Both the CAPTAIN 120 and the 360 models performed extremely well back when we reviewed them slightly over a year ago and although since then we've tested several new AIO liquid CPU coolers the CAPTAIN 240 White does not disappoint. Certainly as...
Good performance, Unique design, Price, Improved mounting system, Great Fans
Poor fit and finish, Low quality hardware
It was nice to get a second unit and see some great increases in performance. Unfortunately it also served to punctuate the downsides. We still find that across their AiO range the screws are for the most part still difficult to install. Certainly if ther...
Unique design, Simple installation, Great fans, Nice included fan splitter
Poor performance, Fit and finish is sub par, Price is far too high
Unfortunately it seems that the negative side is going to be a bit stronger in this case. First and foremost the performance was sub par. Not only does it not stack up against other coolers in it's size category, it just barely hangs with much smaller coo...

Innovative styling, Rubberised fan bodies reduce vibration and noise, Mounting kit is well designed, Long life zirconium ceramic pump bearings, LED lighting illuminates the external loop, PWM fan hub is included
No USB connection or control software, Fan speed is set in the BIOS, You cannot see coolant moving through the clear tubing, Two convoluted hoses are small diameter, Price is a touch too high.
Deepcool is trying something different with its range of GamerStorm Captain All in One liquid coolers. The sizes are conventional (120mm, 240mm and 360mm) however the styling is quite distinct from the usual Asetek hardware we see employed by the likes of...

Aesthetically pleasing, Unique pump
Performance is not that great, Price is a bit high for the performance it offers, Tubing and Radiator seem to be out of date
We have thoroughly looked at and tested the Captain 240, but how did it hold up? Well, let's have a recap and see where it stacks up against the competition. The performance of the Captain 240 was not quite what I would have hoped for. While I know the...
Disappointment, this was the result of testing DeepCool Captain 240. Despite all the prettiness that brought engineers in the design of Captain 240. DeepCool can not show good efficacy, while remaining a noisy pump at maximum speed. Of course, reducing th...
