This liquid cooling system is primarily aimed at users who prioritize maximum cooling performance without distracting lighting. The efficiency of the ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 420 is based on a large 420 mm aluminum radiator with 38 mm thickness. This solution increases the total volume of coolant and the heat-dissipating surface area, allowing the system to handle substantial thermal loads.
The radiator is ventilated by three 140 mm P14 Pro fans that generate high static pressure (5.2 mm H2O) and airflow up to 110 CFM, which is critical for effective operation with dense fin stacks. The water block design incorporates several engineering solutions to improve heat transfer: an additional VRM fan for active cooling of the motherboard’s VRM area, an offset mounting layout for optimal coverage of modern CPU hotspots, and a special contact frame for Intel sockets that distributes clamping force evenly. Installation is simplified by pre-routed fan cables integrated into the sleeving of the tubes, which helps keep the interior of the case neat.

ARCTIC's P14 PRO FAN: More power at any speed - more powerful and quieter than the P14, especially at low speeds. Higher maximum speed for optimal cooling performance under high load
NATIVE OFFSET MOUNTING FOR INTEL AND AMD: Shifting the cold plate center towards the CPU hotspot ensures more efficient heat transfer
INTEGRATED VRM FAN: PWM-controlled fan that lowers the temperature of the voltage converters and thus ensures reliable performance
INTEGRATED CABLE MANAGEMENT: The PWM cables of the radiator fans are integrated in the sheathing of the hoses so that only a single visible cable is connected to the motherboard

Offset Mounting for Intel and AMD
Shifts the cold plate to the CPU hotspot for more efficient heat transfer.
Intel Contact Frame
Optimized contact pressure distribution for longer CPU lifespan and improved heat dissipation.
Integrated Cable Management
Fan cables integrated into the sleeving simplify installation and minimize cable clutter.
The New P14 Pro Fans
More Performance at Any Speed The P14 Pro unleashes its full potential: quieter and more powerful at low speeds with greater performance reserves under load—for maximum cooling without compromise. Speed: 400-2500 rpm Bearing: Fluid Dynamic Bearing Static Pressure: 5.2 mmH2O Airflow: 110 cfm Premium-Class Radiator
The 38 mm radiator not only enhances heat dissipation but also holds more liquid than conventional 27 mm radiators. This reduces heat buildup and ensures more efficient handling of temperature spikes.
Premium Tubing
Reinforced EPDM tubing with braided sheathing for increased durability
Easy Installation
Pre-installed pre-wired fans straightforward mounting and an animated online manual.
Includes MX-6 Thermal Paste
Simply apply in a cross pattern—the water pump’s cold plate distributes the paste evenly
Two Control Options
With the splitter cable the pump VRM fan and radiator fans can be controlled separately or synchronized via a single PWM signal with the all-in-one cable.
Check Your Case for Compatibility
Please note that the Liquid Freezer requires at least 63 mm of clearance for installation
