Packaging

The packaging with its neon turquoise and gray colors definitely qualifies as attention-grabbing. On the front, the Castle 360EX poses in all its RGB-illuminated glory along with the badges detailing support for various motherboard RGB sync solutions. It also prominently displays the fact that it comes equipped with Deepcool's new Anti-leak technology. The left side has the product name along with a quick mention that this liquid cooler uses +5V ARGB LEDs and comes with a wired controller. When it comes to supported CPU sockets, fan speeds, tubing length, features, and technical drawings and general specification, they can all be found on the back of the box.


The right side showcases a graph detailing the fluctuating pressure inside liquid coolers that lack the Anti-leak technology. Looking at the top, you will find nothing more than the Gamer Storm logo, while the bottom details various features, including, once again, the Anti-leak tech, split chamber design, tri-phase motor, low noise operation, among others.

Opening the box reveals the Castle 360EX packaged in a typical cardboard shell with a piece of foam on top. Otherwise, there is not much to see here that hasn't been seen before, as the packaging is the standard for the majority of all-in-one liquid CPU coolers.


Intel and AMD socket support is quite good with this liquid cooler supporting all mainstream sockets and even TR4. In regards to the RGB LEDs, software control via the motherboard is possible, as well as over an in-line controller for those who don't have a motherboard with RGB support.
