Cooler Master’s MasterLiquid Pro Coolers

Cooler Master‘s next generation of all-in-one liquid CPU coolers is here. The company’s MasterLiquid Pro 120 and MasterLiquid Pro 240 coolers incorporate a number of design changes over the Nepton 120XL and Nepton 240M that could potentially improve their performance and durability. Over at Tom’s Hardware they have taken the time to have a quick look at these Cooler Master MasterLiquid Pro Coolers. Its is an all-in-one water cooler, but how does this one differ to others on the market?

It is difficult for manufacturers to innovate in the world of all-in-one water coolers, but that hasn’t stopped Cooler Master from making an attempt. Its new units, the MasterLiquid Pro 120XL and MasterLiquid Pro 240, have redesigned radiators and pump assemblies.

The radiators have a square fin design, which means that the aluminum fins are neatly folded with 90-degree angles for maximum surface area and therefore higher heat dissipation.

The real highlight of the MasterLiquid Pro liquid coolers is the pump assembly. Rather than enclosing the pump and cooling fins in a single chamber, the cold plate has its own chamber, with the pump enclosed in another right above it. The coolant flows through the radiator, into the pump, and then through the cold plate and back to the radiator.
