It's really nice to see someone test coolers in a real-world setup in today's day and age when so many reviewers just lazily use an open bench. Using an Intel platform was also a bonus for me, since my experience confirms that it's not so simple to choose a cooler based on mainstream reviews. The Arctic Liquid Freezer series definitely doesn't perform as well on Intel.

I bought the 360 version of this AIO based on your review.

Thanks, Albert!

Built with this just now on the basis of this review and strongly regret it. The AM5 mount is the worst I have ever seen in ~30 years of system building. There are saddle thingies that loop over the default bracket and they are difficult to clamp. And even if you manage to ratchet it down, you're never quite sure you've gotten a good fitment. Meanwhile, there are fifty billion demonstrations of AIO installs from Corsair, Arctic, etc but absolutely none documenting the install of this AIO on AM5.
