Nah the ARCTIC Liquid Freezer – II 360 is still the one to beat as it's so dang quiet while only being 2 C warmer

I have previously reviewed that cooler:

Silent and strong performance make Arctic’s 360 AIO a compelling cooling option.

Unfortunately, ARCTIC's Liquid Freezer II is unable to keep CPUs like Intel's i7-13700K under TJMax in the most intensive workloads - which is why it isn't included in this review.

Why not use the 13900K instead? To see how much this AIO can cool, it's total limit.

Good question.

The motherboard I was using for my i9-13900K system died, and because I was using a Thermalright LGA1700 frame it wouldn't be eligible for warranty. I'll probably start using an i9 again for cooler testing when the i9-14900K is released.
