively better at 40dBA in our Intel HEDT testing, but it does maintain a lead at its deafening 60. Then it flows to the AIO’s radiator where fans efficiently cool the liquid and recirculate it to contiunue the constant cooling cycle.I would recommend this product for anyone looking to get an AIO, it's brilliant value and I would rate much higher than Corsair, NZXT and others. The springs mean no concern about mounting pressure is needed -- you just tighten within reason until sufficient resistance is provided, then stop. The tubes are installed on straight fittings on the radiator with aluminum clamps which are in matte black finish. Both AIO Basic and Elite Aurum made their video debuts at the EK EXPO Media Day, and you can see them in the immersive 360 Showroom. Taken as a whole the EK-Nucleus AIO CR360 Lux D-RGB is an all-around very impressive cooler with outstanding thermal performance, great build quality and decent looks, it’s simple to install and control RGB lighting.

This makes Nucleus AIO ideal for SFX builds since its fittings offer a 90° alignment for custom braided soft tubes.

Fast forward to the present and if you have looked into building a custom water-cooling loop, you likely would have also taken a long look at what EK has to offer.
