Appreciate the look at this one, because while I view it the same as the Hyte with giant screens the pump seemed like it might be interesting.

Seeing as Cooler Master advertises this one's pump I don't know whether to laugh or be sad that there's weird pump control behavior. Based on the specifications on their site it has much higher peak power consumption which one would assume translates to more head pressure. Barring the radiator being saturated that should mean better performance, but without being able to independently control the pump it seems useless.

Hopefully this will be fixed with a future software update. If it is, I might revisit the cooler again in the future.
