about as simple as that. i’ve got an arctic liquid freezer ii 420mm (actually 458mm from end to end) and am having a tough time finding a case to fit it while still allowing the hoses to reach the cpu. i bought a thermaltake view 71 but am having to return it due to this cooler not working in it. the radiator can mount on the side and front, but with barbs down the hoses simply aren’t long enough to reach the cpu. also from what i can see even if i got it on the the top the fans would protrude down into where the motherboard would be and still wouldn’t work. nobtiba How to show phone screen on TV or bigger screen while the phone has to use device network to control the device? ( 2) unfortunately this only mounts 360mm on the top, and the front mount is too far away for the the hoses to reach the cpu. AIO : Arctic Liquid Freezer II 420 A-RGB. (offset -A, Top mount, Fan Set to exhaust, AIO came with the fans mounted as advertised). Plus, our sophisticated cable management hides the PWM cables of your radiator fans in the sleeving.
Just received, unboxed Liquid Freezer II, dropped in to the case from the top, to see clearance, so far looks good. Will update here once I put together everything.Arctic doesn't state how much heat wattage are they suitable for, but surprisingly they provide some comparison data. Have you noticed that both coolers achieve the same CPU temp on the graphs The illuminated P-fans are already mounted on the radiator from the factory. During the development of the new P-series fans, special emphasis was placed on a focused airflow and thus a high static pressure. The fans guarantee extremely efficient cooling, even with increased air resistance. Therefore, the P-series fans are particularly suitable for use on heatsinks and radiators. I recently upgraded my Haswell era PC to something more current, and with the addition of a 5950X to my system, I decided to do it some justice with the biggest cooling I thought I could fit in my PC without going custom water loop... As the title suggests, I hope to be informative about certain barriers along the way. The VRM fan clearly does something, and temperature improvements will follow the more even FPM on either side of the VRM heatsink, but we also want to be clear that a top-mounted radiator would also benefit the VRM. This is something we simulate in our test setup. VRM Thermals
Just had a look. With a 360 rad (or any 120mm based rad) on top, you will have the option to mount the radiator either flush with low profile memory or 20mm offset away from the memory. Should be plenty of room. Arctic has built, thus far, a good product. We need to see how it does long-term, as Enermax has scared us away from firm recommendations on thermals alone. We would recommend the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280 as a go-to solution over competing liquid coolers, based on thermal and acoustic performance, although we’d also note that most proven (e.g. Asetek, CoolIT) coolers will perform similarly. If you want RGB LEDs, you’re mostly just paying more for them, but should be in the ballpark for performance. The manual for the case has a good set of example configurations and dimension considerations included. Additionally, all coolers shipped by ARCTIC are already compatible with Intel's Alder Lake and Raptor Lake LGA1700 processors. This shows the delta in height, measured in microns, from a calibrated 0-point. The A500’s box plot shows the largest range, illustrating the chaotic levelness that hurt its performance, while the Deepcool Assassin III and original Wraith coolers have some of the best levelness. The Arctic Liquid Freezer II averaged about 8-10 microns depth from the 0-point, with minimums and maximums at 2 microns and 48 microns. The Liquid Freezer II has a couple deep points in the coldplate, but is overall closer to the smooth end than the unlevel end. Installation & MountingAlpenfohn Mount Doom K2 - Was used for an i5 4670K (7 years) and a 5800X (a few months, with an AM4 mounting kit for the Matterhorn...) Thank you for sharing this. I just bought this case and I think 420mm is too much for a first time builder, so I am hoping to mount the 360mm version of this AIO. Plus, our sophisticated cable management hides both the RGB and PWM-cables of your radiator fans in the sleeving. I've bought the 420 version but I'm surprised how little PC cases support it, so I started wondering what's the cooling performance difference.
