Amazing cooling. Without usage, it stays consistently at 29, browsing the internet and videos max 32, and in gaming max 42 without making any noise at all. Installation is very easy and it also depends on what case you have; I have a mid-range ATX motherboard and it fit perfectly.
When it struggles, a noise is heard that is not bothersome when playing. Maybe it is synchronized with the box because when I press the top part of the box, it stops...
Very good cooling, I have it for 2 years and when I play games like GTA V, Fortnite, etc., the CPU temperature is 27-35 degrees (I have a Ryzen 5 2600). Just after 2 years, it makes noise that can barely be heard, and if you have headphones or you're listening to something, you won't notice it. I highly recommend it
In AMD RYZEN 5, maximum 42°C degrees! And of course, it is QUIET because I installed it correctly, please see the installation instructions first because it doesn't fit as we want!
It is the 2nd liquid cooling from this company and the last one, it was leaking liquid on the graphics card and luckily it didn't damage it, now only air cooling and I am very satisfied
I have it on a Ryzen 5 1500x overclocked to 3.9 GHz for 3 years now. My fans burned out from the first week and I replaced both of them with cheap PWM fans. I have never seen temperatures above 60 degrees, even during stress tests or heavy gaming. For a 60-dollar product, it's great.
I bought this liquid cooler to give my 3600 a little boost since the air cooler it came with wasn't doing much. Since I plan on getting something better in the future, I decided to try the CoolerMaster lite to see how it performs and to save some money since I'll probably give it away later.
First of all, everyone is right about the fans being useless. I replaced them with two Arctic P12 CO PWM PST fans and the system is completely silent. If you want to know why you should get these fans, read their reviews.
The build quality is mediocre. The radiator, tubes, and CPU cooler seem fine (hopefully they last), but the screws and metal plates that you attach to the cooler and motherboard are of poor quality. One of the two screws that secure the cooler to the processor came loose after a few turns, and I had to apply pressure to make it catch somewhere below, fearing that I wouldn't be able to screw it all the way in. Luckily, I was lucky, but if I remove it in the future, I won't have a second chance and will need to find another screw.
Now, onto the cooling aspect. It lowered the temperatures by 10 degrees, which gave me some extra room for overclocking and peace of mind that I won't fry my CPU, but don't expect anything extraordinary.
Overall, this liquid cooler is in line with the saying "you get what you pay for." For 60 euros, you get slightly better cooling than the stock cooler, you can add an RGB fan for fun, the cooler looks nicer with the LED lighting up the CoolerMaster name, and you fill up an empty case. But that's about it...
Well
- You throw away the 2 fans it comes with.
- You buy 2 artic PWM fans costing 10 euros+.
- It cools a ryzen 7 2700x oc at 4.2ghz 1.35V.
- Temperature is 23 degrees in Windows, doesn't exceed 45 degrees in games, and doesn't exceed 52 degrees in video editing.
- Aida 64 full load for 4 hours didn't exceed 62 degrees.
- The fans work in strong mode but DO NOT MAKE NOISE LIKE THE ONES THE COMPANY PROVIDES.
That's it.
Owner of this specific AIO for almost 1.5 years. It is installed in a Coolermaster Cosmos S (a case with unobstructed airflow) and cools an overclocked Xeon X5650 at 4.0 Ghz, replacing a Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme air cooler (I would say it performs slightly better than a Hyper 212 Evo) . So far, it has been functioning without any issues.
I will start with the clear negative aspect that others have pointed out, the noise. The fans that come with this liquid cooler are really terrible. They emit a piercing, annoying frequency even at low speeds. So, for anyone considering purchasing this model, I highly recommend buying two Arctic F12 PWM Fans at the same time, which cost around 4-5 euros each and I consider them to be the ultimate value-for-money fans. With two of these fans installed from day one and set at around 50% speed, I have achieved completely silent operation and very good cooling.
UPDATE: After 2.5 years of use and during a repaste on the processor, I discovered a similar image to this one on the bottom of the block: [link to Reddit post]. Surprisingly, the Reddit post is about a similar Coolermaster AIO, and there are other similar reports if you search on Google.
This likely indicates a very slow drip-by-drip leakage, which had formed this green residue around it. Fortunately, I caught it before the problem escalated and started leaking, causing damage to other subsystems. In my opinion, avoid cheap liquid coolers in this category and opt for a quality air cooler instead, which will practically have the same performance.
I have been using it for 6 months.
The pump makes a noise when starting the computer.
I believe the noise is due to the pump having less liquid inside.
I keep the fans on low because they are noisy.
Satisfactory cooling temperatures.
Satisfactory for the price.
It remains to be seen how long it will last.
2-year warranty.

The pump broke and liquid spilled on the graphics card.. which no longer works, huge damage!! Stay away.. go for air cooling guys, it's not worth losing your entire PC!
I have to deduct one star due to the noise. It is a very good kit, beautiful, high-quality, sturdy, easy installation and all. However, these fans sound like a 747 turbine...
Good but its fans are unbearable, they produce noise throughout their range, I have them with a hub at low speeds and they still sound a lot... Of course, don't think that any other liquid cooling system for 60-70€ is silent! Consider buying extra fans to calm your ears down, and to achieve even better temperatures...
Well guys, I've had it for 2 months now, along with the Ryzen 5 2600. In terms of temperature, I am more than satisfied for the money I paid (63E with shipping). During a Prime 95 stress test for 6 consecutive hours, it didn't exceed 62 degrees. The good thing is that the PC has stable temperatures at idle, unlike air cooling! Be careful with the case, because I have a midi tower and it was really the first time I said that something doesn't fit in my case (Aerocool Quartz RGB). It was very difficult for me to install it without touching something else, like the refrigerator or the cables. Now, regarding the sound, I never cared about how much noise the computer made as long as it was at a good temperature. Well, that changed as soon as I did the first boot. Just to give you an idea, I have it in the living room and I can hear it from my bedroom with the door closed. It may seem like an exaggeration, but I repeat that I never cared about the noise no matter how loud it was, but this is beyond the limits that anyone can tolerate. It's worth the money and it's a very good purchase for 95W processors. It can easily support small/medium overclocking without any issues, just order 2 120mm fans along with it and you'll remember me :). In terms of gaming, it never exceeded 50 degrees in Hitman 2, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Jurassic World Evolution, Destiny 2, PUBG, AC: Odyssey, and Frostpunk. Only in WoW, where I multibox 8 accounts and the entire PC is at 100% CPU/RAM/GPU usage, it reaches a maximum of 54-57 degrees. I hope I answered some questions that I myself would like to know before buying it.
Edit: Almost 2 years later, with daily usage at around 100% due to Multiboxing, it works just like the first day and the PC is full of dust... What else can I say about this thing, I don't know...
It is good for its price, but the fans make a lot of noise. In terms of temperatures, it keeps the Ryzen 3 1200 at a minimum of 19 and a maximum of 23 degrees. In gaming, it reaches around 30 degrees.
I have it only for 2 days. The Ryzen 5 2600 cools well, reaching a maximum of 48°C while gaming, but the noise is unbearable, guys. The fans are fine, but the pump is even louder than my air conditioner. Personally, I regret this purchase at 63 euros. It's worth getting something better with more money, so you can keep your head quiet...literally. 3/5 stars.
Update 11/19: It has redeemed itself. The noise stopped a few days later. One year later, I can say it's a beast, even with the Ryzen overclocked to 4.1GHz at 1.37V. After 5 hours of gaming with the game running, it reaches a maximum of 55 degrees. 5/5 stars!
Update 6/13/20: For about 3 weeks, the pump made a grinding noise, and eventually, it broke. It didn't even last 2 years.
Combined with:
- i3-8100 where maximum temperatures reached 55 under pressure
- i7-8700k where it keeps it idle with browsing usage at 35. Under relative pressure, it reaches 70 (without overclocking).
It is the best you can get for this money and competes with more expensive constructions. Its fans were replaced with others as they make a little noise that bothered me. Of course, this is subjective.
Quite a good cooler, it lowered the Ryzen 1600x temperature down to 18 degrees even with a Google open, and the usual temperature it plays at is around 25-28 degrees... 32-35 degrees lower under heavy load... I bought it exclusively for its liquid cooling look, at this price you can get an air cooler that can achieve better performance... its materials are so-so but acceptable... in terms of noise, it is generally silent but occasionally you can hear the pump humming softly
I have it with i3 6100 (I put it purely for aesthetic reasons but okay I wanted it to be a little cooler) at idle it is 17°-25°, at full load 39° and in gaming 28°-47°. For 61€ it is very high quality and sturdy, it gives you everything in the package, even a few ml of paste. The installation in the DeepCool Duckcase V2 I have was easy, the only thing that required a little more patience was screwing the pump onto the motherboard. Also, the fans are noisy but will be replaced soon. I highly recommend it!
In Ryzen 1700 at 3.9 1.3v, but with bequiet fans, in stress test with aida64 peak 71c, silent and idle 26. Quite a quality and beautiful for its price. The fans are placed in the case or inside the PC and at slower speeds to avoid being heard. ++
I have the AMD Athlon X4 950. With the stock cooler from AMD, the temperature at idle was around 45 degrees. With this liquid cooling, the temperature at idle does not exceed 26 degrees. I really like its construction, it offers great value for money and it is one of the cheapest in its category. I give it 4 stars because its fans are quite noisy even in silent mode.
