TEAMGROUP SIREN DUO360 AIO

[crazyeyesreaper]

TEAMGROUP merges solid performance with innovative features in the Siren DUO360. This 360 mm prefilled AIO not only cools your CPU, it also includes a block for an M.2 NVMe SSD. Cooling performance is good, and the all-white design will certainly catch some attention.

Seems like MSI or Antec are sharing the same OEM with Teamgroup for AIO.

y/A/w/n...

Yet ANUTHA piece of hardware that the mfgr claims to be all "WHITE" when in fact it is N>O>T>.....

But OTOH, the fact that it includes an m.2 block seems to be a general acknowledgement that gen 5 devices are (currently anyways) running a lot hotter than previous gens

But $400.... really ??

Fractal is too, and let me say, these pumps fail very fast. Seen lots of reports about these specific in-radiator pumps getitng all gunky and all after just a few months at worst. I hope they fixed it for this model, but I'm not going to touch any of these AIOs for sure.

Would've been nice to see some performance testing on the SSD, but thanks for the review

$399.99
For 360 AIO with this price they deserve the innovation of "Not Recommended" Award in TPU.

I agree but if you have noticed the trends of EVER EXPENSIVE COMPONENTS of late?
Because of Ngreedia and the greed of all of the major companies involved since January 1 2020, we have been seeing higher and higher costs in desktop PC.

This becomes a self fulling prophesy on the decline of Units sold of Desktops for the past several years. And what pisses me off to no end is this short term mindset of grabbing as much money as they can to the point of destroying their economic base. They got damned greedy with their mining schemes and now that is gone they still think they can just raise the prices to stupid levels.

There is a 30% premium on all current video cards, as just one example. You got the AMD tax on motherboards. DOUBLE THE COST OVER LAST LAST GENERATION WITH NOT MUCH PERFORMANCE AT ALL.

What they have done is made the PC a LUXURY item for REEEEEE gerbils to pretend they be important.

And they will buy it.

Mentioned it in the review's conclusion, I saw a 15C drop in temperatures compared to the built in motherboard's M.2 heatsink. That temp difference is essentially meaningless though since SSDs will vary same with motherboard heatsinks or other solutions. But a 15C drop is still a noticeable improvement.

Oh thank you, I saw that. I meant r/w performance to test for any problems that might come from cooling the nand too much. Probably ocd on my part but just curious.

no issues on read or write but the test systems SSD is not a high performance option. This cooling solution only really makes sense for Gen 5 NVMe SSDs.

This is horseshit. PC stuff is cheaper than ever unless you want the best of the best PC master race in which case yes, it costs more. But companies didn't do this. Gamers did.

PC gaming is going to the cloud for all but the top 1% get over it. PC gaming will be the first to the cloud as well. Consoles will follow. But PC will lead the way. You will lease a PC based on the details, games, resolution, and frame rate you want. It will cost more if you want more. And PC will lead the way. That's PC gaming. Don't want to lease, get on a a console.

What are you smoking ? I want some ...
It look like you are new and born during covid that's why you think its cheaper than ever
That's the first time of my life I keep a GPU for more than 5 years because price are still stupid

 

[Assimilator]

Overpriced tat.

Overpriced tat.

for sure, nifty and innovative but the price absolutely sinks it.
