Cooling 198 Published by Hilbert Hagedoorn 56

teaser
 After extensive research, Noctua has launched its NH-D15 G2 series of air-based coolers. These new models provide superior cooling performance while maintaining low noise levels. However, the cost has increased, with each set now priced around $150, which is quite steep and comparable with a lot of AIO Liquid Cooling solutions. This raises the question: Is the product worth its price?

Today, we are reviewing a 360 mm variant of an AIO cooler from the Asus Ryujin III 360 ARGB. We have had a chance to check both the first (over five years ago) and the second (two years ago) versions. There are two sizes to choose from in this Ryujin III series - 240 mm + 360 mm (the one reviewed here), and two color variants (white and black). Also, the “regular” Ryujin III (non-ARGB) again has Noctua IndustrialPPC (PPC-2000 PWM) fans, like the Ryujin I/II.

Besides that, this company, the sister brand of iBUYPOWER, offers a keyboard, desk pads, case fans, and a headset. The only size of this AIO offered now is 240 mm, but the THICC Q80 (with 360 mm radiator) was already announced/presented at the Computex.

The last cooler from this Taiwanese company we had a chance to check was Enermax Aquafusion ADV 360 + 240 mm (and they earned the “Approved” award). Liqmaxflo presents a brand new approach from Enermax, as the radiator is now much thicker than the typical 27 mm and measures 38 mm and has a VRM fan built-in in the pump-block part ((like, for example, the Arctic Liquid Freezer II/III).

 Today, we are reviewing a 420 mm variant of an AIO cooler from the Arctic, Liquid Freezer II 420 ARGB. We’ve already covered the A-RGB 360 mm version and 240 mm 2 years ago and the non-RGB 280 mm – 3 years ago. This time, it’s the biggest available version, and it will be checked on an AMD Ryzen 7900X and 13th-gen Intel i9 13900K (previously, it was i7 4790K and i9 9900K), so it’s an up-to-date setup.

It is made of aluminum with a copper plate, like the block for the CPU. Both have an ARGB mirror design.

teaser

Today, we are examining an air cooler from the Deepcool: an ASSASSIN IV. As the name would suggest, it’s a successor to the Assassin III, which we covered almost four years ago (time goes by quickly). Again, the main competitor is the “classic” Noctua NH-D15. Last time, it was more or less a draw. How will the fourth edition fare with an Austrian competitor?
