The radiator features a classic rectangular design with a black finish, highlighted by the brand's logo against a cyan background on its edge. This model maintains the dimensions of its predecessor, measuring 403 x 124.5 x 31 mm . Installation is straightforward. zipper fin heat sink

The connection between the radiator and the pump unit is facilitated by two long hoses, each covered with a nylon sheath for durability and aesthetics. This model uses clips for securing the hoses.

The pump unit presents a streamlined design with a gray frame, including a centrally located screen. The pump's screen measures 2.8 inches diagonally with a resolution of 640x480 pixels. Although the screen's brightness is not specified, it supports a 16.7 million color display and includes gyroscopic sensors that adjust the display's orientation based on its position.

Pre-applied thermal paste is included, though users may want to verify its presence and quality during installation. The base surface is notably smooth, free of machining marks. Compatibility of the pump unit extends to Intel platforms including LGA-115x, LGA-1200, and LGA-1700, as well as AMD's AM5 and AM4. It does not support older or high-end desktop (HEDT) platforms from either manufacturer. 

Installation accessories include specific plastic spacers for different socket types, with variations in design to ensure optimal clamping force and alignment based on the socket used. The HYDROSHIFT 360S, 360R, and 360TL water cooling AIOs feature an innovative design that conceals tubing to the side of the radiator for a cleaner aesthetic. Capable of left or right-side routing, the brushed aluminum plate and left/right end covers provide versatility. The HYDROSHIFT is available exclusively as a 360 mm AIO, in both black and white. Similar to the GALAHAD II LCD, the improved 360 mm HYDROSHIFT pump block features a 2.88-inch LCD panel controlled via L-Connect 3 software for complete customizability and introduces a shroud that covers and hides the mounting screws.

Tubing can be routed down either side of the radiator to accommodate standard or unique builds. One of the included L-shaped plastic shrouds fits over the end, transforming the look with either right or left-side mounting. The HYDROSHIFT comes with a full-length brushed aluminum plate, which attaches to the left or right side to accommodate both build orientations. The 360 mm sized HYDROSHIFT 360TL and 360R use a 31 mm radiator height, teaming up with high-performance 28 mm tall fans to deliver robust cooling for your CPU.
