Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 CPU Liquid Cooler

The ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 (SKU: ACFRE00180A) is a 360mm all-in-one CPU liquid cooler designed for demanding desktop systems, supporting Intel sockets LGA1700 and LGA1851 as well as AMD AM4 and AM5. At the heart of this cooler is a premium 38mm thick radiator — thicker than the conventional 27mm units found on many competing AIOs — which increases liquid volume and improves the system’s ability to absorb and dissipate heat spikes more steadily. Three 120mm P12 Pro PWM fans are pre-installed on the radiator and arrive fully pre-wired, making installation straightforward out of the box. ARCTIC’s offset cold-plate mounting shifts contact to the CPU’s primary heat source rather than the geometric centre of the IHS, which is particularly relevant for Intel processors with off-centre die layouts. Paired with the included Intel Contact Frame, this arrangement helps optimise contact pressure distribution across the CPU lid. A dedicated integrated VRM fan operates via PWM control to help lower voltage-regulator temperatures during heavy workloads, contributing to stable sustained performance. Two control options are available: a splitter cable allows the pump, VRM fan, and radiator fans to run under separate PWM signals, while an all-in-one cable allows them to be synchronised through a single header. The tubing uses reinforced EPDM with a braided sheath for improved durability and kink resistance. ARCTIC includes MX-6 thermal compound in the box, applied in a cross pattern; the pump block distributes it during mounting. Cable management is aided by fan cables integrated into the sleeve, reducing clutter around the CPU socket area. Note: certain motherboards with oversized SSD coolers occupying the M.2_1 slot may be physically incompatible with this cooler’s cold-plate design. ARCTIC provides a compatible M.2 cooler at no additional charge for affected boards. Always verify socket and chassis clearance before purchase.
