Enermax Liqmaxflo 360 AIO Review

The packaging is certainly nice and simple, with the awkward name front and centre alongside a clear product image as well as the all-important socket compatibility.

Whilst any AIO might look similar to any other, if you’ve seen as many of them as we have then there are elements on the Enermax Liqmaxflo 360 AIO that are immediately different. The fan blades, for example, are clearly larger than most as there are only five blades on each fan, and the blades themselves are much thicker than we normally see.

The pump is exactly where you’d expect, built in to the CPU mounting plate. Above that there is a magnetic fan which pushes air across the pump head and spills out the sides towards your VRMs. How useful you’ll find this is down to personal preference. We will tell you more of our thoughts in the conclusion.

One area the Liqmaxflow 360 in non-SR guise has going for it is the thickness of the radiator. 38mm thick is at the upper end and worth bearing in mind if you’re tight for space in the roof of your chosen case.

Topping up the coolant is the kind of thing that you can need to do if you’ve had it for a long time, and Enermax supply a bottle of extra coolant as well as an easy way to get it into the radiator.

Power cables are key, naturally, and here we perhaps get a glimpse into the areas that Enermax have used to keep that price point as low as it is. They’re absolutely fine, but clearly not got the same attention to detail or high-end elements of other power connectors we’ve seen.

This screw can be removed to open the port where you pour in any extra liquid you need, should the system need topping up.

Although the fans are RGB, there isn’t any software to control the lighting, instead having 10 preset programs you can change between. Worth bearing in mind if you’re the type who are a little obsessive about your in-rig lighting.
