So, we test the MasterLiquid Maker 92, with 92 being the size in mm for the fans and radiator used. The cooler is packaged well, cushioned and bundled safely in the box. Everything is clearly labeled. Included is an accessory box and guides.

Once unboxed you'll spot the cooling unit consisting of the radiator assembly with fan, brackets and pump all factory installed and fitted.

It is quite something to look at really, as this is a first in terms of design (that I have seen). This cooler has a rotating mechanism that can rotate the radiator/fan unit for vertical or horizontal air flow and smaller case setups. So basically you can choose between vertical and horizontal mounting configurations. Cooler Master's design uses push-pull 92mm fans with the radiator in the middle; this can rotate 90º to permit either a vertical or horizontal setup.

The cooler is an all-in-one self-contained liquid CPU cooler that is small enough to match most CPU heatsink sizes. The unit includes a merged pump and radiator that is positioned over the water block, the base is all copper and a mounting bracket has already been fitted. The unit is powered by a SATA cable, and one FAN header will lead towards your motherboard so that you can control fan RPM.

Unique obviously is the fact that you can swivel the fan/radiator unit into another position. Basically, depending on how you position it the MasterLiquid Maker 92 moves air downwards and, in theory, blows that air onto your motherboard, or pulls air through your case.

The included back-plate and mounting kit supports a wide variety of CPU sockets, yet remains limited as it is an Intel-only solution with socket support for LGA 2011-V3, 2011, 1151, 1150, 1155 and 1156. Overall you should be able to easily fit it as installation is easy enough. You will however need a bit of space around the CPU socket.
