Final Thoughts
The Nepton 280L is one of the newest product offering that CM has on the market. It is also basically top dog from their product offerings. As such we expect big performance and a well designed product. And truthfully I feel that CM delivers on both of those levels. For performance, the Nepton 280L is the leader in our new style of testing. Additionally I felt that it left room for further performance to be extracted from our CPU. From an ease of use perspective I found this AIO to be second to none. It was very simple getting this installed. Even more so than some of the 120mm AIO’s we’ve tested recently. Overall the construction is great and doesn’t feel cheap and you feeling ripped off.
The one thing that I will say is that being such a thin radiator, the fan noise is necessarily a bit too loud. A quieter set of fans would be on my wish list for this cooler.
The price is neither here nor there, it is exactly where I would expect it to be for a 280mm AIO kit.
Overall ThinkComputers would like to award the Cooler Master Nepton 280L with a 10 out of 10 score!
Pros:
– Great Performance
– Ease of Use
– Quality Materials and Construction
Cons:
– Little Bit Noisy
