Larkooler KU3-241 WaterCooling Kit

Conclusion

Prior to this review, I had never heard of Larkooler. However, having now used and reviewed one of their watercooling systems, I can see that they should probably become popular soon enough. Overall, Larkooler still have a few steps to go before they can take over the market, but they are definitely heading in the right direction.

The watercooling kit I reviewed today (KU3-241) can be bought for less than £200 if you shop around online, and at this price, it is quite an attractive entry into the watercooling world. It performs well at this price, given that it is a “DIY” kit, and comes complete with everything you need, and despite it only beating the Noctua under load by a few degrees it is certainly a good entry into the market and if this kit is anything to go by, we will be seeing a lot more of Larkooler in the future!


Pros

  • Affordable entry into the water-cooled world
  • High build quality
  • Easy to follow instructions
  • Good performance
  • Reasonably quiet

Cons

  • Pump could be more powerful
  • Waterblock does not (at time of reviewing) support newer 1155 chipset

Reality Check: Whilst this kits performance won’t blow you away, it is definitely a great and affordable way to get into the world of watercooling.
