Antec Kühler H2O K240 Review

Rating: 8.0.

When building a new system, you have either the choice of the stock Intel or AMD cooler (if provided), or travel down the aftermarket route. This can open up a host of options. Air or liquid, size and price all need to be considered and it can be tricky to peg down the one most suited for your chosen need.

Antec has attempted to address this with a competitively priced 240 mm AIO liquid option – the Kühler H2O K240. This cooler supports a multitude of different CPU sockets but does look less flashy than the host of available RGB LED options. At £59.99 it looks to be offering good value for money, but today we find out if that is the case.
