CPS PCCooler DT360 ARGB Display AIO CPU Cooler Review

In terms of outright raw thermal performance with fan speed maxed out, the CPS PCCooler DT360 ARGB Display performs well. In our max fan speed test it's up there trading blows with some of the best coolers. Dropping the fan speed to hit the 40dBA noise normalised target has an impact on thermal performance but the DT360 is still performing on par with some good coolers so even with noise normalised it can cope with the heat output from a high end CPU like the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X, but we would expect this from a cooler that costs almost $250.

While on the subject of price, currently neither price nor availability for the UK market is available, but CPS is working on this as we speak so we might see this cooler available in the UK at some point soon. However at $250 it's not cheap, and it's competing with some better-known names in the market so it's got its work cut out. It has the thermal performance to complete but the LCD screen and the software are not up to the same standard as some of the big names like Corsair, Lian Li or even DeepCool.

The LCD screen is quite dull, the colours are not very vibrant at all and it suffers from glare from external light sources, so it's not the best-looking display. The software is also quite awkward to use, there are too many menus and submenus that you have to trawl through to edit and customise what is on the display, it's not a simple point and click which might quickly become frustrating for some users.

However, the installation time is quick, it uses all standard fans and ARGB connections so you can connect it up quickly to the motherboard. The RGB lighting effects on the fans are very bright without any noticeable light bleed, albeit quite subtle, which I like. So although the CPS PCCooler DT360 ARGB Display isn’t an AIO I'd rush out to buy but if there's a version without the LCD screen and say $100 – $120 cheaper, then it might be an option to consider. However at its current price there are better alternatives.

We found it on Amazon US HERE.

Pros:

  • Decent thermal performance in all tests.
  • Easy to install.
  • Looks neat with minimal fan cables.

Cons:

  • Software isn’t very intuitive.
  • LCD Screen is quite dull.
  • Loud at max fan speed.

KitGuru says: Decent thermal performance but the LCD screen lets this cooler down when compared to its competitors. The software also stands to be improved.
