Description
The GIGABYTE AORUS WATERFORCE X 360 represents the pinnacle of All-In-One liquid cooling, merging elite thermal engineering with a customizable visual interface. Featuring a redesigned high-performance pump and Graphene Nano Lubricant ARGB fans, this cooler is engineered to efficiently dissipate heat from the most demanding multi-core processors. The standout feature is the 60x60mm circular full-color LCD, which supports video playback and custom text, allowing your PC build to reflect your personal style while providing critical system data at a glance.
This product is for:
- PC Enthusiasts seeking a premium centerpiece for their build with custom video and GIF playback.
- Overclockers requiring stable thermal performance for high-TDP Intel Core i9 or AMD Ryzen 9 processors.
- Content Creators who need a silent cooling solution that maintains performance during intensive rendering tasks.
- Gamers looking for seamless lighting synchronization across their ecosystem via RGB Fusion 2.0.
- System Builders who appreciate the flexibility of a 330-degree rotatable screen for varied mounting orientations.

Setting up the WATERFORCE X is intuitive thanks to the universal mounting bracket and the unique 330-degree rotatable LCD screen, which eliminates the frustration of upside-down logos in vertical or horizontal builds. The Graphene Nano Lubricant fans significantly reduce friction and noise, resulting in a 2.1x longer lifespan and noticeably quieter operation compared to standard sleeve bearings. Users can upload MP4, GIF, or BMP files via a Micro SD card to personalize their rig beyond simple lighting effects, making the internal chassis a dynamic display hub.
Compared to the standard WATERFORCE series, the X-series introduces Micro SD support for expanded video storage and a larger 60mm circular LCD. While many competitors offer fixed-orientation screens, the AORUS 330-degree manual rotation provides superior compatibility with various case layouts and tube routing preferences. Its thermal efficiency rivals top-tier 360mm radiators, specifically optimized for the increased surface area requirements of modern LGA 1700 and AM4/AM5 platforms.
Q&A:
- Does the AORUS WATERFORCE X 360 support Intel LGA 1700? Yes, it includes the necessary mounting hardware for the LGA 1700 socket out of the box.
- How do I upload videos to the LCD screen? You must insert a Micro SD card (up to 32GB, FAT32) and use the RGB Fusion 2.0 software to upload and sync your files.
- Can the screen orientation be adjusted? Yes, the screen can be manually rotated 330 degrees to ensure the display is upright regardless of pump orientation.
- What is the benefit of Graphene Nano Lubricant? It reduces noise levels to as low as 7.9 dBA and extends the fan's lifespan to approximately 73,500 hours.
- Is it compatible with non-AORUS motherboards? Yes, the pump and fan speed control are designed to work with all major motherboard brands via standard headers.
