INTRODUCTION
Even though AIO liquid CPU coolers may have reached a bottleneck in performance (at least with current technology) thanks to the many differences between models (not to mention cost) there's always room for improvement. To be completely honest I always place cooling efficiency before everything else and even though yes, I do enjoy LCD screens on AIO models I don't consider them a must, not if performance just isn't there. So basically, when Montech reached out and asked if I'd like to test their HyperFlow 360 ARGB AIO Liquid CPU Cooler my sole concern wasn't that it didn't look as great as some other models but rather what cooling efficiency it could output.

As expected, the latest HyperFlow 360 ARGB AIO by Montech is available in both black and white colors and in 240/360mm sizes. The combination also remains the same and so the HyperFlow 360 ARGB consists by an 397mm long, 120mm wide and 27mm thick aluminum radiator, three Metal Pro 12 120mm ARGB fans (2200RPM / 76.2CFM / 3.81mmH2O / 29.1dBA), 400mm long braided tubes, high-speed 3100RPM pump with gemstone like ARGB illuminated top and a copper coldplate. Typically, the ARGB LEDs located on both the pump top and the three Metal Pro 12 fans are compatible with all the leading motherboard sync technologies (ASUS Aura Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, MSI Mystic Light and ASRock Polychrome Sync) and as for warranty Montech offers a somewhat rare 6-year limited one. So, time to see just how good the HyperFlow 360 ARGB really is.
