WHO AND WHAT IS CRYORIG?

CRYORIG was officially founded in 2013, but took several years in the making. We began our journey right at the start of the first decade of the 2000's. During what was the most prosperous age of PC DIY and Overclocking. Members of our team have either worked directly or indirectly with brands such as Thermalright, Prolimatech, Phanteks and many more. We ourselves are overclockers and PC modding enthusiasts, with a passion and drive to strive for improvement. With direct knowledge of manufacturing and design as well as holding multiple patents under our collective belt, we decided to make a name for ourselves, and that name is CRYORIG. So what is CRYORIG exactly? CRYORIG is about making the coolest rig possible.

CRYORIG's rapid rise is in part due to a very solid line-up of high performance cooling products. Quickly becoming an enthusiast favorite thanks to the R1 Universal and Ultimate and a wide array of mid-range and entry level offerings, and not content to sit idly by, they have instead been rapidly expanding into various markets. Even the AIO liquid cooler market has not been spared with the A40 Ultimate and A80 we already reviewed performing quite well.

Enter the A40, which I will be reviewing today. Featuring a 27.5 mm thick 240 mm radiator and a pump-mounted fan, this AIO uses the same hybrid design as the A40 Ultimate and A80 offerings. The big difference here is the more affordable nature of the A40. If the others are just a bit out of your price range, the standard A40 might just be the answer. Let's take a closer look without any further delay.
