Introduction

A big thank you to ID-Cooling for supplying the review sample.

Since its start in 2013, ID-Cooling has rapidly expanded, consistently building its market presence and brand recognition. The company has refined its products with every release, evolving from a focus on value-driven designs to offering a wider range of choices. ID-Cooling has competently adapted to market demands by introducing both budget-friendly and premium products with enhanced warranties. Despite this growth, the company has retained its innovative spirit, embracing new designs and trends, and has become a major contender in the DIY PC market.


The ID-Cooling FX360 LCD will be taking center stage in today's review. ID-Cooling's latest offering keeps the ARGB lighting while adding a small 1.48 inch 240 x 240 display. It offers pre-set themes including Master Chief from Halo, Ganyu from Genshin Impact, among other options, or you can set up your own custom theme as the software supports various image formats and mp4 video files. While these additions are the central focus for this units appeal, it does have other useful features as well such as the daisy-chainable fans, and simple but solid mounting hardware. Considering the performance and value the previous FX series AIOs have offered, I have high hopes for the FX360 LCD.

Packaging

The packaging follows ID-Cooling's signature black and orange design, with the front showcasing the FX360 LCD in full color. The right side features minimal details, displaying FX360 LCD branding with a faded backdrop showing the display. All the specifications and supported sockets are on the back along with a mechanical drawing detailing the units dimensions.


The other panels are pretty simple, just showing the product name and company logo. All in all, the packaging is pretty standard—nothing too flashy or out of the ordinary.

ID-Cooling has chosen to use foam inside the box to safeguard the cooler and ensure everything stays in place during transit, which gets my approval. While a simple cardboard tray can do the job, foam packaging tends to provide better protection for coolers and components during shipping.


Intel and AMD socket support is solid, covering all the mainstream options. While the AMD and Intel HEDT platforms are not supported, it's not a significant issue at this price range. Everything necessary is included, though there are no additional extras outside the tubing clips.
