CONCLUSION

   The Liquid Freezer II 240 A-RGB is a step down compared to the 420 non-ARGB model that I reviewed a while back (review here) in terms of cooling efficiency but it’s far more compatible with PC cases/towers, looks a lot better thank to its 2 ARGB fans with their 24 ARGB LEDs and produces slightly less noise at the same time. The small fan on top of the pump/block is also a nice addition, yes it may not work miracles but VRM temperatures drop quite a bit and that could even help with system stability. Also, ARCTIC has reduced overall costs (which translates to less retail price) by not including a user manual and/or a warranty information paper so I expect that to matter as well for many potential customers.

   With a price tag set at USD105.67 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and at just 91.74Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de) the Liquid Freezer II 240 A-RGB by ARCTIC certainly retails as I had hoped. Granted it may not be the best 240mm dual-fan model in the market but it does combine very good cooling efficiency and looks and is covered by a 6-year limited warranty which is why it gets the Golden Award.
