Valkyrie V360 Lite AIO CPU Cooler Review

The last time we featured a Valkyrie AIO was in our 8-way AIO showdown round-up review back in 2023. Since then, the company has been a little quiet, however they are back with some new coolers including the SURGE 125 200W air cooler. In this review, though, we are taking a closer look at the V360 Lite AIO from Valkyrie with its ‘Mecha Aesthetic’ top cover and what the company says is a high-speed pump previously reserved for its top-tier offerings. Let’s see how this £110 AIO stacks up against the competition.
