120mm AIOs are decent coolers (especially for less than 40 quid), but be in no doubt that, in most decent sized cases, they'll easily be outperformed by a high end air cooler, such as a Noctua NH-D15. These are NOT a cut price alternative to a 240, 280 or 360mm AIO cooler.

What these 120mm AIOs are good for getting the heat from your CPU out of a smaller case, or a case with restricted air flow. High end air coolers often don't fit (they're too tall) in smaller cases and don't work nearly as well if they don't have a good supply of fresh, cool air.

Anyway, heat added, a good price for a brand new 120mm AIO cooler, just make sure a 120mm AIO fits your needs :smiley:.

If anyone is ordering this tonight or early tomorrow... order it via the "Today Only" page and its £32.39, so a couple of quid cheaper :wink:

Mate of mine has one of these and it's performing fantastically well for him for the money!!! Voted hot :smile:

heat added very good price I am using the H2O 650 which is really good :smiley:

Great deal. Have some heat. :smile:

Tempting

How do you get free delivery from UPs collection, it says £4.79 for me?

Thanks i have not tried it signed in :wink:

I think it is postcode dependant, scottish highlands for example is £3.99 UPS access point. But mainland UK is free.

what is your postcode?

SE18 6GJ mainland LONDON! lol!

ah its £3.99 for me, once I actually select a store too.

Yeah mine shows £0.00 under UPS but I've tried my work address and family members address and can't find a free one!

well even at £3.99 postage its still a decent deal for sure.

Yep sorry guys, I did the same as cokeboy above, didn't select the access point and it was showing £0 delivery for me - DPD is only £3.33+vat though, have updated the post.

I wouldn't pick up from Barmy Bills - they lost a ups parcel of mine once and then claimed that I picked it up with a dodgy signature. All sorted in the end, but there's loads of better places to pick your stuff up from round here lol

The H1200 AIO 240mm CPU cooler is only £53.79 as well.

with 4 fans are you limited by what case you can use?

not a good cooler according to review, wouldn't use for overclocking.

Whilst I know a full custom loop with a massive 420mm radiator and Noctua fans is probably the outright best option for cooling (excluding phase change and other craziness), I couldn't bring myself to spend that much when a large AIO cooler will do the job nearly as well for a fraction of the price.

I have an H110i GT (now called an H110i, under Corsair's new naming system), which is a 280mm AIO cooler and I'm very happy with it. Using Corsair Link I have its stock fans set at minimum speed, which is 500RPM, and it easily keeps my overclocked 4690k under control whilst being practically silent.

Is this any good for a FX 8350, some reviews seem otherwise?

Excellent fan

Feeling hot hot hot..

This or a Hyper 212 EVO?

I'll be running an i5-4690K at stock to start with, will be looking to OC in the future though.

I'm looking to build a PC with a EVGA SuperNova 850W Gold, an Antec ISK600 ITX case, 390x or 970 GPU, a couple of HDDs, an SSD and a £100+ CPU. Would this water cooler be adequate considering I only have 1 120mm fan slot to work with?

Yes.

Cheers, I got an i5-4690K from CEX and it did not come with the stock cooler. So rather than getting the cheapest, I was trying to plan ahead a little.

What would you recommend for a good OC in the future?

Don't worry about idle temps, they really don't matter at all. Temps under load give a far better indication of the true capability of any cooler.

That said, as I suggested to the person above with a 4690k, you won't get the best out of a 6600k with this or a 212 Evo. Neither are designed for heavy overclocking, they're more for small overclocks or just being quieter than the stock Intel cooler when under load (though I understand the 6600k doesn't come with an Intel cooler).

I've easily reached the safe voltage limit of my 4690k with an H110i (a 280mm AIO cooler), but I suspect if you were willing to have your CPU cooler's fans run at more than the silent 500RPM I have mine set to, you could easily max out a 4690k's overclocking potential with a decent 240mm AIO, such as one of the H100i variants.

If you wanted to take the air cooling route, something like a Noctua NH-D15 would also get the best out of a 4690k, though you need good case air flow to keep it fed with cool air and allow it to effectively exhaust its hot air out of the case. If not, it just ends up recycling hot air, which obviously reduces its effectiveness.

I'll look at buying something bigger as you suggest in this case, will save spending out again in the future. Do you know if the stock fan on an i3-4170 would keep the i5-4690K cool enough at stock speeds?

I believe that all stock Intel coolers which have the same mounting hardware, which both being Haswell LGA 1150 chips the 4690k and 4170 will have, are the same. I know there are some exceptions for Extreme Edition chips, but that's not relevant here.

Therefore, yes, to the best of my knowledge the stock cooler from a 4170, despite being an i3, will keep a 4690k cool (well, within an acceptable temperature range), at stock speeds.

Oh agreed, if you are going for maximum OC then yes you will need something a bit more heavy duty, but for a mid/sensible OC both should be fine, obviously depending on how quiet you want your system to be!

Are these Antec coolers any more reliable or better than corsair AIO water coolers?
Thanks in advance

Will this help with noise reduction for my PC? I've got plenty of fans but I've also got a stock Intel cooler which I feel is raising the decibels under load.

I took the plunge and ordered this cooler for a new mini-ITX build am working on. Hopefully, it will serve me well. Never used an AIO liquid cooler or any type liquid cooling for that matter so am a bit wary. I wanted to get the Coolermaster Nepton 120XL but this was less than half price so it's worth a shot I guess, still wondering if it comes with additional fan screws for push pull configuration.

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS COOLER
