I should point out this was not my only software problem with the Aorus kit, I had plenty of other instances of it hanging up trying to get a custom display, rotating the display etc. That goes into the garbage too and now, many hundreds of dollars wiser, I am using a custom loop with Argus Monitor and it's silent, quiet and 100% reliable. This one had a card fluttering (air bubble) sound no amount of tilting could get rid of. Then I switched to Thermaltake, who had been super reliable for me in the past. I could 100% reliably hang up the fan software. Finally used the MSI utility CPUID and it's CPU benchmark to prove the problem was as described.
Restart Aorus, and bam, suddenly the pump and fans spin up, and the pump display temp jumps up 25 degrees. Go looking in AMD Ryzen master, actual temp is a lot hotter. I'm thinking, wow, that's fantastic! OK, 10 minutes of playing later the fan speeds are flat, the pump speed is flat, display shows 28C. So, I start up say Vermintide, the screen on the CPU cooler shows 28 C. the software would freeze, and would require restarting the Aorus software via task manager. So, what's the problem? The problem is the fan/pump speeds are entirely software/USB controlled, and, here's the bug: If the CPU got too busy (AMD Ryzen 7 2800). If you don't mind it being completely unreliable, please buy this brand. On the plus side, the cooler is cold, quiet, and pretty. It was so bad that six months later I'm still angry about it.
I owned the 240 version of this cooler, and the software was dangerous CPU melting garbage. Admin said:The Aorus Liquid Cooler 360 delivers good cooling performance in a quiet package with a flashy customizable LCD screen atop the pump.Īorus Liquid Cooler 360 Review : Read more
