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

Lives up to the hype, and I'm glad I got the updated version. Wasn't even aware this dropped until I went hunting the previous LF3. Installation wasn't difficult. Tubing is a tad long, but that's just due to my case having the mobo mounted a little higher. It fits fine and after a little adjusting there's plenty of room.Be warned: if you use the all-in-one cable you will not be able to monitor the pump or vrm speed.. that's normal. The pump will just run at the same % as the fans, so after some curve adjustments it's nice and quiet (and cool).Being it's got updated fans, and other small improvements over the previous LF3 I'd say it's a great value. If you get the black version then even better (at the time of this review the blk version is $88..).My case is a Lian Li 507, so it's a rather compact mid-sized case, and (while snug) it fits fine. Like a glove, even. A little over a cm clearance on the front and back, but oh so clean.After getting my fan curves dialed in properly (coming from a Peerless Assassin, which is still great) it runs cool and quiet-ish, as I stated above. This will have more to do with your case and other factors. I'm sure it's louder than other AIO, but I'm happy with it.Performance is solid. Installation was easy and rather fast. The online guide is great and interactive, depending on your chosen mounting method. And aesthetically it looks great.I do love that the face plate is removable, while the magnets are strong. Not sure why the "blades" you see are static (it's more of a grille), but the VRM fan appears to be substantial and u can feel a good bit of pressure coming from it...so that seems to be very functional. I hope they release a screen that's is compatible with this at some point.Edit: swapped to the split cable and adjusted my fan settings. WAY more consistent temps now. I had an issue with spikes where it would ramp up then settle once it was cool then ramp up. I'm sure this was more to do with my curve settings, but since I did this and set the VRM and pump speeds to a static 60% it's quiet and more cool than before. I also undervolted my CPU and I cruise at a solid 41C under load.

Its a good aio keeping my 9900x3d nice and cool below 50c (my room is hot) while noise levels stay low when temps go up. The installation is easy for am5 sockets and its really good value at 100 dollars cant go wrong with it. Build quality is good keeping the wiring simple and fits in the Montech XR.

Great looking 360mm AIO, easy to install on AM5 CPU and wired well. Very affordable option at $100

Great AIO with a thick radiator. Only issue would be the loudness of the fans which you can adjust the fan curve for. It still seems like a downgrade from the previous fans but with a simple curve or mounting it on the side, barely audible. Keeps my 9800X3D 10-11C cooler than my previous six heat pipe air cooler. VRM fan is a nice touch, just wish the CPU bracket was gray or white instead of black.

Nicely made cooler,instructions are good , gave it 4 stars because the hoses are kinda stiff and a bit hard to move. It keeps my am5 7600x cool . It responds fast to temp changes and has insane airflow at max . Negative is this thing is huge, the radiator is twice as thick as my coolermaster and corsair 240mm ones and the dimensions may not fit in all 360mm cooler slots . I had to make modifications and externally mount it. I have an antec midtower and it would not fit without hitting the mobo or gpu had I went front mount . Make sure to take measurements before considering.

I would not recommend this product to anyone with an intel CPU.Mounting it to the motherboard was an absolute nightmare. It requires you to take off the default mobo CPU-holder/contact frame instead of using brackets that fit around the contact frame like every other CPU cooler I've ever used. It recommends you use painters tape to secure the back-plate onto the motherboard so you can screw in the mounting bracket for the cooler which also secures the CPU. The default CPU contact frame is super easy to use and ensures that you don't damage the CPU. Using painters tape to secure something that needs to be stay aligned for 4 screws is a ridiculous, and if your CPU is not properly aligned when you screw it in, you risk damaging the CPU pins on the motherboard. The fans are also not quite.Pros: cheaper, and the fans and water cooling don't require more than 1 fan header and argb header. Corsair's solution required using an entire extra hub which makes wire management a huge hassle.

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 sldoes t seem as stable as you have two screws to mount it into place compared to corners like some others. But it's not too 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
