Arctic told me if mounting from the front the tubes should be coming from the bottom or else you run the risk of pumping air. Not sure if you experienced that but thought I would share.
Good you did, but honestly didn't have the problem with that. ;)
@@PCCrazyDario thanks for the reply. I haven't received this cooler yet although it is ordered so wanted to do some research on it. Did you ever end up doing a follow on this video?
Spaz Network Actually no. I recorded this, used it couple of days after that and didn’t have a single issue with it during that period. 😉
But 360mm or 420mm pipe is not long enough if put in front and the inlet/outlet at the bottom
8:30 the radiator is below the pump will cause bubble noise or lack of efficiency
Yes
Hello. Great review. I own Arctic Freezer II 240 and i must say it is really a great AIO product. For sure Best Buy. In Idile got my Ryzen 5 2600 around 26 °C, and on load around 40°C. With OC to 4.1Ghz on load got around 60°C. It really is silent, can hear it only on heavy load. I recommend.
tdrempa Thanks for the additional information. And glad you like it 🤗
Wow
Wrong cpu pump positioning. Air rises to the highest point. The CPU pump will trap air. The pump needs to be below the radiator and preferably hoses at the bottom as well
Actually, the pump is located at the bottom part of the CPU block, just below the top part of the radiator. Also, the pipes are in the higher position than the pump, so the air will be either locked at the top of the pipes or at the top of the radiator which is fine. ;)
@@PCCrazyDario It's less than preferable. Hopefully with my new one I can go tubes down
@@eclipsez0r Of course it would be much better if the radiator was a bit higher, but unfortunately this case this position of the 2x 140mm fans or rad. In any case, for the time that the review is done, it wouldn't hurt the pump because right after that, it is taken down.
@@PCCrazyDario Oh I see only temporary
@@eclipsez0r Exactly. I mean, on my channel I have 600+ videos and I had to build like 300 builds or something like that. Where would I place them. :D This is 95% of the time temporary to get results and the temperatures don't differ if the rad is in this position. ;) When it come sto positioning, I know that without a doubt. In any case, thanks for noticing.
I use mine in a push/pull fan configuration with 4 fans.
For water cooling a custom open-loop is best. But if you don't have $500 or more for one, than an AIO is better than nothing.
Honestly, AIO is a great way to start with water cooling in general. Some people have phobia when it comes to water and components in the same sentence. ;) But I also agree with your statement.
@@PCCrazyDario A phobia of water and electricity is understandable. Jay of JayzTwoCents just did a video showing what can happen when water and a GPU meet. It's wasn't pretty. That said, I've been doing open-loops for over 7 years and haven't has a single leak. It pays not to be cheap on the fittings.
for me it seems to be the only option for a r9 and 300w gpu in ITX. For that level of power or those components to actually run at advertised speeds or more...in itx. Vs having to push a 16c r9 cpu to eco mode etc..."Sad". Other than that it comes down to max cfm a chassis can provide airflow as far as non itx. If a system has gpu intake fans for an air build...the air cooler will ultimately lose to a front mounted aio with a large enough chassis. BC of the GPU air hitting an air cooler vs a front mount push pull 360 or 280mm aio. Its a cost aspect for me over performance in non ITX...vs itx being the other way around i guess. Or in regards to benchmark scores the only way an itx beefy system is gonna yield is with a custom loop. ATX or my build is just bc i wanted air flow with low DB fans...as well as GPU intakes so my GPU can be locked to 70% max on its curve. For noise ofc
Better than noctua nh-D15?
_ Nutzu Didn’t test it so I don’t know the temps from the top of my head (talking here about the specific Noctua cooler).
@@PCCrazyDario thanks because i have to choice one of those for my r5 3600
_ Nutzu Honestly, both will work just fine if not even better than fine. Watched couple of reviews on the NH-D15. You won’t have to worry
It's slightly better yes
@@jeffkuzzen noctua is a real damn good choice especially durability wise. That thing lasts.
Better than corsair h115i pro?
THANH NGUYEN Don’t know. Never had anything from Corsair.
What did you have before?
THANH NGUYEN This is not my build, it was just for testing purposes 😉
Salaminized Hehe yeah 😉👍
@Salaminized I actually bought the Arctic 280mm but it had a huge dent in it. I'm sending it back, would have got a replacement but there is no stock for a while so I decided to buy the Corsair H115i Platinum. Costs way more but looks cool if you like RGB obviously. Only a 2 year warranty with the Arctic vs 5 year warranty for Corsair and apparently Arctic don't have you covered if the AIO leaks whereas Corsair would replace your whole system if the AIO leaked.
this cooler in the 280mm size has dissappeared from the market >.>
hypertion Did you check their website because they usually have the link there on where to buy it
Wrong mount radiator
Pump lower than the highest position of the loop.
can we disable the vrm fan?
Chris AH Honestly, haven’t found the power off button since there is no software. But why do you ask? It is quiet.
@@PCCrazyDario Thanks. I am generally wary about small fans and them having to spin very fast to move sufficient air. so in a decently ventillated place better to have the option to disable than not. still this AIO seems a no brainer overall. Thanks for detailed review too.
@@chrisah1 Yeah, don't worry. I would mention it in the review if it was a problem. And honestly, I think that Arctic is way to serious manufacturer to produce that bad fan. ;) You are very welcome. ;)
PC Crazy ut shouldn’t change much if we do disable the vrm fan right? There is a plug on the underside of the pump for just the vrm fan, a piece of dirt or a bug or something got wedge under the plastic fan so now is all wobbly
Radiator is installed the wrong way round
I'm just going to place this link: ruclips.net/video/DKwA7ygTJn0/видео.html
The hoses aren't long enough to mount rad properly they should be at the bottom of rad.
in a larger m-atx chassis or full atx...it could be pretty hard to reach a CPU socket with the hoses facing down...id know i have it set that way with my 280mm and it barely reaches...as my 3070 strix touches the hoses...bc the clearance with the AIO in push pull....has the GPU close to my pull fans/hoses. I really hope they extend the hose length by a lil...for these front mount push pull needs. ESP for a 360....had i tried the same setup idk if the 360 aio fans would have reached my cpu...then id have to top mount it....but the point of my build is to have GPU intake fans...and un-obstructed exhaust. For that added heat/air flow. In other systems with sub 200w gpus they could get by with a top mount aio...but any 250-300+w gpus... esp with added GPU intakes...it would add a bit of heat to the CPU cooling end results No doubt. Buyer beware if theyre trying to front mount hoses on bottom. I have a mesh II P....and it barely reaches my x570....one could possibly move the fan cage closer to their motherboard if they have a smaller gpu....not in my case or any other user with a max sized GPU like a 3070 strix(3080 strix cooler). It basically makes matters worse for those builders with regular sized m-atx chassis....and a LARGE GPU if theyre trying to front mount with bottom hoses...finding a path to the cpu means putting the hoses in front of your gpu between the side window.
Jer to neko prodaje u hr il je tek izašlo?
master vex pc Ima na Amazonu kupiti, stavio sam dole linkove, a za HR... Iskreno, nadam se uskoro da ce negdje biti dostupno.
@@PCCrazyDario naso sam ima u linksu...
@@mastervexpc1881 Top!
Thumbs down because of too many ads
That is basically Thumbs Down for RUclips and not me. I just turned on regular amount of ads but they are constantly adding more. Sorry, but I can’t fight that.

No chart, no table, keep talking and waste of our time.
2 year warranty kills it. :( Corsair ? 5 YEARS.
NZXT ? 6 YEARS WARRANTY !!
Corsair and NZXT are muuuuuuuuuuuuch expensiver! You are really Moron that you think you have for an 60€ Produkt the same warranty as an 200€ product? Now sleep again
@@Cthulhu_Ryleh knowing this I will not buy it. If they can't offer that warranty on the same level and I have to replace it after 3 years it's not actually worth the price because they don't believe their own product is gonna last just as long and there is no data to back up whether or not Artic can last as long as the status quo brands...
@@Cthulhu_Ryleh icue and CAM owners get to pick their poison.
@@deswill2737 Actually it is 6 years for Arctic AiO you can check on their website.
@@stuckonluck where? I see nothing on the product page nor the warranty page about 6 years and 2 years is standard in EU
