Good review and although EK are kings when it comes to full on watercooling I think the AIO arena is best left for companies with more experience like Corsair, Fractal and NZXT.
Its a shame they don't do a 120mm version. I reckon I could do something neato with that.
Go wash your mouth out
For me personally and my needs, I feel the only benefit the Predator 240 has over the competition is the quieter pump. If Asetek and competitors (not that Asetek will let anyone compete) can develop a compact pump that doesn't grind like a 'chop-shop' mechanic, this particular unit would lose its main appeal. The 360 makes more sense as you could add a GPU and have your main components water cooled for very little money and hassle. But the 240 variant is mostly going to be used for CPU cooling only, which has a lot of competition. The only critical point the EK has over its competition is, in my opinion, the superior pump. While the EK looks better than the Swiftech or Triton coolers, the Corsair GTXi models look really stellar. I prefer the braided tubing.
Reliability actually, yeah, you're right. That's a big plus that I didn't think of.Better pump,better block.....more reliable......
Need I say more?
