Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro 240 Review & Specifications

The Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro 240 by Arctic is a Liquid CPU cooler designed for compatibility with LGA 1700, LGA 1851, AM4, AM5 sockets.

This liquid cooler uses a high-efficiency CPU block made of Copper for optimal heat transfer. It features a 240 radiator with dimensions of 277x 120 x 38mm, paired with 2 fan(s) of 120 mm each. The fan(s) operate at a maximum speed of 3000 RPM with a noise level of 30.0 dBA, achieving a total airflow of 77.0 CFM. Please ensure your PC case can accommodate the radiator size and mounting configuration. You can check compatibility with our PC Builder, which filters cases based on radiator size. This cooler does not include RGB lighting, focusing instead on performance, reliability, and low acoustic output. The cooler is backed by a 6-year warranty, providing long-term reliability and manufacturer support.

Performance

Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro 240 is a high-end performance liquid CPU cooler built for CPUs with a TDP exceeding 200 W, delivering an excellent relative cooling performance score of 87.00%. It is particularly well-suited for high-end gaming PCs, as it helps exhaust heat directly outside the case, improving internal airflow and thermal headroom for powerful GPUs. While it can be used in workstation builds, caution is advised due to inherently lower reliability compared to air coolers. Liquid coolers offer top-tier thermal performance, often unmatched by air coolers, but come with increased complexity, more moving parts (such as the pump), a risk of coolant leakage, and a higher likelihood of requiring maintenance over time.

Cost-Effectiveness

In terms of performance per dollar, the Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro 240 offers excellent value for a liquid cooler, achieving 54.7% efficiency relative to the best-performing air cooler in the performance-per-price category. Note: Liquid coolers generally have a lower performance-to-price ratio due to their more complex design and higher manufacturing costs. Despite this, this model represents an excellent cost-effective option for users seeking the benefits of liquid cooling.
