Lian Li Galahad II Trinity Performance 360 AIO Review

Lian Li looks to assert dominance in the all-in-one liquid cooler market with the Galahad II Trinity Performance 360. Utilizing a new, thicker radiator design along with 28 mm fans, it certainly packs class-leading performance, but beyond that, it also has a host of new features and...

Arctic Cooling has been a consistant top performer over the years.

Most AIOs are pretty similar nowadays as a lot are Asetek rebrands, so will perform the same, with the only difference being the vendor fans that are supplied with it.

Also 'looks' make the choice harder - do you want RGB or a Mini-Screen on it ?

The ball park can go from a perfectly good performing 360 @ £120 ( Arctic Cooling ) to a £400+ monstrosity with a screen on the pump that cools worse ( Yes ASUS - You )
 
I have the same dilemma myself, I have 13900kf and want to replace the cooling, currently I have EK Elite. Initially, I considered the Corsair H170i XT, EK Nucleus 360 and Lian Li Galahad II Performance and after reading a few reviews, I think I will buy Lian Li Galahad II Performance. Cooling, although new in the reviews, collects positive opinions, it has the thickest heatsink of what I took into account, plus the price is also attractive. I will replace the fans anyway with the T30 because I have them mounted on the current cooler.

he probably would , but as long as it has some rgb he would be happy....been looking at the EK nuculus 240 to put in the roof of his pc. should be enough for a 5800x. any reasons not to get this???
 
I am also looking for a aio, i been looking and reading all over the web, at forums, review sites and watching review videos for like a month now, and from what i gather, the EKWB EK-Nucleus CPU AIO CR360 is one of the best, so i think im finally going with the dark version of this and not the rgb version, has no software or lcd screen, but thats fine for me.
 
Price per performance I would say artic freezer 2, I've had a few aios but this is very impressive and customer service is good.
 
I have just bought the EK-Nucleus AIO CR360 Dark All In One CPU Water Cooler from overclockers, from all what i have read and reviews read and watched, this seems to be one of the best, been looking on and off for like a month now, just need a power supply and keyboard to finish my build now, thx for suggestions here, i know its not my thread but been helpful, would like to know what @mr griffin has chosen.
