About this deal

To simplify the selection and management of PC parts, we provide a platform that simplifies the process and provides you with the best possible setup for your computer. The CLC 360 did horribly relative to its size in the 35dBA test, although it does comparatively better at 40dBA in our Intel HEDT testing, but it does maintain a lead at its deafening 60.

Dive into a partnership that goes beyond transactions – enjoy additional Market Development Funds to fuel your marketing initiatives. The EK-AIO Basic is here to take the initiative among EK’s mainstream liquid cooling solutions, spearheaded by already-successful, chart-topping, EK-AIO D-RGB models. The EK-Hub was added to help with the cable management, offering multi-connection with up to seven sets of addressable RGB and PWM headers. If that’s the case, EK has a technical chart-topping performance with the 360 model (or would at least be close enough that they’re functionally the same versus a 360 LF II), and so choices get narrowed-down to a black-out design versus an RGB design. The block has a dimension of 88x70x53mm and is made of ABS plastic housing, copper cold plate and steel mounted pump.For comparison, we have included the rated speed of the fans to have reference in determining the Auto PWM range. The EK AIO 240 runs at about 54 degrees over ambient in our testing, which ranks it functionally equivalent to the Kraken X62 280mm CLC with the older Asetek Gen5 pump, while the EVGA CLC 360 and Kraken X72 show poor static pressure performance at the restrictive noise levels we’ve set. EK® Water Blocks, the premium liquid cooling manufacturer, bears the name of its founder Edvard König.

The EK AIO CPU water block features a full acrylic cover, acting as a light diffuser with its frosted finish, for a dynamic lighting display with smooth colour transitions.The newly updated coolers feature an aRGB-accented pump face with a cooling block pump based on an SPC line pump. To learn about our test bench and testing procedures, please see our detailed testing methodology article or video.

The EK AIO also uses a massive electromagnet for the pump, something we’ll look at in the tear-down. This makes Nucleus AIO ideal for SFX builds since its fittings offer a 90° alignment for custom braided soft tubes.And we see that materialize here: The EK AIO 360 is functionally equal to the NZXT Kraken X72, X63, and H115i Platinum. If anything happens to your item while it's in transit from our office in China to TechMovers, Manila, we will replace everything. Overall, the pump unit itself feels weighty and has a notable density that isn’t often present in many liquid coolers.

These performance-focused AIOs offer all the benefits of a water-cooling solution in a compact, easy to install, and maintenance-free design.This EK AIO comes with a universally compatible CPU water-block, along with a pre-filled pump-reservoir combo. Dynamic Addressable D-RGB lightingCustomise your EK AIO to match your set-up with its range of fully addressable D-RGB lighting effects. We can’t judge endurance from a review period, so we’ll have to keep an eye on how these coolers develop over years of use to see how EK’s and Arctic’s designs really aged.
