Noctua launches first AIO liquid cooler, the NL-LC1-36

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Noctua has released its first all-in-one (AIO) liquid cooler, the NL-LC1-36, after a long anticipation from consumers. While the cooler boasts exceptional silence and top-tier thermal performance, it is noted to be an expensive option. A key detail is that the cooler is based on an Asetek platform, with Noctua adding its own design touches, such as a pump noise absorber and specialized fans, to enhance its quiet operation and aesthetics.
