Cooler Master MasterLiquid Lite 240 CPU Liquid Cooler - Dual Dissipation Pump and Dual 120 mm Air Balance Fans

I bought this item to replace the original water cooler in my desktop pc. The old unit was making very loud noises and the core temperature was approaching 100C causing instability. Fitting the new unit was fairly easy, the instructions were pretty clear and brackets for different systems were provided along with those I needed. After fitting the unit the core temperature was maintained around 30C and the cooler was virtually silent. Very happy with the unit and the delivery.

Update: RIP 2019 - 2025

Pros: Easy to install for AM4 socket. You don't have to install back plate for AM4. Pretty clear instructions. Standard installation. Comes with thermal paste. No annoying RGB Better than the Ryzen Wraith cooler. CPU die temp never go above 60 degree (usually below 50 degree Celsius.) Cons: You have to screw the cooler down forcefully. No extra screw. PS I didn't use the fans came with the cooler. I used the Corsair fans as others have complained about the noisy fans.

Works great in my 5800X Ryzen 7 build. Running Cinebench, the CPU never got above 79 degC. Playing Halo Infinite, the CPU never went above 57 degC for the 2 hours I usually play. In my 3700X Ryzen 7 build from 2 years ago using the stock Wraith Stealth air cooler, the CPU would hit 84 degC running Cinebench. So, I bought another one for this system and it cooled the CPU down by 6 degC running the same test. It also improved the Cinebench score by 25 points. The pump and fans run quiet and would most likely buy these again for future PC builds.

I replaced the OEM fan that came with the Intel CPU. This cooler dropped temps down at least 10 degrees overall, which should help the CPU last longer. Installation was easy, as long as your pc case is designed to acommodate the radiator and fan. Fan and pump are very quite. Good buy.

I bought this for my new gaming pc (Ryzen 7 1700, RX 580 8gb, 16GB Corsair 3000mhz RAM). My CPU temps never go above 40.

I was disappointed with the quality the moment I opened my package, the master cooler box was heavily damaged and the cooler itself also damaged. the pump seems to work but is very loud I'm looking into getting something else and refunding this one. My i5 runs at 50 degrees usually which i so not like

everything needed was included. Thermal paste, various screws, etc. Took a little time to find the right screw for my installation but it was easy to install.

A nivel de ruido, que es por el motivo que lo instalé, es sensacional. La instalación requiere desmontar la placa base, por lo menos en mi caso, ya que mi caja no tiene acceso a la parte trasera de la placa. Los cables son suficientemente largos, está en la parte frontal de una caja que admite gráficas de hasta 430mm y llega justo, pero llega. Buenas compra. El procesador a pleno rendimiento no ha pasado de 50° y es un i5

Um pouco chato de instalar se vc tiver gabinete apertado, não é tão silencioso quanto eu gostaria. As temperaturas se mantém bem baixa em jogo, não passam de 40 graus no meu i7 4790

I got it on a very good deal. However while testing my 14700K on Cinebench with this cooler, the cpu thermal throttled 4 cores out of 20. The fans are powerful. Room Temp is 26degrees, I get pc idling is on 35degrees. Browsing and opening several softwares simultaneously the temps are between 35 and 50 degrees Celsius. While gaming I do get 85 degrees. The cooler doesn't have RGB however the logo gives out white light. I do recommend it.

I bought this to replace an older, similar Cooler-Master water-cooled heatsink which had broken down (pump failure) and the difference was immediate and very satisfying. I bought my original intel-based tower system back in 2015 with the express intention of having a quieter box because the whine from the cooling fans was giving me a headache. So when the new (in 2015) system arrived I was very happy. Unnoticed by me, the tower box slowly got noisier because, I presume, the heat pump on the CoolerMaster system was gradually failing, causing the paired fan to work harder to compensate. Eventually the system fell over with a hardware failure message, identifying a "CPU Fan Failure" which I interpreted as a pump failure since the paired fan was still spinning. The CPU temperature was creeping up from 68 dec C, 69, 70...so I powered it off before the thing melted on me. I read the previous reviews about this system having a noisy pump but I had to get a replacement quickly and this one was one of the few available with Prime delivery, so I took a chance. The kit arrived with all the parts necessary for 3 different Intel mounts and an AMD option, plus a small tube of thermal paste to apply to the interface between CPU and heatsink. There's more than enough paste - I didn't quite use the whole tube. NOTE: if replacing an existing part (as opposed to building a new system) you'll need to buy a two part paste removal and cleaning kit to take the old paste off first. With the new heatsink in place, my system sounds like it did when new - ie amazingly quiet! The maximum CPU temperature I've seen since fitting it is now 38 deg C. I can't hear the pump clicking, but my box is under my desk so I'd suggest that's not a issue unless you have your tower box next to your face - in which case the pump noise is the least of your worries....

Dislikes: The fan does not have directional arrows so installing it was a trial and error thing. Installing it in pull exhaust (blowing out off the case) position was a bit annoying. no way to attach the fan to radiator first and then attach to the case. (You can attach the fan on the inside of the radiator and then attach radiator to the case, but I wanted the fan on the outside). Wish there was a way to change the color of the logo from really bright white or turn it of completely. Likes: Quiet Ran a stress test on my Ryzen 5 2600 and the temps did not even get to 50 degrees. And my case does not have the best airflow.
