This is one of, it not the best AIO you can buy when it comes to pure thermal performance. I have. the 240mm version of this AIO powering my 5950X, and it maintains great temps. Personally, I would pick 360mm but when I was building the rig ~2 years back, I couldn't find the 360mm in-stock anywhere.

I just want to share my experience with one variant of this product. Pretty sure I had received a bad one but who knows.
I had purchased the 280mm ARGB 2 years ago for my friends 1st pc build. It was unfortunate that it leaked and got all over the gpu in around 4 months of use (this was even more disappointing due to the gpu shortages, thinking we lost his gpu). I spent 2 weeks scrubbing, washing, bathing, dipping and everything for his gpu as I just wanted to be sure I did everything I could for him. It worked and we were happy the liquid they used did not damage it.
Arctic customer service was very time consuming. Took almost 8 months to resolve after contacting them.
Took anywhere between 2 weeks to 1 month+ to reply to my messages, had to re-explain everything whenever they changed to a new representative to handle my case.
4 months in to finally offer me a refund or replacement but at that point I wanted a refund as I had purchased him a new cooler a month into this.
2 months later, they verified and assured me my refund will be going through (reason: I purchased it through amazon and there was some error in communication between the two).
1 more month, finally got my refund.
Took a lot of patience and messaging them but I was finally glad they honored their warranty.
I probably wont buy another one of their AIOs but was glad the liquid didnt damage the gpu and that they stuck behind their product. Hope this doesnt happen to any of you.
