    Very happy with this MSI 240R V2 AIO Cooler

    This AIO was a "Roof of case" mounted Installation in my Rosewill SPECTRA D100, cooling a Ryzen 7 5800X3D which has a TDP of 105W. I used the Thermal Paste that MSI includes with this AIO. Installation was overall fine. In practice, most AIO's and even many larger Air Coolers require patience and this wasn't any different. The other main component generating heat in this PC is my graphics card which is a reference design RX 7900 XT. The Case has 3x 120mm front mounted fans with a single 120mm fan Exhaust at the upper rear of the case. Depending on the temperature of my room, this AIO is keeping the CPU to between 71C and 75C when playing Warzone 2.0 (CoD) for >2hrs. I do not have a comparison of cooling performance for the Vetroo V5 AirCooler I was using as the GPU, CPU and AIO were all upgrades made at the same time. From memory I think my V5 Vetroo temps were around 69C to 73C, cooling a 65W TDP Ryzen 5 5600X, with a PowerColor Red Devil RX 6800 XT GPU. Overall, very happy so far with this cooler. Very Quiet. Good loooking, and if you get it on sale, its a great deal. (Ninety Five bucks)

    Works very well and has solved my CPU cooling issues. First Mysticlight product I've purchased and the RGB works very well. Fans are very quiet and install was very user friendly.

    For only being a 2 fan AIO, this thing keeps my 7800x3d at around 37-41 Celsius. Maybe 50 under heavy load. Definitely would recommend. I build PCs for people one the size and I would definitely recommend this, even if you aren’t on a budget. Great bang for your buck.

    For a smaller cooler, it does a great job. I did change the fans in favor of BeQuiet! Silent wings with push/pull setup and got around 10c lower than with the stock fans and it’s much quieter now too so one star down for that. Considering I am running a 13900k on it and no longer have any thermal throttling while gaming I would have to say this little AIO kicks butt. The max I see pushing it hard as I can now is about 85C. Down from the 100C (max temp for 13900k) I was seeing before this guy on an air cooler. I would change the fans out from the start but otherwise am very happy with it. I have had it for a year now and have had great results with reliability.

    Great build quality, does great for cooling, but I have to upgrade from this to a X73 due to changing from an i7-8700 to an i7-13700k. Otherwise this AIO works great, kept my old cpu nice and cool. Will be using this for my wifes pc/dedicated server. Install was straight forward, it was my first time installing this type of cooler, and you literally follow directions, or youtube.

    Looks Nice, Though Not Worth the Price

    $100 to get in the door of aio water coolers is probably the best thing about it besides the rgb. Everything else I can say is negative and ultimately lead me return it and upgrade to an NZXT water cooler. It’s rather loud despite advertising its quietness. While this can be mitigated through setting fan speeds/curves in the bios, the negligible difference in noise doesn’t warrant the downsides of doing it (both that it requires manual calibration and it’s risky running a water cooler of this caliber at less than its default speeds). The other glaring issue in this regard is that the pump itself makes a very high frequency almost “buzzing” sound. If you wear open backed headphones or like to play games with speakers/monitors you will almost always notice this noise. You will also notice changes in the frequency when playing games and this can be both concerning and distracting. The actual performance of the cooler is mediocre at best, though it may be expected at this price range. If you run an older or less demanding CPU this may not be an issue for you, but if you have anything equivalent to intel’s 12th gen processors and above, I would highly suggest not using this cooler. A final and possibly petty complaint is with the wiring. While having one individual wire that runs from the plate is nice, everything else is a pain to manage and seems prone to having connections come apart. Ultimately I would spend a little more money and upgrade, or wait to find something better on sale.

    I’ve been using a beefy air cooler for about 2 years with a 5950x cpu, on a 4.7ghrz undervolt because taming the temps on the cpu were upsurd on air. I reconfigured my fan layout after installing this cooler and decided to you some really good artic fans on the radiator and used the fans it came with in the top of the case for exhaust. Ended up with an all core OC of 4.88Ghrz using minimal voltage . The cpu never gets close to 60c on air I was fighting 70-80c with lower voltage. Not sure how good the stock fans are with the cooler compared to my artic fans. Was only able to mount 3 fans to the radiator do to case constraints. Wish the tubing could be longer I don’t like the pump being on top of the radiator but it works fine.

    Definite pump coil hum straight out of the box, but a quick search and some custom BIOS settings fixed it easy. Quiet, cool, and looks so pretty.

    My cpu was overheating with my previous AIO, needed a cheap and quick solution and this MSI AIO came in clutch. First time installing an AIO so it was a little tricky trying to set it up with my older motherboard, took me 3 hours cause im an idiot but yeah it works great. I have a i7 9900k. The unit does light up, I just turned it off.
