Arctic Liquid Freezer 240 AIO Cooler Review

Performance
Stock performance on this cooler was far better than I expected, which is obviously a good thing. It’s clear that the push-pull configuration is pulling its weight here and the results are easily some of the best we’ve seen so far; the idle temp is a glitch in the chart, it’s actually 1c.
Even when overclocked, our idle temps are incredibly low here, but it’s the overclocking performance that we’re really happy with. Sure it’s not the best we’ve seen, but it’s on par with the T12, which is more expensive for starters.
Even with four fans, we found the cooler to be very agreeable in terms of acoustics. It’s on par with many high-end silence focused coolers and many dual fan designs.
When overclocked, the acoustics crept up a bit, but no more so than any other 240mm radiator design, despite the fact we’ve already got extra fans at work here. I’d be happy to push that fan speed a little higher if you wanted to cut a few extra degrees from the temperatures.
