Virtually the only expandable AIO in the OZ market with G 1/4 connection.
There are other model such as Kelvin S24 but impossible to find as it is too old.
Normally $159.
Pump rate as 450l/h. Just for reference the alphacool eisbaer has a pump 70l/h (https://www.amazon.com.au/Alphacool-Eisbaer-Cooler-240mm-Rad…)
Some custom water cooler with this:
Bad side:
The black plate design my need some work as showed below:
Beware the radiator is aluminium as all AIO in the market.
Can't use any copper water cooling bits to expand because the metals react.
Most AIOs come with a copper cold plate though.
This is true, some use copper CPU blocks, so they end up having to use ethylene glycol as coolant which can slow down galvanic corrosion but its not 100% effective. Basically it means the AIO system has a finite lifespan.
@FuRyZ: In this case, the aluminium is the only affects, right? The block will be with no damages, correct?
Most waterblocks on the market are copper or nickel plated copper. If you add them into a cooling loop with an aluminium radiator, it can cause galvanic corrosion which will slowly cause the radiator to self destruct. Luckily there are now aluminium waterblock options on the market. EK for example started selling the EK-AC line.

If you are interested in reading more, this link has a lot more indepth information regarding copper vs aluminium watercooling loops.
The block can be aluminium but the problem is you need to put fitting made of aluminium as well, it is a pain.
100% agreed, aluminium G1/4 fittings are difficult to find. Its why EK released a full line of aluminium components including fittings.
Looks like the fans need to be replaced because they are fibbing about the static pressure. Saw a review of the 360 version and it was pretty mediocre. Looks like it doesn't mount correctly and temps are worse than smaller AIOs.

Agree. May need some work. The block/pump combo is the master in this AIO. Such a rare thing to find nowadays
Yep, my thoughts exactly. I would buy the kit for the block/pump, hopefully all the internals including the impeller are copper just like the block. Remove the rad and replace it with a copper one. The 450l/m flow rate will easily handle a 240/360 rad, CPU and GPU block in the same loop.
I am doing 2x240mm radiators plus gpu and CPU. Hopefully it works fine. All into a mini itx case.
I received the item.
First impressions: wow, huge box, huge block/pump. Very well made. Fittings are beautiful. Definitely it looks a premium hardware despite small flaws.
Whats to worry about if all AIOs follow the same?
