BUddy have guys reviewed the Asus Ryujiz 2 360? Have you got any problems with the temperature readings? I have one as well but the temps are way off. Run Cinebench with Cpuid the temps between the cpuid and Ryujin temp display are not match about 10c difference.
@River_Miles2 жыл бұрын
I like the idea of a screen on a pump block but not if said AIO uses proprietary connections requiring one to buy into one particular ecosystem. I was all in with Corsair until early this year with constant iCue problems from a modern late-2018 PC build since then. Their warranty is not worth my frustration with their software, which may have improved since then. Lots of great hardware out there from all manufacturers but I've learned all their software is horrendous, looking at you too ASUS!

I only have a 5700g so I don't need an aio. I do, however, have a small 5" lcd screen fitted in the corner of my case which I use to display cpu, gpu temps etc. Looks good and I love being able to see such info at a glance.

I have a custom Afterburner display on my Logitech G13 and find it very useful. I can see GPU temp, fan speed and RAM usage plus system fan speed, temp, CPU and RAM usage plus FPS all in one screen. When that eventually fails and I'm forced to buy a lesser gameboard, I'll probably look at adding a small screen in the PC, possibly in the PSU cutout in the shroud. I think JayzTwoCents has a good video on it.

Very useful review. Many thanks, Luke! I find the AIO's LCD displaying processor details a great idea and am looking forward to trying one of these (MSI S360 is another that comes to mind). A request/suggestion for a future article: It's been about on the internet that many AIO's have issues to varying degrees with mounting pressure and contact on the LGA1700 boards, with a resultant effect on cooling performance. It'd be fascinating if KitGuru looked into that issue. Love and appreciate the work you all do, many thanks and keep it up!

@dieseldrax2 жыл бұрын
My bigger complaint is AIOs without a built-in fan controller that operates based on coolant temperature. It's absolutely ridiculous to have the rad fans controlled by the motherboard based on CPU temp, which is not going to match coolant temp. For that reason alone I would never recommend an AIO like the Thermaltake in this review.
@kylestewart4444 Жыл бұрын
I appreciate RGB lighting in small doses. I'd say the vast majority of people grossly overdo it but RGB lights, if tastefully utilized, can look really great. Basically, I just really dislike RGB fans. Some models which just have a single lit ring around the fan can look good sometimes but fully lit impellers just look like crap to me. In my own builds, I typically use the lighting on my graphics card, CPU block/AIO pump, RAM and motherboard, albeit usually with brightness reduced, ideally through a tinted glass panel. I want to see the lighting but I don't want it to light up a dark room. But I've never once bought or used an RGB fan. I always go with fully blacked out Noctua or be quiet! fans. As far as I'm concerned, I don't want to look at my computer and see a bunch of fans. It looks cooler to me if the fans are virtually hidden in plain sight by blending in with the rest of the case. As for LCD displays on AIO pumps, I'm all for it. It's nice to have CPU and GPU temps easily visible at a glance without having to run an on-screen display for hardware stats.

Ok so I installed this cooler on a stock 10900k and I was seeing in gaming after a hour or two around 80-82c. I repasted it a day later because I thought I had mis mounted the cooler. No difference. Coolant temp definitely goes up Though, almost 55c in some instances so heat is definitely being absorbed. It also doesn’t help that I have a 3090 strix blasting it’s heat out the radiator and other exhaust fans. Under cinebench r20, and intel XTU stress tests, I see around 85c stock. If I use the “intel auto oc” it goes to 5ghz, and that bumps up temps to 95-97c under stress tests. I am running a MAXIMUS XII EXTREME and I am extremely inexperienced with overclocking and undervolting. I’ve tried following guides but all I get are blue screens even with modest undervolting attempts in bios. Does this seem normal for temps? Voltages can go up to 1.37 stock, using hwinfo64 to monitor. Should i be concerned? Does anyone have advice to undervolt for a newbie?

There are so many of these coolers in this ('Elite Catergory') nowadays. Corsair Elite LCD, Thermaltake Tough liquid Ultra, AORUS Waterforce, EVGA CLC-X, MSI CORELIQUID, NZXT Z Series, EK-Nucleus AIO CR Vision D-RGB (Not out yet but highly anticipated!) and finally, the ASUS Ryujin II. (New ASUS Ryuo Series just came out but think its not as premium as Ryujin). So I have a brand new i-Cue H150i Elite Capelix with the Elite Upgrade Kit sitting in my room for my new build but I am having second thoughts and thinking to go with the Ryujin instead.. I am a procrastinator of the worst kind! My main reasoning is that I feel the Ryujin just looks like it fits better in the board (ASUS ROG STRIX z690 Gaming A) especially, since they are both ASUS maybe. I also am quite drawn to the idea of having a VRM Fan and I know out of the bunch I mentioned, the CLC-X, Tough Liquid, CORELIQUID and the Ryujin have the VRM Fan. I also, would be looking to wrap the Ryujin in white hoses and possibly either paint or Plasti Dip it white since it seems the Corsair is the only product that has a white option (smh). However, what I REALLY would like to find out is just what kind of a difference there is between this Elite kit in comparison the the Ryujin when it comes to the Software Features? From afar, I get a hunch that the Elite is more elaborate but not sure as there's limited info. Has anybody used the two?

Screens in AIOs are the classic scope creep from manufacturers to stack on a bit (a lot) more profit margin. Is a little screen really worth £100? Thermaltake are even now offering a 360 AIO with a memory cooling unit as part of the loop for £380 (that's £120 more even than the AIO in this video), what a joke.

I hate unnecessary software packages that are perma-run in the background to run these kind of features, especially when the info they provide (like on these pump screens) is easily accessible within Windows anyway. I'll go as far as motherboard RGB software, I'd rather just attach a cable from the block the mb and be done with it. Icue, CAM, synapse etc... All can sod off. Fractals original Celsius with the radiator mounted fan hub and hidden cabling (within the tube sleeve) is perfect to me. Absolutely no software, no cable mess, it just works. AIO technology has peaked and units from established manufacturers tend to last for year's these days... This feature creep is designed to keep prices high and to generate more product cycles. I'd rather they spent the R&D money on improving heat transfer/disappation.

My cynical mind thinks that if it was possible for AIOs to fail after 1-2 years without risking water damage to the PC, they'd have designed that in by now to get more sales. And probably have reworded the warranty to mean it's not covered. The LCD screen might be their attempt to do that. I fully believe that Razer's success is built on that model.
