Review Thermalright Grand Vision 360 Review: It’s not a competition, it is a massacre (again)

[FLGamer]

Any idea how the software actually works with this? I obviously read the issues another user on here is having, But have you had any? Also, What is with the ridiculous amount of similar/exact same products they sell on amazon? The one you linked is out of stock, So I search the name and I get 3 or 4 either similar or exact same products, 1 that is an elite vision, Why do they do this?

Outside of the issues I have posted, the software works good.

Also, the differences in a lot of them is ARGB fan types on the radiator, LED Screen sizes, or the actual pump placement. Some of the pumps are built into the CPU block, some of the pumps are on the end of the radiator.

I personally didn't experience any problems with the software.

Indeed that is quite annoying. Thermalright's Hyper Vision AIO is inferior to the Grand Vision, but if you were to look at the units it would be hard to see any difference.

I was looking into this AIO and I noticed that there was no mention of a refill port, as is mentioned in this review, on from any source Thermalright or otherwise. I contacted Thermalright's support, and they denied that the existence of a refill port on the Grand Vision, as well as stating that any attempt to refill the AIO would result in voiding the warranty.

Can anyone verify that the Grand Vision actually has a usable coolant refill port under the sticker?

Generally speaking you don't want to mount any AIO with the tubes at the top. This will cause more air bubbles to get into the loop than you'd usually want. Ideally you'd want to mount it with the tubes at the bottom. That being said I'm not sure the tubes on this one would be long enough for that.

False! That's a myth. How many times this gonna have to be debunked? Look at video below and particularly at 10:09 (Jaytwocents's message is for you).

Once the air gets trapped into the inlet of the radiator it doesn't go back into the pump. It's not possible. It would have to go down and up through the radiator and get out from the outlet. There's no way it can happen. So as long as the pump is lower than the top of the rad there's no problems.

I have to say it again: how an AIO that does not have a liquid temperature sensor can even exist in 2025? That's the main appeal of those coolers. The fans don't cool down the CPU, they cool down the liquid, so the fan curve has to be set with the liquid temperature. And once you do that, no noise anymore. The fans speed up very slowly with the liquid temp and you don't have those annoying bursts.

Without that, it's just like having a air cooler with 3 fans on it.

Just wanted to mention, the pump is located on the top of the radiator in this cooler, not in the cpu block.

I have done some searches and many results have popped up claiming that the pump was in the middle of the radiator. That is entirely false. The pump is definitely located at the top of the rad just behind the tubes.
