INTRODUCTION
Whenever someone asks of me what i first look for in an AIO liquid CPU cooler my answer is cooling efficiency and well that's always been the case for me. Yes, looks do matter as well but although you can accept high cooling efficiency without looks you can't possibly accept looks without high cooling efficiency. What happens however when you come across an AIO liquid CPU cooler that looks like no other (almost) in the market? Would you be willing to forsake cooling efficiency if it came down to that? Well, that was my very first thought when almost two months ago I landed on the web page of the ML-ULTRA360 AIO ARGB Liquid Cooler by Mars Gaming.
Mars Gaming is the leading international brand of advanced technology products. Manufactured to the highest quality and performance, yet at the most competitive prices, through the use of sustainable materials and manufacturing technologies and the maximum optimization of all manufacturing and distribution processes.
The ML line of AIO Liquid Coolers by Mars Gaming includes the PRO and ULTRA versions both of which are available in 240/360mm sizes (the ULTRA is also available in both white and black colors). The ML-ULTRA360 (tri-fan) variant which i have here with me today delivers a TDP (thermal design power) of up to 650W (not a very realistic number of course) thanks to their 3rd generation Opti-Chamber, high-performance ceramic pump (3200RPM), 397mm long and 27mm thick aluminum radiator and the three fluid-dynamic bearing 120mm fans (1800RPM/69.2CFM/26dBA). What steals the show however is the infinity mirror ARGB pump top and the two 370mm long Teflon tubes which are wrapped inside removable ARGB sleeves/covers. Needless to say, both the top of the pump, the ARGB tube covers and the three 120mm FDB fans are all compatible with 3-pin ARGB technologies such as ASUS Aura Sync, ASRock Polychrome Sync, Razer Chroma ARGB, Gigabyte RGB Fusion and MSI Mystic Light. As for warranty Mars Gaming backs all their product lines with a somewhat standard 3-year limited one.
