PUs are a hot topic this year.
Starting with the launch of
Ryzen and followed by Intel’s
Socket 2066 chips and AMD’s
monster Threadripper CPUs,
there’s never been a greater choice of chips
to have with everything.
Whichever you are using, you need to
keep it cool. Water cooling is ideal, and
an all-in-one liquid cooler eliminates
any faff.
We’ve grabbed seven popular
all-in-one coolers and tested
them using an AMD Ryzen
1800X running the Prime95
torture test. We measured
temperatures with the
cooler set to a silent
mode, where the
fans spin slowly,
and a more
uniform
standard
mode.
