Regarding the Arctic Freezer II, I was concerned at the amount they slosh about when you give the radiator a shake. Never heard this with others, so makes me question the amount of fluid they've used. Along with the 2 years warranty, don't expect longevity.
I think Steve from Gamersnexus did a review of the 280MM and drained the fluid and I am sure it was a decent amount.
Yes, I saw that, looks like a good amount. But I can't get over the amount of sloshing that comes from the two i've installed (240 and 280). We'll see over time I suppose
I see the same mate with my 360 Arctic. I wouldn’t worry about it, just sounds like a lot of fluid moving around. Guess the true test will come in a few years.Yes, I saw that, looks like a good amount. But I can't get over the amount of sloshing that comes from the two i've installed (240 and 280).

On a side note, great coolers aren’t they.
I installed them over the past week, so hard to tell at the moment since we've had a heatwave
Installation on AMD was a bit of a pain, I don't like the mount for it.
It required an extra set of hands, and is much easier to install outside of the case, but it was relatively simple I found.I installed them over the past week, so hard to tell at the moment since we've had a heatwave

One of them (mine) was fine as the backplate was adhesive, but the other one I ended up taping on real good lol.
Both done within the case, the Evolv X is easy to work in, thankfully.
Just ran CB and doesn’t look great for the temperatures on my 3900X. With PE3 enabled and -0.0250v applied, it hit 80c.
I’m going to reseat it at the weekend see if that helps.

Yes I am, using a Ryzen 3950X, I will test tomorrow morning what temps I am getting g and will let you know.
If you're still getting 2 cores running 45c hotter than the others after replacing the cooler I seriously suspect you have a faulty CPU where the solder between the die and heatspreader is not making proper contact across the whole of the chip. I would definitely go back to OCUK customer services and let them know.
temps are getting better 6 of the cores are all in the 30 odds highest is 50 this is idle . it seems to that when playing games its only one core hits the 70 80,s but all the other cores are happy sitting at 50.. really class.
