I bought this this morning lol Looking forward to installing it in my system tomorrow. :) I'll be avoiding L Connect completely & connecting the fans & pump straight to the MB.
Quite comprehensive video showing myriad of combinations of fans and connections ! Another great video that demands several viewings to get it all right ! Well done, PP ! Well done !
Concur with the other requests in comments to see how well this AIO performs with SL INF fans instead of the Performance fans. It will be good to know if the performance is mainly due to the thicker radiator and pump or the fans play a significant role. Many users will probably want a full INF setup to synch the looks and replace the Performance fans. The question is how big a difference in performance will the AIO have if the default fans are replaced with: 1. 3x INF fans 120mm; 2. 6x INF fans push and pull.
@@TheProvokedPrawn Been searching the interweb's to find this comparison. Would be super awesome to also compare against the standard version with SL INF fans. Since I already have 3 SL-INF fans the price difference isn't too much and want to go with the best possible while keeping all the eye candy.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought each port is limited to 4 fans. I’m actually about to install 6 infinity fans with push/pull configuration this evening.
@@haies09 I've had no issues with mine as the pump noise is like with any other AIO. The only time I may actually hear the pump is when I have all my case and rad fans turned off when I'm doing light computer work.
Still havnt seen anyone make a benchmarks video for this aio and the sl-inf version yet which is annoying. Idk how good this is compared to something like an arctic freezer 2 or the somwhat new Ek Lux D nucleus aio.
PLEASE HELP ! Since app. 2 years I am running an O11 Dynamic XL Case (not EVO), and using YOUR Push/Pull Setup on the back side for intake. All Fans are Corsairs and the AiO is a NZXT. I would love to swap to a complete LianLi Setup with Infinity Fans and Reverse Infinity Fans, together with the Galahad Performance AiO. MY PROBLEM ! - The performance Galahad has a thicker Radiator (+5mm) and thicker fans (+3mm) which would both be mounted in the back, but I dont think this +8mm more thickness would be possible to fit in the case. As you have the most knowledge about all the LianLi products, I rly hope you could tell me if its possible or not (before I order something). Thx in advance for your help and keep up your aweseome work - great video as allways !
Hey. I have this AIO cooler and the same case but I have the mini version of the case. The cooler can only be installed at the bottom with an ATX motherboard. Would you recommend reversing the fans to pull through the radiator and have my Lian Li UNI P28 3 pack mounted at the too, push the air out?
great video! This is one of the videos that convinced me to get this AIO. In my case though, l-connect 3 doesnt show my AIO (i have the sata connected , its the only sata power needing device, i have the USB into one of the USB 2 headers (wasn't using any), and have the pump in my AIO_PUMP header. The fans on the radiator are on the CPU_FAN to avoid the bios complaining about low rpm on cpu fan). My pump in the bios shows N/A and as mentioned, l-connect 3 (v1.6.30) shows just system info and settings, i dont see anything like yours. I dont care about the RGB but i'd like to see the pump details and such , any ideas?
Don't know if you've fixed this yet, but you don't need the AIO_PUMP connection at all. Connect the fixed wiring from the pump to CPU_FAN. The radiator fans connect to the Y splitter which plugs into the pump body, so the fans and their RGB are supplied by the pump.
My galahad 2 trinity performance pump made a loud rattling noise after 1 Month of use and failed completly 1 day later. The price and the cooling performance is really good tho.
for some reason no matter how I wire it the pump won’t listen. I connect it directly to the motherboard and to the controller for my unifans but nothing works
Do you think i would lose cooling performance if i were to use the 3 performance fans with the 3 sl 120 fans together for push pull vs keeping the the aio in its base configuration? Thanks for the video!
Thanks for joining the channel. I wouldn't mix and match fans on the rad. The RPM and other specs of the two fans will be so different it wouldn't be optimal.
I am thinking the same thing, but the main reason is because I do not know how this AIO will fare if the default fans are replaced. If the INF fans perform near as well, then a single push config replacement can be enough. Otherwise, maybe a push and pull with INF fans.
Hey man. Dumb question here... I bought this things a few weeks ago and apparently one of the 4 pin cables got damaged (the one that is fixed to the block alongside with Sata and USB connectors)... So my question is: is that 4 pin cable absolutely necessary for the pump to work? My i9 9900k processor is showing 100° Celsius on all cores... The radiator fans are working at full capacity and connected to cpu_opt header... I tried to put the supposedly damaged 4 pin on cpu_sys and sys_pump but the sensor on each is not showing not even in Bios... Is that 4 pin cable the one that actually makes the pump work? What can I do if I discover that such cable is indeed damaged? Thank u so much for your time
Hey, I watched your Lian Li 011 Evo XL build video and ordered my parts to replicate it. As I was looking, I wasn’t sure how much power I would need. I ordered the Corsair 850W 80+ gold but all the the calculator apps were not consistent. Some said under 700 but some said upwards of 1200. I ordered the same motherboard(Asus ROG Maximus Z690 Formula w/Hyper M.2), Intel core I9 12,900k, gigabyte 3090, lian li gallahad cooler, 11 Lian Li rgb fans, the evo xl case, 16gb x4 corsair ddr5 rgb ram, 2TB ssd x3(wd black and x2 970 evo) and some other external components like keyboard, mouse, etc. I went all white and the 850W Corsair was the only one available in white. Should I go to the 1500W they sent you? Would 1000W be enough. I’m no expert and could use advice. Thanks for all your excellent videos.
Should the pump lighting turn on after connecting the pumps 5V ARGB connection to either motherboard or Hub controller's SM port? I have an issue where it is not lighting up doing this but only lights up after connecting the pumps usb cable to motherboard header. Is the usb connection the only way to light up the pump?
Can this AIO use 140mm fans instead of 120mm? I plan to do a push/pull configuration with 140mm fans. I wonder if that is possible without using a bracket.
Hey I have this exact aio on my new pc, my only problem is when I go to turn my computer off everything turns off expect for the aio pump rgb, and it keeps the lighting preset on it, say rainbow, it keeps projecting that 24/7 until you turn off the power supply. I’ve turned off the usb setting in bios that would cause this, but so far no luck in fixing it, any help would be appreciated
Pump just started to make noise like a mini motorbike no matter what setting pump is on... it is only 29 days old :( contacted Overclockers UK but no reply (place I bought it) Any ideas on what to do ?
hello please answer. i have same aio cooler lian li galahad ii performance 360 and want conneting on the motherboard, but i don't understand which connecting method is good. i want to control fan speeds and rgb lights via l connect. on mb is 2 cpu fan headers. cpu fan and cpu opt. i plug aio pump cable on cpu fan header and radiators fan cable on cpu opt header on motherboard. it works, but radiators have no lighting. in your video you plug radiators fans cable on aio pump 4 pin header. i have other 4 case fans, not lian li which is connected on sys fan header on mb. i need that all aio fans an case fans will controlled speeds and rgb lighling together with L connect. usb cable is plugged on motherboards usb header and sata power cable on psu. please answer and sorry for bad english.
@@TheProvokedPrawn then where should I connect the fans? I know in the beginning of the video you say to plug the pump to cpu fan. But at 10:10 when you’re switching to SL120 fans, you plug the RGB to the hub and the fan cable to cpu fan header, then the pump to the pump header. I’m using the same hub so I’m trying to figure out where to plug the fans and pump being that I don’t have a pump header
Can someone explain to I (my english not so good so I might have did missed smth) I want plug all motherboard and no l connector. I put pump to pump header, usb to usb, and fans from radiatore to CPU _fan header. But how i put on rgb connected to motherboard??
Is there any way to power the rub without the usb header on the motherboard? I tried everything but can’t use the header since my 2 strimmer controllers use the 2 slots I have
@@TheProvokedPrawn yeah I was trying to avoid ordering a hub since I already had my pc apart, I ordered a usb splitter off aliexpress for like 3$, should do the trick
So im gettign this cooler and I want to use my RGB fans front facing in my case. Could is use these on one side and my SL120s on the otherside? So I get the looks of my RGB fans but a little more performance from these included fans?

@@TheProvokedPrawn is it better than Corsair iCue Link H150i RGB? I'm waiting for your answer. Thank you
Extremely well thought out vid, I wondered what the effectiveness of a push/pull set up is in terms of temperature really is.

Oh really? Figured I'd be behind the curve on that as I haven't had time to benchmark/review yet. I might be able to though.
@@TheProvokedPrawn if you do get around to it tysm
There are benchmark videos about performance and the basic trinity. But it would be nice to see the infinity version and different push pull setups.
Benchmarking an AIO is an absolute wait of time and actually irrelevant.
@@jamesm568 its still a nice thing to have information on and test out of curiosity. Even if the differences are only like 3-7c

I have tightened the screw all the way until it's locked out. is there any problem?
I connected the pump to the fans and when i booted the pc it said that it’s running at 2600rpm😅 Should i just plug the 3 fans to the pump socket or?
I can't seem to tighten my screws on the pump enough. Just keeps spinning. Is that part of the design?

recalled
why ? why black?? jeez :)) i´ve the white one bcs white build ^^ yours doesnt match the system
Does using SL120 V2 fans instead of the Lian Li Galahad 2 Trinity Performance original fans will reduce the cooling performance ? (only push scenario)
Something I need to test but I'd say yes because the performance fans are purposely designed for cooling this AIO and have better specs.
