Thermalright AQUA ELITE 360 V3 Liquid CPU Cooler is really good for the price

completed my son's new build with the
My basket at OcUK:

• 1 x Thermalright Aqua Elite 360 Black ARGB V3 All In One CPU Cooler (SKU: COO-TLR-03256) = £49.99

Total: £49.99 (includes delivery: £0.00)​

For under £50 it's bloody brilliant!
all the holes lined up perfectly, and it is taming a 9800 stress tested on Intel Burn Test at full throttle, with no problem at all, fans look great so far, and the lights on the block look great too, really good in fact, with rich, deep colours
just thought i'd mention it in case somebody is thinking about getting a budget AIO

 

[Zeebedy]

Yeah. I had that cooler in the past. Great value for sure!

What's the pump noise like?

It is brilliant isn’t it, I bought one recently for almost sub £40

What's the pump noise like?

On my Aqua Elite at 100% Pump, I can hear a “Gentle Hum” this is with the fans at 500RPM.

I fall in the camp who is sensitive to subtle noises.

I’m only cooling a 7600X so have turned the Pump down to 70% and it isn’t audible at all to my ears, still achieving super low idle temps, low gaming temps and low full load temps.
