360 mm liquid cooler for mainstream sockets
The COUGAR Poseidon Elite ARGB 360 is a closed-loop liquid cooler built around a 360 mm aluminum radiator and three 120 mm PWM fans. Its copper cold plate supports AMD sockets AM2, AM3, AM4, AM5, FM1 and FM2 as well as Intel LGA 1150, 1151, 1155, 1156, 1200, 1366 and 1700. Addressable RGB lighting runs on a 5 V three-pin header. The unit ships new with 400 mm tubing.
Thermals noise and power draw at typical speeds
Three 120 x 120 x 25 mm fans spin between 500 and 2200 RPM ±10 % and deliver 62.53 CFM each at a static pressure of 2.4 mmH2O. At normal operating points the fans produce 33.5 dB(A) and draw power through a 2510 four-pin PWM connector. The pump measures 82.9 x 73.3 x 50.7 mm and sits directly on the copper block.
Behaviour under sustained load rather than burst
Under continuous load the fans can ramp toward the upper end of the 500 to 2200 RPM range to maintain airflow across the 360 mm radiator. The aluminum fins and copper base dissipate heat steadily while the 400 mm tubes allow flexible routing in most chassis. Builders who need a smaller radiator or a different socket layout will not be served by this model.

Questions about this item
How do I mount the 360 mm radiator with the 400 mm tubes and connect the 5V 3-pin ARGB header?
Install the three 120 mm fans onto the 360 mm aluminium radiator, secure it to a compatible case location, attach the copper cold-plate using the supplied brackets for AM2 AM3 AM4 AM5 FM1 FM2 or LGA 1150 1151 1155 1156 1200 1366 1700, then plug the pump and fan 4-pin PWM connectors plus the 5V 3-pin ARGB lead into the motherboard.
What part of the COUGAR Poseidon Elite ARGB 360 will need replacement first?
The three 120 mm PWM fans rated at 500 to 2200 RPM with 62.53 CFM airflow and 33.5 dB(A) noise are the only moving wear items; the sealed loop uses 400 mm tubes and a copper block with no user-serviceable fluid.
At what point does the 2.4 mmH2O static pressure limit cooling under sustained load?
The fans deliver 2.4 mmH2O at 2200 RPM; if coolant temperature keeps rising past that curve the radiator cannot reject heat fast enough and CPU temperatures will climb despite maximum fan speed.
