Swiftech H320 360mm AIO

Originally I'd been planning on getting an EK or XSPC 360 kit but, given the time needed to properly install one of these kits I put it off for ages. I also looked at 240mm AIO kit's like the H100i but, I really like the prospect of expansion offered by the custom loops so put that purchase off too. Also, I feel my Monolithic Lian-Li deserves a 360....

Anyway, found a random review of the Swiftech H320 AIO (Full 360mm rad with options to expand) which really grabbed my attention. So, I bought one

arrived yesterday & installed it last night. Took about 2 hours to do as I had to re-orientate the fans to pull as I didn't have the correct screws to mount the rad directly to my top panel & had a bit of a tidy up in there too

.

Currently run a [email protected] which idled at 46C under a Zalman 9700 & peaked in the 80's under load. With the H320 installed it's idling between 26C & 31C across the cores and under load running Prime95 it's peaking at 49C

Not bad at all, although probably too expensive at £167 delivered :rolleyes:

Looking forward to finally upgrading to Haswell or an FX in the next few months.

Unfortunately, I only took a single pic of the box...

Was a bit loud initially but have tweaked the PWM settings to quieten it all down and it still chills my Q6600 nicely. Only issue was the chipset without the previous airflow it enjoyed tended to overheat after an hour of Arkham City :rolleyes:

Dug out the chipset fan and it improved considerably. Even googled a waterblock for it since the kit is expandable

Cheers I did read bringing the voltage down would cut out some of the noise so that's my plan but will try a 6 x fan push pull and see what temps I get on my 4770k
