It still runs the cables hidden under the sleeves of the tubes, but now also has 5V aRGB. The fans have rubber vibration dampers and sleeved cables for PWM and aRGB.Ī striking feature is the hub directly on the radiator, which is already known from the old series.
Unpacked and unbagged, the S36 prism is definitely worth seeing, even without illumination.

Full points for the really comprehensive offline documentation!
#Fractal design 360 aio manual#
The 32-page, multilingual manual contains well illustrated installation instructions as well as the full data sheet, tips on airflow in the housing, cleaning of the radiator, fan curve of the automatic profile and easy troubleshooting. On the side are the exact dimensions of the radiator and base compatibility, the back describes the most important features in 5 short texts.Įven at the risk of slowly resembling a hanging turntable in this part of the review, the usual remains to be reported: A cardboard tray safely encloses the water cooling system for transport and apart from the fans, everything is individually packed in plastic bags. The fans and the pump block, which are kept in colour, form a strong accent to the otherwise black and white surfaces and the lettering. The colorful aRGB variant also comes in a rather plain cardboard box typical of Fractal Design. Whether the new Celsius+ S36 Prisma can prove its worth you will find out in the following review. There is no spillage in the selection, a proud 6 variations with 240 mm, 280 mm or 360 mm radiators as well as black or aRGB fans are sent into the race.
And since 2020 seems to be the year of the AiO new editions in addition to the year of the catastrophes, a revised versi on of the in-house Celsius S water cooling system from 2017 is now being brought onto the market alongside Cooler Master and Corsair. Maybe there will be decent updates on the top or back in white.In addition to EK Waterblocks, there is another well-known company in Sweden that can count AiO water cooling systems among its portfolio: Fractal Design. You can just get a glimpse of the components and the 3080 FE presents itself well. But the dark tinted glass is really dark. I cut down on LED because usually doesn’t like flashy lights in my room. Everything fits with proper cable management. The 240 AiO just was too tight on top and the was no Filter so the Noise went also up. I wanted something compact and the R4 became so spacy because all the HDD and ODD went missing over the years. That time I remembered the Compact again and decided to build in it nearly from scratch because the old system should keep intact somehow. I wanted to use it with an 360 or 280 Rad. Last week than I won the “lottery” to buy a 5900X in that 1min Time Slot. In December I got lucky to get my hand on a 3080 FE in a time where my Vega64 starts to break down, which decided the future color scheme.

The internals became something like Frankensteins monster…Ģ019 I bought the 3700x with the not really good x570 gaming edge wifi because of the free included 240 AiO. I was looking for cases for a while now and loved the compact when it got released but I never got over it to switch from my 8-year-old still also lovely R4. 360 AiO just fits perfectly with my 3080 FE.
