Performance

All-in-one liquid coolers rely heavily on radiator size and fan airflow to help dissipate heat, so it's no surprise to find the thin TD02-Slim struggling to compete with full-sized alternatives. Nevertheless, performance when cooling an overclocked CPU is very decent and significantly better than an Intel reference cooler or a low-profile air cooler.

Noise, however, can be an issue. The TD02-Slim pump isn't as quiet as we'd have liked - resulting in higher than anticipated idle noise - and when the going gets tough, SilverStone's thin fans do get quite loud.
