EK Predator 360 AIO CPU & GPU Liquid Cooling review

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 11/05/2015 10:46 AM [ 23 comment(s) ]

EK is back and this round with a massive 360 Predator series liquid cooler. We test the Predator 360 on a Core i7 4790K processor and will add a Radeon R9 Nano to the all-in-one liquid cooling loop. The end result is terrific as even overclocked our graphics card would not even pass 40 Degrees C. The nice thick radiator, proper tubing and an excellent water-blocks that are pre-filled and fitted kit are downright terrific.

Above you can see the kit we received, for an extra 25 bucks it comes with tubing and quick disconnects and already is factory installed and filled with coolant, we can sincerely recommend you that. The kit now comes prefilled and included are screws and thermals paste and thermal pads.

now i searched their site, however could not find any options so far for ordering prefilled gpu blocks. any chances you could point me where such requests can be done. also do you think that the 360 could cool a 980 gtx SLI configuration as well?

thanks and regards,

great review hilbert!

thank you very much, was only waiting for this review in order to complete my shopping list for my next pc.

a small question though: in the review you state that you have requested a nano block with QDC and prefilled.

yeah their site can be a bit confusing. We received this kit from EK. It (filling) was mentioned on the invoice .. perhaps drop a note to their customer service as I am sure they will be happy to help you out.

And yes, it will easily deal with CPU and 980 Ti SLI.

Yeah indeed, if the a 55x55mm GPU can run 36 Degrees C and the processor is doing 58C - that shows how average the Intel heat-spreader really is.

it is... but considering delit will incrase the overal temp of the liquid and so of the GPU too...

so double the circuit is a good point too

pfff it need too much money for a good cooling lol

Great review, very informative. The extra info on the Nano block was a great addition!

Unfortunately it won't fit my current x58 system

but I will look at this setup on my upcoming build. It does make it look bulky, but I like the time saved with the quick disconnects.

Great review Hilbert.
