The ROG actually performs very well, toss-up as to who is actually better as the Arctic is basically custom designed around rad/fans and pump, so there's no real noticeable difference there, both are class leading performers, but you'll pay a lot more for the ROG name, Noctua fan inclusion, OLED screen etc. ![]() The Arctic is plain-Jane, no nonsense performance. There's a lot of gimmick involved that some prefer, might want or can customize to their wants or needs. The ROG also has a seriously complex pump head OLED screen that can be used for all sorts of pov info, from coolant temps to cpu stats etc. From the get-go that's a bonus to many who'd just pull off the stock fans and replace them with the Noctua fans anyway. To expand, the Asus ROG uses Noctua fans. For the M22, Asetek did not have a viable pump solution, and would have been far too expensive to retool to fit the 120mm rad and pump design, that's why NZXT went with Apeltek instead who has mini-pump designs.Īsetek builds the whole thing, not just the pump mechanism itself, but it's cheaper to outsource the rads because of tooling and casting requirements with the aluminium. The pump and all the plastic and leds etc are all Asetek, designed with input and cooperation between Asetek and NZXT engineers. Nzxt uses primarily Asetek because they are in the same building, literally walk next door. Swiftech is a well known water-cooling parts manufacturer that branched into the aio market a little, so uses a rad mounted pump, and a cpu block instead of a cpu mounted pump. Doesn't apply to EU or Asia markets though. You won't find the Kelvin in the US because Asetek sued AlphaCool over Patent Infringement in the US Courts, and won. The Fractal Design Celcius uses Asetek pumps, but the Fractal Design Kelvin uses AlphaCool pumps and rads. The H100i, H60i, etc have a square pump that uses a pump mounted bracket held down by springs, made by Cool It. Asetek makes the round hockey pucks that get twisted into the mount, used by Corsair on the H45, H50, H55, old H60, H105.
