Cryorig A80 280mm Hybrid Air and AIO CPU Cooler Review

A Closer Look
Being an AIO unit, the radiator, tubing and pump all come pre-assembled and filled, meaning you can just plug it into your system and use it within a few minutes. There is a built-in fan control system on the pump too, so you’ll only need to connect a single PWM header to your motherboard and a SATA cable to power everything.
The aluminium radiator is very nicely finished with a soft matte black paint job. It is packed tight with fins too, giving the already sizeable 280mm radiator a lot of extra surface area to shift heat from your system, and it’ll support up to four 140mm fans.
The pump has a really nice design to it, and while it looks quite large, it’s not going to be overbearing on your motherboard hardware. There’s a fan connector on the top as well as a mount for that funky little 70mm fan too.
There’s a huge copper contact plate on the base of the pump which will provide your CPU with excellent coverage, and it comes with thermal paste pre-applied for a quick and easy installation.
