A shot of MSI Unify + 5950X + Liquid Freezer II 360, kinda chilling I can't see much difference between top and bottom parts which have uneven cooling. VRM fan is a nice addon in my opinion. It would be good to have an option to disable it, if someone gets a defective unit / it breaks. In this sample, it's not a concern even with PSU fan off. At least for now. @Timur Born what did you use for measuring the sound signature?

@Ven0m One can disable it easily, just unplug the wire, it's under there, exposed. Just like any fan.

Iphone + app, so a better mic would catch these better. I only measured once I heard the noise, not the other way around.

Timur Born:

Overclocking a 5900X is mostly useless from a power vs. performance perspective as diminishing returns kick in fast and hard. Best you can do is to leave everything but Curve Optimizer alone, and even then you risk instabilities.

When the new Noctua 140 mm fans are released I will likely replace the fans of my AF with those.

whats peoples temps with this and a 5800x? i expected a little better than the h150i due to the bigger rad thickness, but temps are very similar. Also quality control is pretty poor, first one had a split wire on the fans, second one had something loose rattling around in the pump, im on the third one now which is working ok, but dont hold out much hope it lasting 6 years as per warranty lol.

if they were all like yours, AC would never offer 6 years warranty. You just had bad luck, or bad delivery service, god knows what happened to your units. 😏Anyway, AC LF2 are among the top 3 AIO systems ( and #1 if we compare price to performance)

well, obviously it would be a suicide business model that we would have all heard of by now. :S
