Introduction

A big thank you to TEAMGROUP for supplying the review sample.

TEAMGROUP, founded in 1997 is no newcomer in the DIY PC space. However, in the last decade or so they have expanded and grown by an impressive amount. From their more humble origins in memory and flash products, they have increased their portfolio to include not just high-performance memory and SSDs, but also cases, all-in-one liquid coolers, mouse pads, ARGB control hubs, and more, along with a solid core of industrial focused DRAM and SSD products as well.


Today's review will look at the T-Force SIREN DUO360 AIO, a recent release from TEAMGROUP. While on the surface it appears to be a standard 360 mm all-in-one liquid cooler, it does have a few interesting features. First, it offers a liquid-cooled block for your high-performance NVMe SSD which is quite innovative on its own. But it also moves away from the CPU coldplate and pump combo in favor of a radiator mounted pump. While that isn't unheard of, it will be interesting to see how the pump location changes the typical noise characteristics during testing. So without any further delay, let's look at what the SIREN DUO360 can do!

Packaging

TEAMGROUP's packaging for the T-Force SIREN DUO360 is clean and visible. On the front, the all-white liquid cooler pops on the black background while important information, such as full support for AM5 and LGA1700, is displayed on the bottom left, along with the various motherboard ARGB software that the cooler will work with. I am also thankful to see they placed the warranty on the upper right, which is a nice touch. While many brands bury their warranty lengths, seeing it prominently displayed without digging through the company's website is nice. Moving to the left side, you will find the specifications of the cooler, with all the information detailed on the first page displayed in an easy-to-read table. The back details all the cooler's features with some nice graphics.


On the right side, you will find mechanical drawings detailing the various dimensions of the CPU block, SSD block, radiator, and fans. Meanwhile, the top and the bottom are the same with TEAMGROUP's T-Force branding being the only noteworthy point of interest.

Inside the box, you will find the T-Force SIREN DUO360 safely encased in foam. All the individual blocks, fans, and components are tucked away in separate compartments with a foam sheet on top for good measure. Overall the packaging has a premium feel, which I appreciate.


Intel and AMD socket support are robust enough that anyone on a typical mainstream system should be just fine. The only sockets not supported would be Intel's LGA775 and AMD's sTR4 and sTRX4. Other than that, TEAMGROUP includes everything needed, including a small screwdriver to make the M.2 block easier to install. Overall there is a lot of hardware included, and while that may be concerning to some in regard to difficulty, there is nothing to worry about.
