    Works and looks great. Perfect AIO if you’re looking for both aesthetics and performance. The screen on the AIO looks amazing. I had a 240 version. Picked this one up and I’m not disappointed. NZXT knocks it out of the park

    This sucker runs as cold as as John Candy in Cool Runnings. Switching out the fans to RGB custom was a piece of cake and save me some money since I already owned the fans. The digital screen is obviously the big win. It was a piece of cake to install and it actually has a direct connect with Giphy so the amount of images is endless. Having temperature overlays on top of the GIFs is a win as well. Definitely worth the cost.

    This is a great cooler, I love the LCD screen included! I replaced the fans with F120 RGB DUOs on my build. Temps are great and max I get is about 45⁰C! I think this is very overpriced in terms of the screen, if you don't really need it or don't have as much of a budget then this is not worth it, just go with tbe infinity mirror cooler from NZXT. Was pretty easy to install too!

    Great AIO, always decent enough but not top of the line. The fans are good but could be quieter and I am already looking to replace mine with Noctua A12x25’s. The cooler comes prefilled but definitely has air in it so at some point you’ll need to purge it or drain/refill it but as long as you spend some time working the air out of the pump and to the top of the loop, you’ll be fine. With these 360 radiators, the purge point of the loop is in the pump so to drain/refill, you’ll need to take the pump head apart. Short of building a full custom loop, these AIOs do the job and at a half decent price, so if you’re in a rush or lack the experience or desire to source individual components for an AIO, this is a great option. The GUI for the pump and fans is obviously the NZXT user interface so you’ll need to add that to your suite to be able to control the pump speeds and fan speeds as well as monitor temps. It’s free so it’s no big deal, but plan your P.C. around that and your life will be better. You’ll need a USB header on your motherboard so if you don’t have a spare USB header, look into getting whatever additional components you might need to add more headers if you’re already maxed out….either through a header to USB adapter or NZXTs USB header hub to expand your probably limited header options. I purchased two AIOs and chose to rewire them to use a single header so that’s an option for you as well. ****Pick these up in store if at all possible.***** I had them shipped to my house and the packages arrived EXACTLY like you’d get in the store just with a shipping label slapped on them. I’m shocked they weren’t stolen. USPS did no favors to the package either and it was pretty beat up when it arrived at my doorstep.

    Keeps my processor cool under intense loads, display is beautiful. Only downside is that NZXT Cam is a terrible piece of software to work with, so changing things on the screen can be difficult.

    After buying this I noticed an improvement to the temps my rig was running at. Before it was roughly 50c to 55c now I'm lucky to see it go over 40c! Great product
