Kindly note, I have made a mistake at timestamp 14:56, be it if you are using the single connector or split connector, the drawing ampere is from the Pump header, make sure you plug the pump header to a 2A fan header or pump header of your motherboard.
also u have to rename timestamp at 25m
@@dddman9220 thank you. Greatly appreciated it to have correct my mistakes 👍👍👍
I have been watching your videos and I kept quiet. You my friend, in every aspect on pc products, you've explained clearly. The details what we wanted, you have provided. I love the way you have illustrate the strenght of a pc product. I did note that other reviewers having issues mounting this AIO but again, you've shown us how easy is to mount it. Pitch perfect, I am now totally convience and will purchase this without hesitation. Thank you for the indepth review.
I have a bit problem at first when installing it but manage to install the 2 screw
Hi james dean, welcome to my channel, Thank you for your valuable feedback. Greatly appreciated it and all the best in your build. 😉
@@Ttblondey I see, if you have a firm foundation as to hold the block, you won't have an issue. Just like the way I have shown in this vid. I have no issues mounting it.
I love how you pretty much confirmed my theory on the correct method of mounting for AMD. The review i saw from Gamer Nexus, they had such a hard time mounting it and I could clearly see he wasn't holding down with enough pressure in order to mount it. They just called it a flaw without trying a different method of mounting. I love how thorough you are with your reviews, you deserve more subs!

Great review! I really love my Arctic II, def purchased the III, and I really like being able to control fans/pumps/vrm cooler individually now, that's great. My II will still get put to good use too, upgrading another system off a dark rock pro 4 (7700k at constant 5.1GHz, previously on nzxt x62)
Hi TheMrDrMs, welcome to my channel and thank you for your valuable feedback. I am glad you have place the LF2 in good use and to purchase the LF3. Yup now you can control the RPM individually. All the best wtih your build 😉
@@KleoYan Got it! I wish the cold plate covered the whole IHS on my AM4 (5900x). Cold plate is large enough, but offset is wrong (or made to be universal, so they compromised) Thanks again!
@rMs Good observation. This I can answer as why Arctic did it this way. Initially they wanted to do separate Liquid Freezer III. a set just for Intel and a set for AMD (coldplate on the pump already offset), which each have a different coldpate. the AMD offset coldpate and the Intel (normal coldpate no offset). But final decision was to do one unit to suit both platform as to reduce the confusion to new pc builders. So thats why for what you purchase right now. Intel will be perfect dead center but for the AMD the offset mounting bracket will move the pump down just to have the coldpate cover the vital part of the AM4 or AM5 Die.
Thank you for this detailed video.

@@ceuser3555 hi welcome back and thank you to have subcribed to my channel. hmm maybe this will aid you further. Now this is not able the MX6, you can apply this to any thermal paste which has good viscosity czcams.com/video/xZ2R4roF1_Q/video.htmlsi=vSD57bjKTBxwdabP , this content I did have add a numerous of viewers to obtain good thermal results on their build. Just a hint, remember to apply thin layer and not too thick. Hope this will help you too and if you have any questions and unable to reach me, you can always drop me an email at godzylatech@gmail.com. I will try to help you out.
@@KleoYan I am considering thermal pad instead of a thermal paste, being a newbie, I can’t guarantee a clean placement of it plus I don’t like the idea of having to reapply it at some point in the future.
great in depth video 🤝
Hi GOLDBULLETS, welcome to my channel and thank you for your feedback. All the best with your build too. 😉
With all the hype about this cooler, everyone complains about the mounting for AMD platform. You are the only one who does it with ease. Your explanation is brillant!

Hello from California, great content.
Hi LoveTheCoffeeBerry, welcome to my channel and thank you for your valuable feedback and all the best with your build too 😉
Thank you for the great review! I have only two questions. What version of the Arctic Freezer II have you used in this comparison? The last one? (v7)
And what type of mounting for AMD socket? (offset mount? Same as the new AFIII?)
Thank you again.
Hello killeragosta, welcome to my channel. I am using a year 2019 Arctic LF2 which is no reversion, but I what I did on the LF2 is, I separate the pump and the fan on different fan header. Pump to the W_Pump header and Radiator fans to the CPU_FAN header.
Great tutorial, loved your channel!
Is there any benefit of using the split connector over the single one?
Hi Daniel Dacorso, welcome to my channel. Yes there is. In my opinion to prolong the lifespan of a pump. It’s best to run it consistent rpm which I have fix. I can control the rpm of vrm fans and radiator fans. If you plug the single cable. What ever you control. All will follow, this will be bad for the pump. Plus for vrm and rad fans the noise you can’t control either. As all three will follow to one settings.
great video ty , question what remote do you use to control the rgb? wasnt aware it can be controlled with a remote control
Hi jay jones, welcome to my channel. I just grab the controller from the Geomatric Futures Eskimo 36 AIO czcams.com/video/hAVIZrZI-V0/video.htmlsi=urmVn3jzvARhtn3P&t=250.

Good job man!
Hi Ross James, welcome back and thank you 😉
Thanks for the informative video brother!
I have one question, does the hose coming out of the pump house conflict with tall m.2 heatsinks on the motherboard? I have an Asus Rog Strix Z790-E (Wifi II) and the heatsink on the top M.2 on that mobo is tall.
Hi Mindris, welcome to my channel and am glad you like this content. Thank you for visiting and all the best with your build too.
Sorry miss out a question. I am not able to answer you on this but there are some who reported that some motherboards will have issues mounting this block as it’s either the m.2 slot is too near or it’s too tall. You might want to check the compatibility list at Arctic website. Click on the installation guide of the LF3 and it will list down which motherboard is compatible or not compatible.
@@KleoYan Thank you so much, I found it and it's compatible.
@@Mindris good to hear. All the best with your build.
Thank You! ❤

@@KleoYan I got the freezer 2 360mm for like 4 years now, is amazing, but i think i want a change, so i will buy the freezer 3, is there a cover for the fan vram, i don't want to see the arctic logo?
I see 3-4 celsius difference, it's nothing, i want it for the design and to support Arctic, love their coolers and prices!
btw you did an amazing job with this video, much appreciated man!
@@Silent-1983 that's nice. me too, I am having the LF2 280 which is still running after 4 years. As for the logo on the VRM fan, there are no cover and the logo is pretty hard to remove. Thank you for your valuable feedback and all the best with your build too 😉
I'm curious as to how high the pump block is from the motherboard to the top of the pump. I'm using a vertical mounted GPU and I'm not sure that the pump block will fit, I suspect it might hit the GPU, or the tubes will. Can you give me some insight?
Hi SREDNA, welcome to my channel. A very good question. Let me see what I can do on my next content, but do pardon me as it will take sometime. Hope you don’t mind to wait. 👍
This is my issue as well. I have a vertically mounted 4090, and its practically up against the bottom my RAM. Add the offset for AMD platforms and the pump block gets even lower. Ooof!
@@deuswulf6193 hmm. I think I have replied on this.. all these feedback will be going to Arctic 😉
This is the best installation video, very detailed. I haven’t seen anyone else do a more in-depth installation for newbies like me who have not done a pc build. Please upload a full PC build step by step instruction please. Thank you.
Hi CE User, welcome to my channel. For the basic setup, I have done a series and you might want to check it out. The principle are of the same when I builld a PC.

@@KleoYan thank you. I will look into it. I have not built a PC before and I have the parts but still anxious to start. It’s always hard to let go of a currently usable PC that was assembled in store.
@@KleoYan i was not able to see your channel before I got my PC case. I bought a meshify 2 xl as many have recommended that this one can safely fit a 420mm aio from arctic and my motherboard is msi x670e ace, an e-atx mobo.
@@ceuser3555 I do have the same feeling like you when I just started, but I move on. There are valuable lessons at the begining too. Just stay focus and practice safety when you are assembling PC parts. Handle with care and double check all connections on the actual build. In my guide, I always test PC equipment first and to install the OS before I mount all to a PC. I wish you all the very best.
@@ceuser3555 yup, that's correct, you should not have an issue to mount the LF3 420 to a meshify 2 xl, even though your case was tested with the LF2 420 but the size on both LF2 and LF3 are identical. The only slight difference is that LF2 has a wide of 140mm else for the LF3 is at 138mm. Don't worry too much, you will be fine 😉
how do the Arctic 280 fit in the top of the montech king 95 ? Its such a thick boy. wish this would have been out with the montech king 95 review.
Hi Mercurio, welcome to my channel. I would say a hit and miss as the size lenght of LF2 and LF3 280 are the same. you can watch this video czcams.com/video/Vc1MD0bbcoE/video.htmlsi=EyIA5ZhzpVB0pNo2&t=1543 watch timestap 25:43
Installing it at the top of the pc case (mine is enthoo pro) is critical especially on the clearance to motherboard. I opted for the 360 because it has thinner fans at 25mm while the 280/420 is 27mm.
Hi MSJI 1722, welcome to my channel. A good choice made. Thank you for sharing your input and all the best with your build too. 😉
I have this AIO as well, I got the 360 III BLACK version and upgraded the 3 fans to an Arctic P12 Max, and it is powerful! With the P12 Max upgrade, I can now dissipate to 300W thermal. On the standard fans, I think at 288W was doable. Right now I set my CPU (i9-14900K) to PL1=253W and PL2=253W, ICC=307A, under volted to an OFFSET of 0.1V, with a Cinebench 23 score of Multi-core = 39075, Single Core = 2351. It's a recommended Cooler for every INTEL I9 especially for the 14th gen series.
Hi Half_r_mk5, welcome to my channel, thank you for sharing your experience. Greatly appreciated it 👍
@@KleoYanHey thanks! Good review. I just did another test on my i9-14900K, set the PL1=288w, and PL2=288, ICC=400A Max...It temporarily throttled on P-Core2 that was the only thing for a few seconds, then it was ok, Final temps were 96c no major thermal throttling, with a final Cinebench 23 score of Multi=40307, and my Single Core = 2344, just went down a bit on the single core. Still it is a capable AIO cooler.
@@half_r_mk5 nice, am glad you like this liquid cooler.
Does the cover have any function other than holding lights and looking pretty?
Hi snaplash, welcome to my channel. The cover not only does ARGB, it has a fan which helps to cool or sweep off the hot areas of your motherboard vrm area.
Great videos just thinking about buying this however I have seen some review with people saying that it is extremely loud what do you think is it loud or quite.
Hi Starwarsxmarvel, welcome to my channel. The noise to me is not loud but still it’s up to individual listening. Also you might be interested to know which type of processor to apply on. czcams.com/video/ca2zGSQvWog/video.html

Great video! Do you know if it is possible to change the orientation of the Arctic logo on the pump-cover?
Hi Perrajajaja, welcome to my channel. Nope you can't change the orientation of of the pump-cover.
Thanks for the response! That's to bad, since the logo will be sitting at a 90percent angle in my case😂
@@Perrajajaja you are most welcome. I would not advise you to mount the pump hose at the side. Infact I don't think you can do that as the mounting brackets only allows you to mount either hose up or hose down and not towards the rear (Rear I/O) nor front (Ram slot). Overall as mentioned, for best results is to mount your hose facing towards the m.2 slot.
Thanks for the replies! In my case, the backplate of the motheboard is facing upwards, so the orientation looks different😊
@@Perrajajaja ok, then you got to be flexible to see what is applicable to you to fit the contact frame.
Could u change the fans for this AIO? I'm asking cuz i wanted to use lian li fans to go with the rest but if i can't I'm fine with the stock fans
Hi Dead Cypher, welcome to my channel. Yes you can. After you have changed the fans. Just make sure your Lian Li uni fans are plug to its own controller. As for the connection on the LF3. Plug the single cable which controls the pump and vrm to the pump header on the motherboard.
i have same 7950x can i ask what do you find good air cooler? cuz i dont wanna use aio. i got traumatized before my aio was leaked and i dont plan to go aio back anymore
HI Pouring Poipoi, welcome to my channel. The aircooler I have tested and will not break your bank are as follow. Thermalright Phanstom spirit SE 120 (7pipe) , Deepcook AK620 and Montech DT24. these will be my pick.
Got the arctic Freezer III today, can you show us your MSi BIOS Monitor Fan settings?
hi Cheaterjung, welcome to my channel, do pardon me, I have dismantle the unit but the settings are as follow
Radiator fans - CPU_FAN set to smart fan on PWM and temperture sensor to CPU.
VRM Fan - SYS_FAN set to smart fan on PWM and temperture sensor to motherboard
Pump - PUMP_FAN, disable smart fan and set to full, sensor to CPU

i have an AIO already it’s the Deepcool LT520 do I still need to remove the brackets for that AIO to properly install Liquid Freezer 3?
Hi it'sCartmanBrah, welcome to my channel. Yes you need to as different band liquid AIO have their own mounting mechanism. You will need to take the lt520 mounting and change them accordingly it the liquid freezer III.

There is no thermal throtling with the 280? Why cores only at 5.1 and not 5.7?
Hi Chema Alonso, welcome to my channel. I am from a hot and humid country year round and I prefer to stay at 80 to 85 degrees max. If cooling allows I will pump power limit up. Or PBO2 settings up.
Hello,
Why do you say you have to clean with alcohol before applying thermal paste if it's brand new?
Did you mean if there was still thermal paste left on it or did I misunderstand?
Because I don't see the point if I have a new processor and new AIO to clean with alcohol to apply thermal paste. By the way I received my Liquid Freezer III 420 a-rgb today, very excited to build the PC.
Oh I understood you are talking about cleaning the AIO for possible sticky plastic residue, not for the processor itself
Hi SENVOK, welcome to my channel. It's up to you. I just have a practice on this. Processor is new yes you can just plug and play but for me, I will clean it first and as for liquid aio coldplate, once you remove the plastic cover, there might be residue on the coldpate, thats why I clean it too.
Does thicker the radiator would be better for cooling? In all AIO brand, the Arctic AIO only use the thick rads and does the thicker rads when installing inside a smaller case (Example: Asus Prime AP201) would take a lot of space, right?
Hi MicerGlancer, welcome to my channel and yes, which thicker radiator and good static air pressure, your CPU temp will be lower. In practice why Arctic is always listed top AIO is due to their radiator thickness where other brands AIO are following. Example, from 27mm standard thickness to 30mm or 32mm. You see, bigger surface area will absorb more heat and to dissipate heat. With the higher static air pressure like the Arctic P12 Max, temperature will go alot lower. As for mounting into cases, there are restriction on space, you will need to check if it can fit to your case. as for Prime AP201, is a no go to use LF2 or LF3.
@@KleoYantrue, I heard if you install LF2 or LF3 in the smaller case you won’t connect all the cables on the top of the Motherboard because of thick Radiator. That’s make sense. In your opinion between LF3 and ASUS ROG Ryujin III which would be better in term of price to performance
@@MG0301 about this, both perform well. but Arctic LF3 has the upper hand if using 280 or 420 with the improvement made, 1st it's quiet, 2nd the surface area is more. 3rd it will definately out perform the ryujin
@@KleoYan ok, Thank you so much, Boss
@@MG0301 hmm.. call me Kleo will do and thank you to have visited.

I have a question...
Do you think the 280mm aio will be enough for 7950x (in eco mode 105W, or even 65W)?
Or maybe I should go for 360mm?
Hi Przemek N, welcome to my channel. Yes the 280 definitely is more than enough to tame the 7950x. Just make sure that your case have enough clearance to mount it.
@@KleoYanThank you for your answer.
I want aio 280mm because I want to build a relatively compact computer.
But everywhere I read: "buy 360mm!"
@@przemekn.8814 many do not know this, a 280 LF2 or LF3 can defeat the 360 on thermal and they are quiet to run. This is due to the 140mm fans which can run at lower rpm and to push more air to the radiator. Also imaging 360 is a cup and 280 is a plate. You pour hot water to both, when you use a domestic fan and blow both at the same time. Which will cool faster? The hot water in the cup (360) or the hot water on the plate (280)?
@@KleoYanThank you! You convinced me. So I decide on aio 280mm (I've never had water cooling). I'll probably choose LF3.
@@przemekn.8814 you are most welcome. Just be sure that your case can fit and have enough clearance from the motherboard vrm heatsink area. Also just to share, besides watching how to mount the LF3 in this content. Try this method apply thermal paste.

Very good video, what is the noise comparison between the 280mm iii and the 320mm iii?
Hi guillado gui, welcome to my channel, just my opinion. both are quiet but some says it's loud. in comparision between 280 and 360 of the LF3. 280 will definately be of less noise as the 140mm fans RPM is lower but grabs more air pressure. This is due to the bigger blade diameter.
@@KleoYan thank u I ordered the 360mm LF3 for the same intel cpu that u are using 13700k I haven’t put it together but I’m still deciding which one would be better for me I want something quiet. U think the 280mm LFiii would be enough for that cpu
@@guilladogui8259 hi a lot do not know this. Infact a 280 is better than a 360

Hi, I got PUMP, VRM and FAN cable and I don't know where to put them since the fans work, but I don't get any RGB lightings working
Hi Jonathan Jansson, welcome to my channel. which motherboard are you using, mind to list out the brand and model.
@@KleoYan ASUS Prime Z790-A WIFI
@@JJsNightmare based on your motherboard manual dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1700/PRIME%20Z790-A%20WIFI/E21270_PRIME_Z790-A_WIFI_UM_V3_WEB.pdf?model=PRIME%20Z790-A%20WIFI page 12 of 80. I will do this, plug your LF3 pump connector to AIO_PUMP (1A) as the total power draw from your LF3 pump (0.35A) + VRM Fan (0.05A) + 3 x P14 ARGB Fans (0.17A) is a total of 0.91A, then plug your LF3 fan connector to CPU_FAN and your LF3 VRM connector to CPU_OPT. as for your ARGB connector, plug to the 3pin 5v ARGB header on your motherboard, use armoury crate and when at the aura sync dashboard, select the argb header which you want to control the argb effects of your fans and pump.
So, this LF3 better than Ryujin III, sir? Currently, I use ryujin III, and my 14900k min temp 37-38 idle, but I think it's still hot. My room tempt a bit hotter than yours, around 32-33, so I think to replace it with this LFIII. 😅
Hi JosieGan, welcome to my channel. This I have no comments but for LF2 or LF3 280 or 420, with good static pressure, it will out beat the ryjin III 360.

Good job man,
Quick question, I have a 120mm arctic 2 with a defective pump, do you think it is possible to adapt the arctic 3 pump to the arctic 2 ?
HI RCPxx R , welcome to my channel. I am unsure what you meants by adapt the Liquid Freezer III to the Liquid Freezer II. both Arctic Liquid Freezer II and Freezer III have a different structure. LF3 will be an improvement over the LF2 in terms of temp on an AMD platform.

@@rcpxxr4452 as mentioned both are of different builds. Structure are different so nope. Why the hassle? I mean if you have the LF3. Just replace your LF2 or If your LF2 pump is faulty and it’s still under warranty, you can raise an RMA with Arctic and get it fix.

all this hassle? Because there is no lf3 aio with 1 fan. For fun I would have upgraded my lf2 with the lf3 pump.

For me was hard af to mount this aio i scratch a lil bit the copper plate from the aio but is too little, is going to be a problem or it doesnt matter? The problem i had is that only one side was going down and the other one never was going down you have to do a lot of press...
Hi Juli Gómez, welcome to my channel the little scratch is ok, don’t worry about that. As for mounting, yes it does take a little force but the main point is to have sturdy grip and to anchor the thread in place. I guess it greatly depends on how each individual hold and to position the pump block.
@@KleoYan nah finally I mounted but thats all 3 lil Scratch, but comon artic, thats too hard to screw the screws.. thanks for the reply cause I quit the thermal paste and again put it ill check when I got all the build the temps and other thing I put all vrm,pump and 3 P14Max on the CPU fan on my motherboard cause its support 3A in total, my question is if P14Max works on 0db Ill put a curve till 40% 0db what are going to happend with vrm and water pump?, are going to work at minimum rpm? And what is the optimal rpms for vrm and water pump always 100% or with the 0db curve from artic IS fine?
@@juligomez2493 I would use the split cable. Pump connector will be providing power to VRM and Radiator fans, use the VRM on a fan header and I would set to run at 50%, you do not need to run VRM fan at full, it's just to assist to sweep off the warm air from VRM areas. As for fan connector (Radiator fans) do as per normal with your own fan curve which is based on the thermal of your CPU. Last but not least. I will leave the pump at 100%, if it's loud then set to 80% consistently.

@@Ttblondey hi welcome to my channel, yes they are. scan the QR Code and it will take you to the shop where you can purchase the desk fan.
Where does the vrm specific cable go. There is absolutely no instructions or guidance anywhere from artic about this.
Hi Hardware Tuned, welcome to my channel. I would do this. Since the pump connector provides power to your pump, vrm fan and your radiator fans (I have correct this, please refer to my pin up comment) I would connect the pump connector to any motherboard fan header which has a 2A load. best is to connect it to W_PUMP or AIO_PUMP, kindly check the ampere of your motherboard which provides 2A.
@@KleoYan I'm using separate connections. So I'll ask again. Where does the VRM ONLY cable go.
@@Hardwaretuned for VRM connector, you can plug to CHA_FAN or SYS_FAN, as there are only 2 wires on VRM. then set the fan curve accordingly to your liking.
Great explanation. I see the fans are setup for push and the fan cables are daisy chained and the last one goes down into the tubes sleeving . What if you want to mount the rad in the front of the case and have fans setup for pull. Can they easily be flipped over and can you still have the cables go down the side of the rad that is hidden. Also what if you want to change the fans completely ? How do you remove the fan cabling from inside the tubes sleeving ?
HI Keith Flanagan, welcome to my channel. if you flip the fans to pull configuration, the cable which is in the tube is long enough to cater for the other side and if you change fans, I would still plug to the tube cable or you can choose to plug at a separate cable which is directly plug to your motherboard fan header. As for the cable that is in the tube, you can't remove it. I will just cable tie it and to hide it nicely.
As you can see in this test, for the LF2, I have done the separation, as I know if I am to use the LF2 single cable, the rotation of the pump and fan will be much weak. So I have the LF2 pump to my Pump_Fan and radiator fan to CPU_Fan. For the LF3, I am using the splitted cables and not the single cable.

Hi Random Prog, welcome to my channel, do pardon me as I no longer have any AM4 platform in hand, so sorry about it, but the way to apply the block to the IHS in a AM5 platform is of the same as applying to an AM4 platform.
They took a huge step backwards with the LFIII pump. It's very loud and I had to return mine. It's literally the only thing I hear on my PC since all my other components are virtually silent XD
Hi OuKi, welcome to my channel and thank you for your feedback. I guess is up to individual sensitivity on noise. I have tested 3 unit, 1 which is provided by Arctic and 2 which are purchased. I don't find them noisy, as mentioned, it depends on individual hearing, plus you can tune the RPM for the VRM, you don't have to run full, VRM fan can be tune in a way that during idle it can run at 800rpm, once temperature goes up, you can also set the max rpm run.

@@KleoYan all is good. It's still a steal at the current sales price for those who aren't bother by it.
@@ouki4925 thank you for the reply. greatly appreciated it.
I agree, though mostly with the design of the water block. The placement of the tubes on the pump itself are a limiting factor for some builds, and rotating the pump is not even an option. Maybe intel can flip it, but AMD is a no go as it would offset in the wrong direction. At least with the LF2, the tubes didn't get in the way of anything.
@@deuswulf6193 hi welcome back, something which we should feedback to Arctic. on my end let me reflect this to them. Hopefully infuture if there is a LF4, this might be their consideration. Thank you again for your feedback.
Nobody talks about how much the tube on the bottom stick out from the AM4 socket. I'm pretty sure the tubes will collide with my vertical GPU mount. But there is no way to verify without actually trying. Asked Arctic support for (offset) measurements, but they told me to ask my case manufacturer if it's compatible. 😒
Hi ObscenePizza, welcome to my channel. That's a very good point you've pointed out. Another commenter did mention if it's possible to Vertical mount a GPU, I see what I can do to illustrate that but it will take sometime, hope you dont mind waiting. Thank you!

@@ObscenePizza you are most welcome. as mentioned. I will see what I can do. thank you for the suggestion. some info which I have gathered. It will be difficult to do Vertical Mount with a 4090 GPU as the height of the GPU will block the AIO from mounting it behind the GPU as the hose are the issue.

Hi prince prefa, welcome to my channel. Yes, alot did message me and told me that. I guess is up to individual and the key point is to support before mounting, let gravity does it's job. If you observe carefully, I rest my whole palm on the ram slots which give me a steady platfrom when I am holding the AIO Pump block, also the anchor points of my fingers which covers the back, middle and front, then I screw the block in. If you observe what other reviewers are doing, they hold by the back or even at the radiator hose, which gives unsteady or unfirm grip on the AIO block. That's why to me is easy as I just let gravity does it's work.
This doesnt work on a msi b450m bazooka and a ryzen 5 5600x unfortunately. Sad I cant use this.

Hi jake, welcome to my channel. thank you for your feedback. Alot talking about it and I have tested another unit which was purchased off shelves. both which is one provided by Arctic and the one which I have purchased. I don't feel it's loud.. maybe is due to individual sensitivity in hearing.
Such a hot guy! 🥵
Hi D-Gaming, welcome to my channel and yes it's real hot as illustrated, that's why I promote a very practical desk fan. 😉
How is it possible to make a 52 minutes video out of a cooler Installation, unboxing and so on... no one saw the whole video, right?
Hi NUMB, welcome to my channel. Some who are interested to know everything will watch and some just wanted some key points, they will look for the time stamp which I’ve created. So it’s your choice to watch full or just point to point.
@@KleoYan Thank you, I watched the review, then circled back a couple of times for reference of different points
@@gregwillis4001 hi and welcome to my channel. Hope this content did aid you and thank you for your feedback. Btw how did your mounting went?
Bro, while I appreciate you taking the time to make this video, your method of installing the pump still doesn't work for me. In the end, it was lots of effort(and grunting and sweating and cursing) just to install it.
Hi Mark Long, welcome to my channel. Yup a lot ask me this question and mentioned that I mount this not inside a case. Maybe is just steady hands and I tried both outside and inside a case. I have no issues with it. Still thank you for your feedback.
This piece of junk is nothing but misery to install. I'm really close to shipping it back.
Hi Jackie Rose, welcome back. So sorry to hear that. I guess is better off for you to return this unit and to get something which you are happy with.. by the end of the day, no point to have compromises. Wish you all the best with your next Liquid AIO.
Work on mic control. Noisy mouth in other words
Hi DETERMINOLOGY, welcome to my channel and thank you for your feedback.
its ugly
Hi u kosku, welcome to my channel. I guess each has their own liking. Nevertheless, thank you for your feedback.
@KleoYan Thank you for reply. As you already know, your channel has great and informative content. Big hello from Serbia.
@@vladophilip hi, thank you and you are most welcome. 👍
Very noticeable pump whine when the pump turbine runs at full speed.
Radiator plus fans is thick. If you top mount this you'll need a tall case to clear the motherboard.
Hi Robert Zanatta, welcome to my channel. For the pump noise along with the VRM fans, yes they are not as quiet as the Liquid Freezer II and you are right about the clearance. It's a similar situation with LF2. Infact in most of my case reviews, I always take Liquid Freezer II to measure the clearance. Once again thank you for your feedback and to have visited my channel. 👍👍👍
