Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML240L V2 RGB Liquid CPU Cooler

According to the Cooler Master website, this model is now packaged with the necessary hardware for the new LGA 1700; however, the unit I received was apparently an old model B&H had laying around because the required back plate was not included in the box. Cooler Master does offer an adapter kit (item # 603005870-GP) but judging by the numerous Reddit posts of people looking for them they have been backordered from the company for months and out of stock everywhere else I checked. I would return it, but I'd have to pay the cost of shipping which makes it not worth the effort. I think I can still use the included fans (which sell for around $20 each) as additional case fans, but otherwise all I can do is chalk this up to a $65 learning experience that when buying ... MoreAccording to the Cooler Master website, this model is now packaged with the necessary hardware for the new LGA 1700; however, the unit I received was apparently an old model B&H had laying around because the required back plate was not included in the box.

I purchased this cooler knowing that it does not include the lga1700 mounting bracket. I contacted sales at coolermaster and was told after I purchase the unit to create a service ticket and they will send the mounting bracket for free, which is apparently what they've been doing for all their customers. After I got the cooler, I created the ticket, and waited... and waited.. and I am still waiting now for over a week since the last time I heard anything from Coolermaster. Unfortunately I wasted time and money on this. I ended up buying another product that included the mounting bracket. Lessons learned: Do not trust coolermaster staff because they do not know what they are talking about, and do not rely on their customer service. Buyer beware, its a untrustworthy ... MoreI purchased this cooler knowing that it does not include the lga1700 mounting bracket.

Let me start with the good. The cooling mechanism works. That’s about it.The bad. The RGB came broken out of the box.I had mine connected via the RGB controller which gets its power directly from the power supply.Certain colors did not work. Also with flickering issues.Of course to trouble shoot I checked everything on my end rigorously and made sure I had everything connected the proper way. Reseated connectors but nothing fixed the issue.A bit disappointed because this is the first time coming across a bad product from Cooler Master. Not going to lie compared to other AIO’s in the same price range the pump feels like it was built with cheap material.If you are looking for a 240 AIO in the 100 dollar price range I would avoid this one.
