While this cooler also comes in black, today we’re looking at the white variant, which is a nice change for me personally after all the black AIO coolers lately. Considering the simple contours of the cooling block with the pump, the extra white colour enhances the overall impression of a premium product.<\/p>\n
The structure of the Aquafusion ADV 240 holds no big surprises. The base of the cooler is a block that houses a pump with a ceramic bearing. I could go on and on about the dual-chamber design of the cooling block or the liquid shunt to reduce flow resistance, but it seems superfluous to me, because in the end it’s all about cooling effectiveness and low noise.<\/p>\n Moreover, the pump does not even have PWM regulation, fortunately it can be easily regulated by voltage. The top surface of the cooling block has an infinity mirror effect with the manufacturer’s logo in the middle and an RGB stripe around the perimeter, and will form the visual centerpiece of the entire build if you use a case with a TG side panel. The contact area of the cooler is copper and large enough to cover all current CPU types (except AMD Threadripper platform) with a margin.<\/p>\n The cooling fluid then flows from the block to the radiator and back via a pair of 400 millimetre long tubes, which are braided with nylon for protection and finished with swivel fittings in the block for easier handling, as is customary with these coolers. You’ll also find a protrusion on the radiator next to the end of one of the tubes that looks like a service port, but this cooler is maintenance free and sealed. It is therefore highly likely that this is just a fill port that is subsequently closed during manufacture.<\/p>\n The cooler’s accessories are not lacking anything essential, on the contrary, you will find a lot of useful little things \u2013 the manufacturer has really thought of everything. Apart from mounting frames for supported CPU models, you will find a variety of cables for connecting the RGB backlight of the cooler to motherboards of all manufacturers. If your motherboard does not offer a 5V ARGB connector, you can use the supplied hardware controller.<\/p>\n The user manual could be a bit clearer and the assembly itself could be simpler. For example, the screws for attaching the mounting system arms to the cooling block required quite a bit of force, to the point where I was worried about damaging or shearing off the screw head. Due to the slightly more complicated mounting, I strongly recommend performing the installation outside of a computer case with the motherboard lying on the desk.<\/p>\n The Aquafusion ADV 240 does not stand out from other AIO coolers in terms of radiator size, pump block or tubing length. The radiator used is aluminium as usual and its total depth with fans does not exceed 55 millimetres to ensure maximum compatibility with computer cases. The cooler is compatible with all modern CPU sockets except AMD Threadripper platform. The price tag is also acceptably low, so if the Aquafusion ADV 240 passes the tests, we are looking at another AIO cooler with an interesting price\/performance ratio.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/enermax-aquafusion-adv-240-01.jpg\")
