ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 A-RGB (White) - AIO CPU Cooler, 3 x 120 mm Water Cooling, 38 mm Radiator, PWM Pump, VRM Fan, AMD AM5/AM4, Intel LGA1851/1700 Contact Frame - White

The ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 A-RGB (White) is an outstanding cooler and a perfect match for my Ryzen 9 9950X3D and ASUS Crosshair X870E Hero setup. It keeps thermals in check even under full load, with whisper-quiet operation thanks to the optimized pump and semi-passive ARCTIC P12 fans. My CPU remains cool and stable during 4K gaming, VR sessions with the HIVE Index, and sustained multitasking.The integrated VRM fan is a great touch, offering additional stability during heavy overclocking. Aesthetically, it looks sleek in my Corsair 7000D Airflow case, and the ARGB lighting is vibrant but tastefully done — especially when synced via my ITleads SC790 hub.Installation was straightforward with clear instructions and excellent build quality throughout. I originally tried to fit this cooler in a Fractal Design Torrent, but clearance issues with my GPU led me to switch to the 7000D — a move that gave the Liquid Freezer III Pro the space it deserves.Overall, this cooler delivers top-tier thermal performance with low noise and clean cable routing. A fantastic choice for any high-performance AMD system.

Update: I swapped my CPU for 9950x and still doing well (needed more cores). With PBO on, it would hit 95C, but without it would hit 80 on stress tests. It's normal for this chip to squeeze out more performance until 95C, so it really isn't the fault of the cooler. I did use a negative optimizer curve with PBO and now it stays in the 80s when fully utilized. Still a great cooler and would recommend.Original review: This thing has amazing performance. My 9800X3D CPU was originally cooled by a 240mm AIO (NZXT z53) and during Cinebench runs or any stress tests, it would hit 95C - verified install, repasted, etc. but had the same results. I installed this and it would go 82C max during my tests. Huge difference and now I can rest easy knowing my CPU won't be hitting 90s. Idle still sits around 40C but that's with a general fan/pump curve and not aggressive. Gaming will hit around 60-65C. This is for the 9800X3D chip, so it will vary if you have a different one.Install was OK compared to most, but it doesn't seem as stable when you mount it, as you have two screws to mount it into place compared to corners like some others. But it's not bad, especially if you have built PC's before. The instructions are online and very easy to follow. Just know that the radiator is much thicker than "regular" 360 AIOs, so make sure you have room in the case before purchasing.The RGB is ok, nothing fancy. Not amazing for 2025, but the price also reflects that. The fans have a slight gap at the top so the LEDs do shine through, seems nice, like an aesthetic thing. Performance is obviously not an issue as stated above.This cooler is definitely the best bang for your buck for 360mm AIOs. I got this on sale for $99, so it was well worth the price.I'll update this review if this has any issues down the road

What can I say, thi AIO is a beast, cools my OCd 9800x3d so well even when my room temp is in the 30s due to where I live.i thought it wouldn't fit due to the thickness of it but it fit perfectly in my case, the color is also great.really this is the best AIO in the market currently at a very affordable price.my only small gripe is the cpu screws mounting which was a bit annoying to screw in the first time but apart from that 10/10.

When I first installed this for some reason it wasn't working. It came with zero directions and I had to find a youtube video on how to put it together since I could not figure out what was going wrong. So I check to see if anything is obstructing the pump nothing was. So I redo the whole assembly and add new thermal paste and that seems to have solved most of the issues I had with it.Then I had to figure out where to put it in my pc case because I had massive issues putting it where I wanted to put it. I relocated some of my rgb fans and that seems to be working okay for now where I put it. I laid it vertically alongside my pc case and it seems to have plenty of room.When I first powered it on I could not figure out how to get the rgb to work. I figured it out by finding the circuit board inside the pc for controlling the fans. Apparently I was not supposed to plug it into the motherboard with this pc case. There is a button on top of my pc case for changing the color. Works great!It looks fine with the color changing leds. Just don't recommend leaving it on for long periods at night since if you leave this in your bed room like I do the lights will keep you up at night.This water cooler has twice the noise as my older cooler. It is so loud my discord mic picks up the fans. Not super impressed with the noise level even though it could be a lot worse. It is not the pump that is loud I want to clarify its the actual fans themselves on the radiator. They are very loud fans for some reason but they must be blowing a lot of air I guess.Overall this is a good product and a darn cheap water cooling kit. Reduced it to 4 stars because of the amount of noise it makes. Thanks!
