While being completely silent in operation, the pump still seems to have the power to provide high-performance cooling on thermally demanding CPUs such as the Intel Core i9-9900K that is equipped to our test bench. Checked the paste application multiple times and apart from some not ideal high spots / low spots, didn't noticed anything significant.

Also comes with a fan/rgb hub for the fans and rgb to make it more convenient for you and keep your cables a little bit neater in your case.

Cabling to support the operation of the pump unit includes an aRGB lighting header for the EK logo backlighting and a 4-pin PWM for pump impeller control. We think, frankly, it looks like it was made in someone’s shed on their 3D printer, but that’s not particularly relevant to its performance. Redid the testing and got the same results (high temps for EK, low temps for Corsair), so I can assume that backplate installation was not an issue. Most AIOs make use of a push configuration, meaning the fans force air through the radiator to dissipate out the back. What’s also nice is the block comes with pre applied thermal paste and even a small tube of extra thermal paste for replacement later down the line.

AIO Systeme anderer Hersteller sind teilweise mehr wie 4 Jahre im Einsatz und laufen immenoch wie am ersten Tag zudem sind diese um einiges günstiger. During our extreme overclocked test with the Core i9-9900K configured to an all-core frequency of 4. Tom's Hardware is part of Future US Inc, an international media group and leading digital publisher. After testing both the 240mm and 360mm versions of the EK-AIO in this review, I can confidently say that EK’s claims are correct. The fans are PWM controlled with a speed range of 600-2500 RPM and include standard 4-pin power cables and 3-pin 5V addressable RGB motherboard connections.KitGuru says: EK Water Blocks has put its vast knowledge of custom liquid cooling to use in producing a very competent, maintenance-free all-in-one CPU cooler that offers the necessary thermal performance to tame even the most powerful desktop processors. This product requires enough space to mount a single slim 360mm radiator, making it compatible with almost all modern cases. After spending 3 days re-doing the mounting and trying different procedures for installation and thermal paste application, I got the same results. I can't comment on whether it is worth the extra cost over other 360 AIO's but I'm happy with it so far.

PWM and aRGB lighting control of the EK AIO Elite 360 D-RGB are managed via the provided fan hub to simultaneously control lighting and fan speed for the connected components, which can include the pump. Ultra-durable design with diamond-cut rotary fittings – The EK AIO comes pre-installed with reinforced and sleeved rubber tubing, each fitted with an aluminum cover to ensure they’re ultra-durable. EK-Vardar S is our first choice for radiator cooling, providing unmatched cooling performance, with fully integrated and customizable D-RGB lighting. When powered, the EK center logo shines with the same aRGB lighting accents seen on the pump housing. The arrow marking on the 3-pin LED connector is to be aligned with the +5V marking on the A-RGB (D_RGB) header.With a pump and radiator shipped pressure tested, it is pre-filled and sealed directly from the factory to provide maintenance-free operation for years. Use of these and any missed payments may affect your ability to obtain credit from Klarna and other lenders. Rubber tubing used in the EK-AIO feels very firm to compress while still being supple enough to manipulate into tight bends quite easily without kinking. Currently, the EK-AIO is available in three sizes ranging from a single 120mm fan version up to a flagship triple fan 360mm variant, with a 240mm radiator model sat in between the two.
