This prevents radiator damage, which can result in the possibility of a leak. Because of the thick protective foam, cable terminals and sharp objects are nowhere near the radiator. The same is true with the Aorus Waterforce X 360 as well but just in a larger box. This provides good protection to the water-cooling unit and its accessories during shipping. Overall quality of the packaging is high with a thick protective layer of foam. The packaging to the Aorus Waterforce X 240 is well thought out.

*If assembled in AORUS chassis model GB-AC300W and GB-AC300G must use cooler’s accessary kit “r” screw to install the radiator. *To Enable Video upload function user must use Micro SD card.

Let’s take a look at the specifications to both of these units below. Gigabyte has sent us the X 240 and X 360 models for this review. Using the Aorus Engine and RGB Fusion 2.0 software, users can customize performance settings, RGB lighting effects, and upload gifs, custom texts, images, and videos to the LCD screen. There is also a 60mm x 60mm LCD screen on the water pump, which has a 330 degrees manual rotatable design. They also have support for various Intel and AMD sockets, including Intel’s upcoming Alder Lake CPUs for LGA 1700. The Aorus Waterforce X series also come with 380mm long water tubes, which are enlarged to 7.8mm for quicker heat dissipation. These coolers come with ARGB fans with Graphene Nano Lubricant, which increases the life of the fan by 2.1 times compared to a double ball bearing design.

This series includes the X 240, X 280, and X 360 models. The Aorus Waterforce X series liquid CPU coolers are Gigabyte’s newest addition to their thermal solution lineup.
