Installation

Getting this cooler installed was as easy as you might expect, as Antec hasn’t really tinkered with the format here. The mounting kit screws to the motherboard easily enough, and you simply screw the Intel or AMD plates to the pump, allowing you to fit it to the motherboard. If you’ve ever done an AIO install before, you know what to expect, and if it’s your first time, it’s honestly pretty simple.

The radiator is 360mm, which is obviously quite large, so make sure your PC case actually supports it. However, that too is easy enough to install, just a few screws to hold it in place and you’re good to go.

With everything powered up, the ARGB lighting effects are simply fantastic. I like that Antec has gone for a ring lighting effect on the fans, and basically blacked everything else out. It’s colourful and bright, but still more an assent light. I prefer this to fully lighting up the fan blades, but that’s obviously subjective.

It’s the same on the pump, rather than everything being an overly bright disco ball, it’s more subtle and lights up the interior of the pump.

The colours are great, and because there’s a high density of LEDs throughout, you get really cool colour fades and transitions throughout.

So, with all that in mind, let’s get on with the testing!
