Description
Thermaltake Pacific CLD 360 Radiator - 1 Pack
The Thermaltake Pacific CLD 360 Radiator is a premium copper radiator designed for serious builders who demand peak cooling performance and lasting durability. Built with a highly efficient double-fin core and brass end tanks, this radiator delivers exceptional thermal transfer to keep CPUs, GPUs, and multi-component loops operating at optimal temperatures even under heavy workloads. The CLD series is engineered to maximize heat dissipation while preserving reliability, making it a trusted choice for enthusiasts, overclockers, and professional PC builders alike.
At the heart of the Pacific CLD 360 is a copper core that offers superior thermal conductivity compared to many aluminum radiators. The copper core is paired with rugged brass tanks, delivering excellent resistance to corrosion and long-term stability in demanding cooling environments. This construction is particularly advantageous for custom water-cooling loops where sustained performance over thousands of hours of operation matters. The result is cooler temperatures, quieter operation, and headroom for higher performance CPU and GPU configurations.
Designed for compatibility with 120mm high-static-pressure fans, the CLD 360 is optimized for dense fin arrays that extract heat from the coolant efficiently. The radiator’s design takes advantage of a 40mm thickness, a dimension that strikes a balance between maximum heat rejection and compatibility with a broad range of PC cases. Whether you’re building a compact high-performance rig or a spacious enthusiast system, this radiator offers the cooling capacity you need while fitting into standard 360mm mounting spaces without compromising aesthetics or airflow.
One of the standout features of the CLD 360 is its emphasis on reliability and ease of integration. The brass end tanks contribute to structural integrity and durability, while the copper core delivers rapid heat transfer to the coolant. This combination is particularly effective in multi-loop setups or configurations with tight tolerances, where consistent performance across all channels is essential. For builders who want to push components to their limits, the Pacific CLD 360 provides a solid foundation for stable, long-term cooling that helps maintain peak clock speeds and competitive benchmarks.

How to Install Thermaltake Pacific CLD 360 Radiator
- Prepare your build: Ensure your case supports a 360mm radiator with adequate mounting points and clearance for fans and tubing. Confirm your pump and reservoir configuration can accommodate the CLD 360 and provide sufficient coolant flow.
- Mount the radiator: Secure the 360mm radiator into the designated mounting location in your case. Align the fins for optimal airflow direction, typically matching front-to-back or top-to-front airflow depending on your chassis design.
- Attach fans: Install 120mm high-static-pressure fans onto the radiator. Ensure the fan orientation directs airflow through the radiator fin stack for maximum heat rejection. Use appropriate screws and spacer hardware if required by your case or fans.
- Connect the loop: Run tubes from your CPU/GPU blocks to the radiator’s inlet and outlet ports. Use clean, correct routing to avoid kinks and ensure smooth coolant flow. Secure connections with compression fittings or barbs as appropriate for your system.
- Fill and test: Fill the loop with your chosen coolant and perform a leak test according to your system’s procedure. Check for leaks at all fittings and ensure the pump maintains steady flow, then allow the coolant to reach operating temperature before benchmarking or gaming sessions.
- Finalize the setup: Route cables neatly, verify airflow paths, and confirm that coolant temperatures remain within target ranges during typical workloads. Re-check fittings after the first operating period to ensure nothing has loosened during heat cycling.
