I don't generally like the look of air coolers or how they're a massive amount of weight hanging of your CPU. I also don't like how they can cause blockages and pockets for your airflow in the right circumstances. So my choice of using liquid cooling is more to do with visuals than actual performance. This AIO also has an easily accessible fill port, which extends your ability to keep the AIO in service, even though it voids the warranty. I still see that as an overall plus though. With that said.... the cooler itself is great in regards to it's performance. For an older Ryzen 2700 it keeps the system below 50°C even after 4-6 hours of max settings Total War Warhammer 3, Tomb Raider, and A Plagues Tale: Innocence.(Results may vary for you) My rig is also laid out for lots of airflow, which is way more important than many people realize. My only to criticisms are the stock fans, in general, and the pump noise at full speed. The fans are rather loud and feel a bit cheap, especially when compared to the Noctua fans I have been using. The pump can be a bit loud and may be heard over your fans in the case.(Granted I have really quiets fans) I turned mine down to 90% speed though and noticed a decent noise reduction for a negligible difference in performance. This really is a good first introduction overall for EK in the AIO market. I really hope they keep this up with later models. Review: Easy mounting, effective cooling - Installed the 240 non-RGB in the Meshlicious ITX case for a Ryzen 5900X on an Asrock B550 Phantom Gaming ITX/ax. I replaced the fans with Noctua ones only because they had better static pressure. I also oriented the AIO as exhaust, so temperature performance is mostly based from the GPU output (RX 6700xt Red Devil). The temperatures noted should not be taken seriously due to that as well as undervolted CPU. For installation, the parts were organized and labeled for both Intel and AMD cpus. Mounting the pump to the motherboard was very easy with effective instructions. The heat paste was also pre applied evenly with no defects. The tubing is protected by braiding and is flexible enough to route and secure. For performance, I undervolted the 5900X to 1.1v and 4.0ghz. The AIO was very effective at cooling the CPU and exhausting the GPU heat keeping the CPU around 50c during gaming loads and almost 60c during 3Dmark (Time Spy). Overall, the hardware, instructions, and the low area clearance on the motherboard itself made installation very easy. ## Features - PERFORMANCE COOLING, ZERO MAINTENANCE - The EK 240mm AIO Basic is an all-in-one liquid cooling solution for your CPU offering all the benefits of a water-cooling solution in a compact, easy to install, and maintenance-free way - INTEL 10th GEN, AMD RYZEN 3000 CPU COMPATIBILITY - Intel 1150, 1151, 1155, 1156, 1200, 2011, 2011-3, 2066 and AMD AM4.

They sellout of 360mm fast. **Q: Is this aio compatible or require modification to an asus tuf gaming x670e-plus wifi motherboard?** A: Yes, Nucleus AIO is compatible with AM5 motherboards. **Q: Does this come with everything needed to get started or will I have to purchase other things as well?** A: Pretty sure it came with everything. Aside from a screwdriver to mount fans/radiator. Should have paste pre applied and mine came with a small extra tube in case you mess up. You also need to keep your cpu mounting plate that came with your mother board. **Q: Ive been useing this for 4 days the 120mm aio version there is a slight pump noise whay sounds like a old hard drive reading is this normal ?** A: You need to remember when selecting the best orientation for your loop is that the PUMP SHOULD NEVER BE THE HIGHEST POINT IN THE LOOP. The pump has to do the majority of the work to push the liquid through the loop. So if you mount the radiator vertical make sure the tubes are coming out of the bottom of the radiator. If you mount it flat on the top of the case it doesn't really matter as long as the tubes don't get squished. So top mounting is easiest, verticle just make sure tubes are on the bottom of the radiator so gravity can help the pump ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great AIO for the money. *by C***S on May 22, 2022* So I bought this cooler to replace my aging Cooler Master Masterliquid AIO after seeing a few reviews, including the Gamers Nexus tear down of the 360mm version.

The rest fit like a glove after I affixed the bracket to the pump block with some heat resistant tape. Still worked awesome, between this and using Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut I shaved 10°C off my Ryzen 5 5600X temps vs. the stock cooler using Corsair TM-30... UPDATE: Edited review slightly after the AIO failed after 10 months due to a failed pump additionally 3 of the four screws refused to remain in. Tape fix began to fail as well. Since it's now past Amazon's deadline for support, going to see if EK will cooperate. UPDATE 2: EK warranty process was a breeze. The hardest part was reading the silver label on my original box because Amazon, but the instructions provided were easy, and within 72h I had a replacement unit sent out to me. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/283182571-ek-aio-basic-240mm-all-in-one-liquid-cpu-cooler](https://www.desertcart.at/products/283182571-ek-aio-basic-240mm-all-in-one-liquid-cpu-cooler) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
