ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 - AIO CPU Cooler,3 x 120 mm Water Cooling

I don’t know how to click 4 1/2 stars, so I’ll just say 4 1/2 stars. It is insanely good at what it does, you should check clearances with your case though because it is GINORMOUS. It is easy to hook up the fans, it’s only one cable. It looks very clean. My only complaint is it is quite difficult to install, so I would recommend leaving the bracket a bit loose while you tighten the pump onto the cpu brackets than tightening them fully afterwards. I have no doubt this thing could cool a stovetop to 30 degrees Celsius at max fan speed. Make sure to adjust the fan speed in your bios because for some reason the default is max RPM all the time. Insanely good value too.

I have been using Arctic Cooling AIOs for a few years and they have not disappointed me! I had bought one of the affected Liquid Freezer II 360 units where the rubbery fluid guide inside the AIO block was faulty and they shipped a free kit to fix the issue (I replaced rubbery one with new silicone piece and baseplate, with works as good as ever). I like that they have a thicker radiator (38mm vs 25mm, more fluid to transfer heat to). The fit and finish is good, the VRM fan does work for lower VRM temps meaningfully. My only complaint for the previous model is the mounting system, it can be tricky getting bolts tightened evenly. Many mounting systems us springs which have some give because you tighten the Liquid Freezer II in four places. For the Liquid Freezer III, they fixed that issue and now you tighten in two places and there is a pre-curved, springy plate. The only con with the Liquid Freezer III, and it can be resolved with fan controller customization, is the noise. The Liquid Freezer II was very quiet for its level of performance, the Liquid Freezer III, on the other hand, is a bit noisy. If you have a hot CPU (looking at you Intel), this cooler will do a stellar job of taming it, but the cost is noise. I got a Coolermaster Elite Liquid 240 AIO and it gets so loud at full fan speed, obnoxiously loud, worse than the Arctic Freezer III Pro series coolers! Bottom line, I highly recommend the Arctic Freezer III Pro series coolers, just don’t forget the fan control to fine tune them to cut down on unnecessary noise.

I purchased the ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 in July for under $70 and paired it with an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D on an MSI PRO X870E-P WiFi motherboard. After roughly two months of use, I’ve been very happy with its performance. Installation was straightforward, and everything needed for the AM5 platform was included. The mounting hardware felt secure, and once installed, the cooler has required no adjustments or maintenance. Cooling performance has exceeded my expectations. My Ryzen 7 9800X3D typically idles between 37°C and 46°C, and during sustained 100% CPU stress tests, temperatures remain between 64°C and 70°C. During normal gaming, temperatures stay comfortably below those values, leaving plenty of thermal headroom while maintaining consistent performance. Another thing I appreciate is the overall noise level. The fans and pump remain quiet during everyday use and only become noticeable under heavier workloads, without sounding excessive or distracting. Considering the performance, build quality, and included hardware, it’s difficult to find a better value at this price point. For under $70, this cooler delivers exactly what I was looking for. It keeps my 9800X3D cool under load, runs quietly, and has been completely reliable since installation. I would absolutely purchase it again.

Just installed this on my first and new pc build and haven’t had a whole lot of time really using it. So my 1st impression is mostly positive. Pros- Does a good job at keeping the CPU cool. I’m using the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D and so far keeps it cool. At idle the temperature hovers between 34 and 40C. Great quality for the price. I like the sleek black fans and cleanliness it gives my PC. It feels rugged and well built and looks like it’ll be a very durable addition to my PC. Cons- it’s a bit loud even when at idle so be aware if you need your PC to be quieter. The instructions could have been written a little more strait forward. I had to do some YouTubing to figure out on how to instal it. This was the most frustrating part of my PC build. I had to really finagle to get the radiator and fans mounted to the tower (doubtless check to make sure it fits your setup). Even though the hoses are stiff and seam to be well built, it does make it harder to mount to the cpu. Overall I’m happy at the moment and I plan to make an update once I really start gaming on it.

So for those that do not want to read the review, I'll just say it is an excellent CPU water cooler, and a must if you have a higher end CPU that likes to run hot. Now for those that want to read more, here's my review: Before I start with the details, I definitely need to stress that is imperative that you measure your case before purchasing this CPU cooler, since the manufacturer isn't lying, it requires a lot of space. That being said, if you have a case that can handle it, it works great and keeps the CPU nice and cool. Okay so on to the review. The reason I purchased the Artic Liquid Freezer 3 Pro is after building a new system with an Intel Core I9 processor, I found that the CPU cooler I purchased for it (Cooler Master 120L) wasn't really rated for such a powerful CPU, and under load the CPU temp was hitting 85c. Now 85c isn't a killer if it's just a quick spike, but when doing video encoding it was hitting and staying at that temp, which just isn't good for the CPU. So doing a little more research, I saw that Artic Liquid Freezer 3 Pro got great reviews, and was recommended for high end processors like the I9. Installing the Artic 3 Pro is extremely easy, unfortunately I built the system in a smaller full size tower case, and the new CPU cooler wouldn't fit the chassis. Luckily my secondary machine was in an even bigger chassis, and it turns out it had mounting holes and rubber grommets already there to mount the Artic 3 Pro. So after stripping the 2 systems bare and swapping all of the components, booted up the new system with the Artic 3 Pro and checked the temps, and my basic idle temp is 26-28c, a good 10 degrees lower than the idle with the old water cooler. I haven't had a chance to stress it out with some video encoding yet, but I've already noticed that the heat spikes I was seeing previously seem to be gone. So in summary, I love the new CPU water cooler! I did run across one issue that had me worried when I first booted it up, and that was that there was a constant low humming noise that seemed to be coming from the unit. I'd read a couple of other people comments saying there was a low hum, but I figured it was a one off for them. Of course I like my rigs to be as quiet as possible, and since the PC sits right under my desk I knew this was going to drive me nuts. Luckily I was able to figure out the problem, which was the tubes from the CPU to the radiator are long and stiff enough that they were touching the side panel, and the humming sound was the noise from the liquid moving and being amplified by the metal door. Fixed this issue with a few zip ties to move the tubes slightly inward so they didn't contact the door, and now the system is as quiet as can be. I hope this review has been helpful, cheers.

It has been treating my 9950x3D pretty well highest temps I saw during heavy loads is 76 degrees Celsius. Nice simple design especially if your trying to minimize the amount of RGB you have in your PC. It's performance is pretty solid. Only gripe with it is when you build with it, apparently AM5 gives it a little trouble when trying to clamp down to the standoffs, though I recommend not tighten your standoffs on the board too much and allow it to have a little bit of wiggle room so you could attach the bracket easily, everything else like the fans, radiator, and plugging into your motherboard is easy.

This is without a doubt one of if not the best AIO that you can purchase for less than $100, it is very quiet and does a great job at keeping temperatures cool. For my AMD RYZEN 7 9800X3D on cinebench my temperatures were at 68C Max and on games like Star Citizen, Black ops 7 and Residents Evil Requiem all on max settings never passed 68C in temps. It looks very nice feels very durable but it is very large so make sure your case is large enough because it can easily not fit, and speaking of fitting it was a pain to set it in the CPU but if you unscrew one of the handles just a bit and raise it while you bolt down one side of the cooler you’ll be able to raise the handle just a bit and screw it and you won’t have a problem it took me about 10 minutes to install everything.

If you value function over aesthetics, the price to performance of this cooler can't be beat. Though I find the all black design without RGB lighting has a clean, sleek look, you may think differently. Compatible with most CPUs on the market, this cooler is better suited for AMD AM4/AM5 processors. When installing with Intel CPUs, it requires you to use their contact frame. This is supposed to help flatten the IHS for better contact, but their contact frame isn't that great. You may think you can just get a better contact frame, but that is not possible as the included contact frame has mounting points that no other frame offers. Both AMD and Intel use an offset mount which targets the hot spot of the CPU, helping to cool the processor more effectively. The three included P12 Pro 120mm fans are quite good. They provide ample airflow, have good static pressure and at low RPMs are near silent. Even at 1000-1500 RPMs the noise level is good. The VRM fan on the pump is also pretty quiet at low RPMs, and helps cool nearby components. The pump is near silent even at full speed. The included fan/VRM/pump cables had excellent length to them, making it easy to route and cable manage. The install procedure is where this loses a star. It was incredibly frustrating to mount, I had to take a few minutes to collect myself. There are 2 points you have to screw down, and it took me several tries to successfully install. I would get one screw started a couple turns, and go to get the other and tweak the position until I think I got it started and go back to the other side, only for it to pop out of place. I went through this a handful of times before I was able to finally get it installed. The pump mount definitely needs a rework. Another thing to consider is compatibility with your case and motherboard. The radiator is 38mm thick and with the 25mm thick fans it has a combined thickness of 63mm. This is too thick for many cases, so check your case manual/website before purchasing. Additionally, the pump can only be mounted in 1 orientation, which may conflict with other components in your PC, such as your top m.2 SSD mount. This is an easy "shut up and take my money" recommendation despite the frustrating install experience. The value of this AIO is insane for its performance, and I'm quite happy with it. If you're thinking of pairing this with an Intel CPU, you'll probably be OK; though due to the contact frame, personally, I would consider a different cooler.

This aio is very good. It does a good job cooling my 9800x3d and keeps things cool even with 6 or 7 hour gaming sessions. It was easy to install and the sound of the fans is minimal after some minor tweaking with the fan curve. I really recommend this to anyone looking for a dependable and hard working aio

Se avete seguito l'evoluzione dei dissipatori AIO, sapete che Arctic è una garanzia, ma con questa serie III hanno superato se stessi. L'ho scelto per raffreddare il mio nuovo Intel Core Ultra 7 265K e i risultati sono semplicemente sbalorditivi per questa fascia di prezzo. ​ Una delle novità più interessanti è l'inclusione del contact frame specifico per il socket LGA 1851/1700. Invece del solito sistema a staffe, si sostituisce direttamente il meccanismo di ritenzione della scheda madre. L'installazione richiede un minimo di manualità in più, ma garantisce una pressione perfetta sul processore, eliminando i problemi di curvatura del chip. Sulla mia B860-Plus si monta perfettamente, anche se lo spazio intorno ai VRM è millimetrico. ​ Per quel che riguarda prestazioni termiche e silenziosità l'Arctic brilla. Mantiene l'Ultra 7 a temperature incredibili: in idle siamo sui 30°C e sotto carico pesante in rendering non ho mai visto la CPU superare i 75-78°C. Il radiatore da 360mm ha una massa radiante generosa e la ventolina dedicata sulla pompa non è solo marketing: aiuta davvero a tenere fresche le fasi di alimentazione della scheda madre, cosa fondamentale se non usate una top di gamma. ​ Il design è molto "industriale" e massiccio, deve piacere. Un enorme pro è la gestione dei cavi: le ventole sono già pre-cablate lungo i tubi e arrivano alla pompa, quindi avrete solo uno o due cavi da collegare alla scheda madre. Un paradiso per il cable management. ​ Cosa sapere prima di comprare: ​- Spessore: Il radiatore è più spesso della media (38mm + ventole). Assicuratevi che il vostro case abbia spazio a sufficienza sul top, altrimenti rischiate che tocchi le RAM o i dissipatori della mobo (io ho dovuto tagliare un angolo dell'AIO per questo motivo) ​- Tubi: Sono belli rigidi e di qualità, ma richiedono un po' di spazio per essere piegati correttamente. ​ Difficile trovare di meglio, anche spendendo il doppio. È potente, silenzioso e risolve alla radice i problemi di contatto dei nuovi processori Intel. Se avete spazio nel case, è la scelta definitiva per chi cerca prestazioni da workstation senza il rumore di una turbina.
