REVIEW / ARCTIC NEWS
Tested on Ryzen 5600X.
Idle reaches 25.5c (Ambient 23c)
In extreme bench 56c with PBO off and 64c with PBO on. In games, it rarely exceeds 75c over time with the specific TDP.
I have been using Arctic for years to keep my mind at ease and fans because I like silent builds, although some batches of P12 White recently had some issues with the wiring referring to the separate P12 ARGB fans and not this specific AIO.
With the Liqueed Freezer III 360, I was truly amazed by the temperatures.
As for the installation, it may seem a bit tricky at first since the thick tubes don't help, so what many say is true. Check on YouTube to clear your doubts. For convenience, try to install it before screwing the motherboard into the case if you have the corresponding experience with this method.
Always silent because it’s Arctic. Quieter compared to the Liqueed Freezer II.
For those using ALL IN ONE connection, meaning with one cable, make sure the fan curve starts from 40%, i.e., 20c or 25c - 40% so that the pump operates at 100% immediately as it should and as Arctic recommends. The VRM fan runs at max RPM by default.
With the connection of the three cables, check AIO Fans, Pump, VRM Fan if you have the corresponding headers on the motherboard. Since the pump in every AIO must run at 100%, and the VRM fan is extremely quiet, this control and connection are practically unnecessary.
Prefer the first method for ease.
They did this after user requests who wanted control over the Pump. Thus, they also provided control over the VRM fan.
The thickness of the radiator, like the Freezer II, is large but is for a good reason.
Check it out before buying and keep in mind that at some point you need to invest in a quality and spacious case if a such AIO doesn’t fit.
In the future, the "easy" way to connect the fans MUST be redesigned (something LianLi has been doing for years), the addition of easy liquid refilling as Enermax started 6-7 years ago, and finally, an LCD Panel on the pump should be released for the first time... maybe it's already designed and will be launched at the end of the new year? Perhaps!
Surely the new generation will bid farewell to the name Liqueed Freezer.
A company that listens to its consumers on social media and maintains a low price with maximum performance. Unyielding.
