Description
The Bitspower Leviathan II 360 Radiator stands as a critical component for enthusiasts looking to build a robust and efficient custom water cooling system. Engineered with high-conductivity copper, this radiator facilitates rapid heat transfer from the coolant to the atmosphere. Its refined single wave fin architecture is specifically designed to optimize airflow and increase the total surface area available for cooling, providing a significant thermal advantage when paired with high-static pressure fans.
This product is for:
- Custom loop PC builders requiring a high-performance 360mm heat exchanger.
- Overclockers looking for copper-based thermal components to manage high TDP loads.
- Silent PC enthusiasts who need optimized fin density for efficient cooling at low fan speeds.
- Professional workstation users seeking reliable hardware to prevent thermal throttling during long rendering tasks.
- System integrators who require flexible thickness options (27mm or 40mm) to fit various chassis constraints.

In practice, the Leviathan II 360 offers a seamless installation experience with standard G1/4" threading that ensures compatibility with a wide range of fittings. The choice between the 27mm slim profile and the 40mm thick version allows for precise system tuning; the slim version excels in compact cases where clearance is limited, while the thick version provides the extra thermal mass needed for extreme cooling demands. The copper construction not only improves heat dissipation compared to aluminum alternatives but also ensures long-term reliability within the loop.
When compared to standard 360mm radiators, the Leviathan II distinguishes itself through its material purity and fin geometry. Unlike budget aluminum radiators that are prone to galvanic corrosion when mixed with copper blocks, the Leviathan II is built for longevity and material compatibility. While the slim 27mm variant offers similar dimensions to many All-In-One (AIO) units, its superior copper fins provide better thermal overhead, and the 40mm thick variant significantly outperforms standard slim radiators in high-heat scenarios involving multi-GPU setups.
Q&A:
- Does the Bitspower Leviathan II 360 include fans? No, fans are sold separately so users can select the specific static pressure or noise profile that fits their build.
- What is the benefit of the single wave fin design? The single wave fin increases the surface area for heat dissipation while maintaining an airflow path that reduces resistance, allowing for efficient cooling even at lower RPMs.
- Can I use this radiator with aluminum water blocks? It is highly recommended to avoid mixing copper radiators with aluminum components to prevent galvanic corrosion; stick to copper, brass, or nickel-plated parts.
- Which version should I choose, the 27mm or 40mm? Choose the 27mm slim version for maximum case compatibility and the 40mm thick version if your case has the space and you require higher cooling capacity.
- What fittings are compatible with this radiator? The radiator uses standard G1/4" threads, making it compatible with almost all modern liquid cooling fittings and tubing sizes.
