arctic liquid freezer iii 360 review b

 

    The Liquid Freezer III 420 A-RGB may not had impressed me with its performance, but it performed well enough, especially considering the aggressive pricing policy ARCTIC followed at launch (still do). Unfortunately, the Liquid Freezer III A-RGB didn’t perform nearly as well and that’s not something I was expecting. Yes, an 360mm radiator can’t perform as well as an 420mm AIO but again, 8 degrees Celsius difference is not something I was expecting. That being said the ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III 360 A-RGB is the least noisy AIO in these charts so in a way it does make sense that it didn’t produce the cooling efficiency I was hoping it would (I will reach out to ARCTIC to try and get a 2nd sample to check if there was something with this one, if that happens and something changes, I will update the review). Also worth pointing out is that thanks to the 60mm fan over the coldplate the Liquid Freezer III line does also help with motherboard component temperatures (alas not as much as for example the IceMyst model) unlike most AIO models out there.


    At the time of this review the Liquid Freezer III 360 A-RGB AIO by ARCTIC retails for just USD107.79 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 88.43Euros inside the EU (Arctic.de) so once again no complaints from me here. Overall, the Liquid Freezer III 360 A-RGB may not impress with its cooling efficiency but it looks great, is almost inaudible even at full speed and is priced just right so I do recommend checking it out.
