ASUS TUF Gaming LC II 360 ARGB All-in-One Liquid CPU Cooler with Aura Sync, 3X TUF Gaming 120mm ARGB Radiator Fans, Reinforced Tubing, and 6-Year Warranty;Widely Compatible with Latest Intel&AMD CPUs

My first use of an AIO water cooler met with reasonable success in this big fella. Installed on my new Ryzen 7 5700X3D, it runs very cool even under extreme gaming stress. I checked the BIOS temp readings alongside HW Monitor app and they show the same thing, it hasn't topped 52 C under stress. Along with switching to this cooler from my old Noctua monster heatsink, I replaced my older Ryzen 5 2600 with a new Ryzen 7 5700X3D, all that said, this review is after running everything as is, I have not overclocked anything yet but will explore that with this new setup down the road, I doubt I will experience any issues with overclocking alongside this AIO providing sufficient cooling. The overall construction is great, it comes well packaged with everything you'll need to install on any AMD or Intel CPU. The instructions didn't mention using the included plastic stand off washers on the screws used to attach the radiator unit to the case frame but it's pretty easy to figure out. Nice how it comes with pre-applied thermal paste too. I have yet to read about any coolant leaks on other reviews, I suppose there's only so much that could be done about that given the entire concept of liquid cooling. My AM4 mainboard is an older Asus B-450M-A which doesn't have a dedicated 4-pin AIO header, so I connected to pump to the CPU fan header, temps and fan speed register in the BIOS and on various hardware monitoring apps, so I'm guessing that's the speed of the pump??? The three fans on the radiator are wired together with a separate 4-pin plug which I plugged into one of the two chassis fan PWM connectors. That being said, make sure PWM mode is enabled because at first the radiator fans would surge and throttle sounding like a V-22 on take off, but once PWM was enabled on the CPU fan header via the BIOS it calmed down. Now even under load its no louder than the other five 140mm case fans I have running. My only issue is my mainboard has one older 4-pin RGB header (already in use with strip lighting synched to Asus Aura), this has the newer 3 pin (and different voltage / non-compatible with 4 pin) ARGB plugs, so the lighting on the radiator fans and pump do not work, but it's hardly a big deal. I'm trying to squeeze every year out of this already eight year old mainboard that I can, so if this is my only issue switching to AIO cooling, I cannot complain. I have been a fan of ASUS for decades and this cooler holds true to form.

Relatively simple installation, slick Asus TUF branding, quiet, and effective at controlling temps on an 11700KF.The Asus desktop I have this installed in originally shipped with a gigantic air-cooled cpu cooler with 2 fans on it, and it sounded like a kitchen hood fan (or a clothes dryer) any time I fired up a game. The cpu would constantly throttle down due to heat. To try to fix this, I was able to squeeze in a 92mm liquid cooler into the awkwardly laid out case. It was much quieter than the air cooled solution, but I would still occasionally have thermal throttling-which I expected to see with an undersized cooler. It was uncommon enough, to the point where I could avoid it by limiting game time in those high-demand games to less than an hour at a time.Fast forward to now, and I happened upon a great deal on a Corsair 4000D case (free from a friend who swapped their Corsair-branded guts into a panoramic glass case). I swapped the guts of the Asus desktop into the new-to-me case, and I was finally able to accommodate a proper cooler for the class of cpu I had.Temps are now in the high 70s (Celsius) under full tilt games like FH5, F1, and Hogwarts Legacy. I can’t get the temperature above 82 C no matter what I do, whether gaming for hours or running Fold@Home overnight. Idle temp is the same as ambient temp inside the case, usually 25-35 Celsius.I got mine at a significant discount, and I think it was well worth what I paid. Honestly, I’d have a hard time paying full price because there are many other good cooling solutions from reputable manufacturers out there for less than the current $120 asking price.

Wanted a cheaper aio without breaking the bank. This does the job especially for my amd5 cpu. Comes with a one piece 3 fan mounted to the aio with a rgb daisy chain to connect more rgb to. The screen is able to switch from “Asus” to “prime” if you want.

Create upgrade over the air cooler I was using also put one in my son's new pc bill that I made no issues so far and it's been about 6 months since I bought them.

I probably should have gone with a 360mm for my personal 14th Generation Intel I5 but is working decently with this 240mm cooler. There is some blurring in the RGB lighting that is a little ugly so... 4 stars.
