In this article we will look upon another liquid cooling system which does fit the AM4 platform, and to be more exact the MasterLiquid Pro 280 by Cooler Master. This model does feature FlowOp technology (liquid flow optimization) which is composed of a square fin design radiator, a precision water block with 657% more surface area for heat dissipation, fan blade design inspired by the helicopters, FEB tubing, but also a custom pump. The product is shipped inside a black cardboard enclosure, fully sealed on the outside with a transparent plastic layer:
