Easy to set up
Easy to set up, not too noisy. Thankfully My case had a window to take the bracket out on the motherboard without removing the motherboard from the case. Since I had an AMD CPU I had to keep my original plate for that cooler so if you don't have yours you might want to think of a different cooler. My temperatures dropped 5⁰ when before they were constantly reaching 90⁰, so for me that was worth it. Also it created a lot of space for my RAM since I had a big radiator tower in there before.

Crazy cooler
This is my first water cooler and man I gotta tell u this thing is soo cool. Just by the way it looks the way it sounds this thing is amazing. The software is super easy to use (keep in mind I have the brain of a actual potato) and where the pump is there is a little screen that you are able to customize like I was able to put pictures of me and my wife on there. If u don’t own one of you just looking to try it out I would 10/10 recommend you try this cooler out.

Strongly recommend
I really like this AIO. Cools my ryzen 5 cpu well, it's quiet, and the screen option is awesome. I'm able to monitor my temps just by glancing on my PC next to me instead of using software overlays.
