Phanteks Glacier One 360 MP Liquid Cooler Review

Phanteks has gotten a pretty good reputation in the cooling world the last few years with its Glacier products. While custom loop water cooling has gotten more and more popular, the majority of users just want to bolt a cooler in and go without all the difficulty and perceived risk of a custom loop. Phanteks hears you, and today we get to see that awesome middle ground known generally as an All-in-One liquid cooler. Introducing the new Glacier One series of coolers! The Glacier One family starts with four coolers, a 240mm model, 280mm, 360mm, and a special white 240mm version bundled with Phanteks Halo fans. Today we’ll be looking at the biggest member of the family, the Glacier One 360 MP. This 360mm cooler provides the most surface area and most fans for handling the biggest and baddest builds around and even your overclocking adventures with ease.

PC Test Bench would like to thank Phanteks for sending over the Glacier One 360 MP for us to check out!

Phanteks take on the Glacier One 360 MP:

​ The new Glacier One all-in-one liquid CPU coolers are capable of cooling powerful CPUs while operating silently. The included 120/140mm MP PWM fans offer high airflow, low noise, and excellent cooling performance with its pressure optimized fan blades. Installation is a breeze thanks to the pre-filled all-in-one solution, flexible braided tubing and Tube Clips that help routing the tubing and fan cables for a clean PC interior. The Glacier One features a pump cap design with a tempered glass infinity mirror and integrated D-RGB lighting. Simply connect to a D-RGB equipped Phanteks chassis or motherboard to control, sync and expand your lighting setup.
