Potential quality control issues.

I have plus or minus 20 years of experience building and repairing my own personal computers. This is the first water cooler I've ever used and maybe the most annoying build in a long time. Every screw hole on either side of the rail was either improperly drilled or misthreaded, or possibly clogged with the paint they put on it. In any case, I had to manually rethread each of them in order for me to use them (on both sides of the radial!). I don't think that's acceptable. Other than that, it works fine once I've actually been able to install and use it. The LEDs look great, and more importantly, I'm running about 10-15 degrees cooler than the stock Ryzen-chip Wraith cooler. Maybe I'm just unlucky with QC, but fixing the issue was painful and very annoying. If I could do it again, I'd probably wait for new reviews to come out or choose a different cooler.

Pros
  • Expensive but decent
Cons
  • Embarrassing
