Review on Water Cooling System for Arctic Liquid Freezer II 420, Black/ARGB by Jnis Kokins ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

In general, I must admit, it makes no sense to take something larger than the LF-II 240\280. The gain in t° will be 2-3°. I took 420 simply because it had to climb, judging by those case data (NZXT H630), and the final price for it was 1200r more expensive than for LF-II 240. Its pros: - the price is 1200r more expensive than the 240mm option, at least on the KU. And in general, the price is less than 7k in all deliveries. Finding another 420mm dropsy for such a price is not realistic. - Quiet and efficient. There is no need to set everything to high speeds, there is no difference from almost the minimum in my opinion. Nevertheless, at the maximum, the pump itself is much quieter than on the first generation (I had an LF-240) - native valves seem to be fine too, but above 70% (per Asus MB) they are already noisy, which is not surprising - the model is relatively high-speed (1700rpm). - someone whines at a small fan that it is noisy, but I have it even 100% quiet . ABSOLUTELY. At the same time, it really cools the VRM, judging by its temperature sensor. It is only necessary to install the water block so that the fan is not on top, but on the left if you look at the motherboard. Where on 99% of the motherboards there are most of the BPM phases of the processor. With its cons: - everything is powered from 1 connector, it's not convenient for me, I would separate the pump and turntables for separate adjustment. - I had to disassemble the inner upper wall of the case in order to install dropsy. For 240 \ 280mm this would not be necessary. - a huge and uncomfortable water block.
