A few years back if one were to ask who Raijintek was, not many would be able to provide an accurate answer. However over the years since their incorportation in 2013, Raijintek have created a decent name for themselves in the CPU cooler industry and today are certainly a force to recon with. Today we look at one of their All In One (AIO) liquid CPU coolers called the Orcus 280 RBW.
AIO closed loop liquid coolers aren’t something new to the market. You’ll find quite an extensive range on offer by multiple vendors if you were looking to purchase one. The Orcus 280 RBW features some slight variations to the general norm you’d find in the market, so lets go through these in detail in the next section. But first below are the specifications for this cooler.
