Where’s the EK series of AIOs and custom kits? Gamers Nexus named the EK aio’s as having the highest cold plate uniformity, flatness, and mounting pressure which plays a big role in cooling performance.

For instance, I see the old Corsair H110i GT and the current H115 PRO 280mm series at the top of the pack for cooling performance on other websites such as guru3d when they do a roundup of coolers. But that one is not even mentioned here. It's also not as expensive as some other offers on here, especially since it goes on sale often.

Mine may have been bad luck, in 2016 I bought a PC with a Kraken X31 for my i7-6700K, in December 2021 NZXT changed it to the M22 model because the pump started making noise.

A few weeks ago the processor began to heat up more than usual, the pump began to make noise, only when the PC was turned on.

I changed the PWM cables to other connectors on the motherboard, changed the thermal paste, moved the pump to try to remove the air bubbles, the radiator in a vertical position does not make noise, but it still does not cool well, I am waiting for what tell me NZXT, but I'm afraid it will be time to change dissipation.

I am surprised at the lack of coverage in general for the H170i series of AIO coolers. You would think that with the 420mm size it would do very well. In general on the Web it is hard to find any head to head reviews on actual Cooling performance by these series of coolers. I just started using 3 of these. So far so good, but I still wonder if some of the ones listed here cool better.

I suspect it's compatibility. No cases locally supported 420mm for me and online they were ugle or front mount (subjective of course).

But most cases I see are 360mm

My god I haven't replied to one of these articles in a decade (ignore my username, I was young)

This article is somewhat contradictory to the one posted last time AIO's were rounded up. The EK NUCLEUS 360mm was chosen as second to the galahad II. Why has it not been included in this review ? All around conclusion is that it is the second best AIO on the market due to it's noise level, cooling performance and radiator size. The arctic is massive and is slightly above in temps versus the EK nucleus. Whilst I cannot give a link to tomshardwares own review of it, I have no idea why it is not included, very strange.
