DeepCool LS520

DeepCool’s LS520 is the strongest 240mm AIO cooler I’ve tested. It’s capable of cooling Alder Lake in most situations with no power limits enforced, and it’s also nicely priced.

Product details

  • High-performance DeepCool LS520 SE CPU liquid cooler improved the 4th generation pump’s microchannel design to optimize coolant flow, the three-phase brushless motor up to 3100RPM combines thick pure copper plate maximizes overall cooling efficiency.
  • New structure LS520 SE dual-chamber pump brings the cool liquid into the cold plate chamber to cool the CPU first before circulating it through the motor chamber to cool the motor, which makes the motor more efficient dumping less heat into the loop.
  • LS520 SE CPU liquid cooler combines the 4th generation pump with high-density radiator and two strong fans to provide 280w TDP efficient heat dissipation, ideal choice for overclock gaming PC building
  • LS520 SE AIO pump block features DeepCool new narrow frame design, the aluminum alloy shell features anodic oxidation coating which builds a premium appearance with nice rigidity and avoids aging problem caused by humidity after long-term use
  • LS520 SE AIO equipped with DeepCool’s Anti-Leak patent technology, the pressure-relief device in the top of radiator vents inner air pressure caused by high temperature to block potential leaking accident after long-term use
  • DeepCool FE120 5v-3pin ARGB fans each up to 2250RPM offers 85.85CFM airflow supports the powerful air cooling system with noise level under 32.9dB(A) in full load; With the low-speed adaptor in package, the fan specification will be 1600RPM offers 60.85CFM airflow with 28.2dB(A)
  • LS520 SE CPU liquid cooler radiator measures 282*120*27mm with 13 rows of fins and fin density about 24 fins per inch to realize the heat dissipation efficiently with two high-speed 120mm PWM fans

PROS

+ Strongest 240mm AIO I have tested
+ Capable of cooling 230W+ with Alder Lake
+ Unique fan connection system
+ User Customizable Face Plate

CONS
