NOTICEABLY better cooling performance! I never knew how hot my MSI desktop was getting until I installed the MSI software. My machine with the stock 120mm AIO cooler was running at 88-92 degrees C with no load! I decided to replace the stock AIO with this beast and it made a world of difference. My machine now runs at 69-70 degrees C and my office is WAY warmer. I guess my stock AIO was keeping all of that warmth inside my CPU. I highly recommend this AIO. Now I need to get another fan to cool my office down. The cooler was a cinch to install and it looks pretty clean.

2 stars is being generous on my part. I liked this cooler a lot. it looked good. It cooled well. the price was great. was in stock to pick up and get it installed. So for 6 months it was good. then the whining and growling started and then not long after that... complete failure. i had read reviews with other consumers having these issues but was hoping it was a numbers game and i would be ok. but obviously not so. it seems like its a pretty wide spread problem. i plan on pursuing an rma when i get a minute. but i have purchased a corsair capellix as a replacement b/c i believe the rma replacement for this unit will give out as well since it has to be a design flaw if so many others are having the same issue. I WOULD STEER CEAR OF SPENDING YOUR MONEY ON THIS COOLER. which is a bummer b/c i wanted to be able to control all me rgb in dragon center as not to have to add another program to do this... if msi can get it together it would be great to have an almost all msi build...hardware and software.

Great to use as a cheaper dual fan water cooler! HOWEVER if you want the fancy RGB lighting, make sure you have a msi motherboard

Easy to install, keeps you ryzen 3600x cpu temps down and it’s super quiet. Nothing much more to say about it.

The cooler worked great for 8 months, then my computer began rebooting under a heavy work load. After looking at my event viewer, I determined that the CPU was getting too hot - Closer inspection revealed the pump was no longer working. Disappointed, MSI is usually great.

It seems to be ok. Keeping my temperatures down, which is what I was looking for. Installation was super easy on am4, running it on a 3700x

Amazing. Easy to install and keeps my temps way down. The RGB lighting is really cool also.

This liquid cooler was fantastic when it worked. Ran very quietly and the RGB lighting was very aesthetically pleasing. However within 3-4 months the pump started clicking with a popcorn-like noise. The liquid cooling slowly started to fail with the noise getting steadily worse. As of this morning (purchase date 6/29/21, about 4 months ago) the cooler failed entirely and stopped cooling the CPU. Filed a ticket with MSI customer support and it will likely get replaced. Given that it's supposed to last 4-5 years I replaced it with a Corsair AIO. That aside, I think if you don't get a defective unit facing pump failure you'll be satisfied. Furthermore the warranty MSI offers does fully cover this pump a year and if I had been hellbent on sticking with the MSI AIO I'd likely be satisfied with the performance of the replacement.

Great product! It keeps my Ryzen 7 5800X cool without any issues (temps just 2-3c higher than when I had an Arctic Cooling LFII 280mm). The pump on mine makes a whine when above 4000 rpm; the normal operating rpm is around 4300. I have it limited on my fan controller to not go above 3950 rpm, which keeps it almost silent. I would gladly buy this again! It was the easiest AIO cooler to mount that I’ve purchased

I purchased a 360R for another build and my Corsair AIO died so I needed one quick. Luckily BestBuy had one available for pickup that night so I ordered it online in the morning and picked it up in the afternoon. Works great and my processor stays cool. The pump is in the Radiator and not the Heat sync so it is less susceptible to pump noise like the others are depending on how you mount them in the case.

I bought this out of need. My old AIO broke because it had a poor retention bracket design and when I swapped to this the difference in build quality was amazing and super easy to setup. The thermals on my ryzen 7 5800x have never gotten over 82c under load so I am very happy with this product. ALSO the rgb is very vibrant and even in a black case with black mobo it will light up nicely!

Easy install, works as advertised, very silent, very cool rgb, easy to manage.

One of the best coolers I used, pump in the radiator not in the CPU bracket so no orientation limit, nice control of heat for Ryzen 7 5800X overclocked, I like seeing the dragon logo much better than a brand name (like NZXT or lian lee), also you can control the color to show the cpu temps but I guess this feature is available on almost all other coolers with rgb lighting.

Yes, it is less expensive than some of the others but use that as an advantage. Super easy install and quiet. My issue was my Asrock Fatal1ty X370 motherboard does not have the ARGB headers. I don't recall seeing that in the description on the BB site. Without this ARGB header, the fans will not spin and you'll have no lighting. Maybe MSI should've included an adapter.

Amazing Liquid Cooler 240, by MSI, I would get the 360 but my case isn't big enough. After figuring that out, I decided to get this one which was on sale for 84.99 at the time. It took me 1 hour to install, me being a novice with pcs! I love the RGB this has but the two top fans aren't controller by the same button the other fans are controlled from, the Mystic Light does it though!

There are several competing AIO brands out there but I really liked the look of the MSI Coreliquid 240r. I have a 10900k that was getting hot with an air cooler. I decided to switch over to this AIO and now my temps running Cinebench R23 never exceed 70°C. This AIO seems to work extremely well, the noise is low and it looks great while doing it!

Looks and works great, the install process was more difficult than necessary as the guide booklet included was less than helpful. I've only installed air coolers up to this point and they were straight forward. I had to watch a video on YouTube to get an idea of how to plug up the RGB and fans. A fan splitter cable is provided that you will use for power cables. If you're going to daisy chain the RGB, You want one of the RGB cables to be placed in a JRAINBOW connection on the motherboard if applicable to make the fans and cooling block RGB addressable by the software (Mystic Light if you're using an MSI board as well). There's more than one way to skin the cat when it comes to plugging up the RGB and fan power/control so review some videos on the how-to if you would prefer to do it another way. I also hadn't came across this issue before that seems to be specific to the configuration required for the cooling block install. Small square shaped brackets with threaded shafts are hung over the pre-installed board brackets on AM4 boards that are then routed through the mounting bracket on the cooling block where you will then apply the screws. I figured it would be easier to do this with the board and cooler mounted in the case instead of loosely on the work table. This was very much a mistake. The cooling block can be very tricky to get the brackets in place and the screws started, You either want to do it on the table and then move the parts or mount the board and leave the cooler unmounted until the block is seated.

So I had a stock CPU cooler and it got to the point where it was WAY too hot at like 90c - 100c. Did some research and bought this. I go the thermal Paste, the isopropyl alcohol to remove the thermal past that was there before, and a toolkit, and some other things. I got this on which was pretty easy and WHAT A DIFFERECNE IT MADE. My CPU was SO much cooler. It took about 60c off the CPU temps (Over 100f + cooler) and My computer as a result runs MUCH better. I have the pictures for reference below.

This cooler has lasted me a little over 10 months without issue. Super easy to install even with it being my first water cooling experience. Recently I believe the pump died in the radiator. Not terrible value but just expected a bit more life.
