I’ve found that top mounted AIO radiators can interfere with the RAM depending on models of the RAM and the case - i had a Corsair build with a 220 case, Vengeance RGB Pro RAM and a 240mm H100 AIO and I could not mount the AIO on top without bumping into the RAM (same parts fit in my 4000X case)

GN did a great video about having the tubes at the top on a vertical radiator. The tubes should definitely be at the bottom, so the air sits at the top of the rad. Whereas when the tubes are at the top the liquid will “trickle” into the barbs and causing a gurgling noise and not feed the pump sufficiently.

One tip I could offer, if and when you decide to swap your air cooler for an AIO cooler. Run your pc before disassembling the air cooler to make the old thermal paste unstick from the cooler. I didn't do that and it was a nightmare getting my cooler off my CPU it was essentially fused and I risked damaging my CPU and the socket.

One thing Jason somewhat mentioned but could easily be over looked; It's very important for your pump to run at or near 100% speed. A mistake I made when I first got an AIO was match my pump speed to my fan curves which started at 20% and ramped up to 100% at 80C. Pumps can miss behave or not function if they are set at or below 30-40%. Even though the pump would reach 100% voltage at 80C since it got too little voltage at boot it wouldn't reach full speed causing the CPU to run an extra 10C hotter under load. Pumps work best the faster they can pull heat away from the cold plate!
@PCBuilderChannel
@PCBuilderChannel 2 жыл бұрын
Yes always best to run the pump as fast as possible as it is essentially free cooling without much noise difference compared to having to run fans faster. Just like fans, pump constantly changing speeds is what causes the most wear.

@@larrykrappenschitz9926 Unless you see an extra set of holes where you plan to mount it I doubt it will fit. Yes, you can set your pump speed with software 3rd or 1st party software, but I'd recommend only using those while testing noise levels and once you've found your sweet spot plug it into bios and save it to a profile. Make sure to uncheck PWM(and or Smart mode) if it's an option, it'll be in the pump/fan control section, it'll cause fluctuation in current to the pump but you just want it at a static speed. It's fine to have it on your fans but not the pump, otherwise your temps will be unpredictable. What brand motherboard do you have?

Exactly. That at 6:35 is the best solution with the hoses at the bottom, to avoid cavitation and air bubbles, and the fans pulling air, instead pushing it (like is showing in the video). That's how I installed my 240 system three years ago and still working great. Excellent video.

This is a very good beginner's summary in a quick and concise video. Kudos. My main issues with AIOs is the lifespan as you mentioned. With so more mechanical components, there's much possibilities of failure than a simple fan failure in an air cooler. Even if the pump and fans all last to their rated capacity and beyond, the issue of eventual evaporation of coolant sets an eventual limit. (The Bequiet Silent Loop does allow refill though its cooling performance is average at best in exchange for low noise). I have encountered way more AIOs fail or simply reached EOL than a simple heat sink fan which often outlast even the socket the CPU is mounted on. Also lastly, this a pet peeve of mine but a lot of cases can't mount top of the line 280/360 AIOs on the roof with clearance for motherboards due to VRM heatsink being too big or RAM size. I kinda wish there is more standardization on this on the amount of free case height above the motherboard.

Vertical mounting a GPU can cause problems due to the GPU fans being too close to the side of the case and not giving them enough airflow. Other issues can come from the flat cable that connects it to the PCIe slot. GPUs really like to be plugged right in to the motherboard.

I have a 5800X and a custom loop setup. The CPU water block runs through a 240mm top-mount with two fans in a push config. During gaming my CPU temps seldom hit 60°C and I see no throttling. I think maybe an AIO is less efficient than a custom loop (because of having less water available to soak up heat.) But if you match the power draw of the CPU and the power capacity of the radiator, you'll be fine in either case. The max power for the 5800X is 219W, so a 240mm AIO with a capacity of 200W+ would be fine. But you have to pay attention (and pay.) The Arctic Freezer II 240mm AIO can handle that much power dissipation. Cheaper ones would have a problem, and would lead to CPU throttling at max load. If you want a cheaper AIO then yes, a 360mm radiator would be a better option.

The 5800x3D doesn't need that, I have mine running an all out 100% heavy all core load at under 75C on a 120mm AIO. But I did change the fan to a very efficient (and quiet) one that reviewed well. I simply balanced the fan speed to avoid rising temperature at full load, which also evacuated air from the case fast enough to allow me to switch back to a solid top instead of mesh. The Gamers Nexus review showed 5800x3D had large efficiency gains in their tests, partly due to the new Zen3 stepping which improved the metal layer. The max PPT is 142W and the TDP 105W, not exactly requiring Intel class cooling.

i ran an NZXT kraken 280mm AIO on my fx8350 for about 7 years, then moved it with NZXTs bracket to my gtx970 for a year, and then on to a 2070 for another year and it was still going strong keeping the 2070 running nearly 2ghz at 55-57 degrees Celsius in games when i went to a full custom loop a couple weeks ago.

I did a huge upgrade back in January and I have not been disappointed. However, if I can change anything, I'd go from a CPU fan (beQuiet) to an AIO. When I upgrade to DDR5 (assuming X570 MB's support it in a few months) next year, I'm investing an AIO as well. I highly doubt I will change my CPU (AMD 5900) or GPU (3090) for a very long time. Thanks for the thorough breakdown!

Thank you for a wonderful detailed advice. Question: I'm planning to install a NZXT Kraken G12 GPU cooler with Kraken X53. My case is Fractal Design G ATX Mid Tower and my CPU AIO is Corsair H100i Pro mounted in front. Would I get uncomfortable temperatures if I relocate the Corsair H100i Pro on top and have it blow the air outside of the case while mounting the Kraken X53 in front while sucking air inside the case? What do you think and what do you recommend? Cheers

Been using aio cooling since my AM3+ Vishera 9590 days. Now I'm using an h-60 in push pull in a Fractal D7 case. Thinking about getting an ID frostflow 240 to match the case theme. Just concerned about maintaining a slight positive airflow. 2x 140's up front, 1x 140 underneath knowing it's help is restricted by the case mesh but it's really to help cool the 6700xt. Then 1x 120 on the rear panel, then the 2x 120's on the aio should do it. Cheers.

Thanks for this. I have question that you can hopefully answer. I have a 280mm GPU AIO exhausting at the top, a 240mm CPU AIO pulling in through the front and a 120mm exhausting out the back. I want to mod my side panel with 2x 140mm fans, 1 blowing directly onto the GPU and one more towards the front. Would you suggest that I then change my CPU AIO so that it exhausts out of the front instead, since it will be fed with fresh air from the side panel fan. Or should I just leave the setup as it is and have both the 140mm side panels pulling fresh air in.
@STAG162
@STAG162 Жыл бұрын
interesting how you suggest to mount a twin fan (240/280mm) at the top in an exhaust config. the Corsair manual I have suggests that the best way for optimal cooling is to orient the fans in a pull config for a top mount, thus making the case highly positive pressured, considering three intake fans at the front and one exhaust at the rear. I like positive pressure case configs but I'll settle on a neutral at worst case.

I was almost finished and realised after I installed my air cooler (because I feared the water cooler) that it completely ruined my aesthetics. I wasn't happy after all this time on my project so I pulled it all out and ordered a AIO that's coming today. Why didn't I watch this one!!! 😅.

I recently installed a be quiet pure loop 240mm aio and replaced the 2x fans that came with it for 2x Phanteks T-30 120mm fans. I went with a top mount config in a Fractal Meshify 2 case and it is very silent and cools my Ryzen 5 3600 cpu oc to 4.3ghz all core @1.275v very well. I think be quiet's pure loop series of aio's have something good going for them with their in-line double coupled pump directly on the barbs/tubes rather than in the block head or the rad therefore allowing for more configurations/installations due to the in-line pump. I appreciate the informative video and keep up the great content my guy.
