Lian Li Galahad II LCD 280mm AIO Asetek 8th Gen Liquid Cooler - 2 X 140mm RGB Fans - 2.4 GHz Wireless Control - 2.88” IPS LCD...

So far so good, Temps: Keeping my i9 14900KF at decent temps. Did not benchmark it but on gaming load and when going CFD projects the CPU didn’t go past 80c. The CPU I have is pretty fast so full load times were not observed in long periods but so far on idle it’s not bad averaging at 38c. Aesthetics: Lian Li is known for their aesthetics and this AIO is one of the nicest ones I’ve used. I like the LCD screen. It’s nice but I wish it was better. I primarily use a monitor that’s 240hz and the difference really bugs me. Also the resolution is pretty low which I wish was better because I don’t like the newer curved AIO screens and prefer the simple ones. I was able to test an NZXT AIO and their screens were at a better resolution. Likely because the pixel density was better. I do wish the software was better, I’d like to be able to customize my AIO screen more and I like Thermalrights customizable software vice this Lian Li software. The fans and RGB lights are good, not too obnoxiously bright. Value: You get what you pay for and this is more of a premium AIO and it functions well for temps but the screen is a bit lackluster in clarity. Everything else performs as advertised. Like the cooling function works better than I thought it would on an Intel i9 14900KF. INSTALLATION: Easy. Follow the instructions and it’s just like all the other AIOs. Though it’s a dense and big AIO so make sure you look at the clearance before you buy it. I tried using it in three cases and the only case it fit in were the ones where 360 AIOs fit. Though I do have to blame this on the ROG motherboard because the VRM heatsink and ROG logo is thick. That was the main reason it didn’t fit and if you have, let’s say, a tomahawk or a more budget motherboard then you should be able to fit it in most 280 compatible cases. It’s just super thick (fans and tubing) so some cases where the PSU is front mounted it won’t fit. The tubes or fans will get in the way. Overall satisfied with the purchase and let’s see how long it lasts.

I had watched a VDO on Youtube where a man calmly said he would never but a Lian Li product again. I should have taken his advice. I bought this pump / display and it proved everything he said about the nightmare that this company is. First re this product. The pump runs ok. No concerns. the display is another matter. After trying every conceivable fix to get it to reliably display the features they have with their Connect software I am giving up. Countless emails and to no avail. Avoid this product and the company unless you enjoy frustration and futility.

Absolutely awesome unit for the price, out performs the 360 asus tuf aio that i was using, mounted vertical on the side interior of my hyte y60 case with fans in push pull, very quiet unit with a vivid little fully customizable screen on the pump. My only negative is the "wireless" crap its not wireless.. there should be no need for a 2.4ghz transponder it complicates things that dont matter.
