Asus ProArt LC 360 Cooling Fan/Radiator/Water Block - 1 Pack

Discover uncompromised cooling performance fused with quiet sophistication. The Asus ProArt LC 360 is a premium all-in-one (AIO) CPU cooler designed for creators, enthusiasts, and professionals who demand reliable thermal management without sacrificing aesthetics. Built around a high-capacity 360 mm radiator, a robust three-phase motor, and Alphacool Apex Stealth Metal Power fans, this cooling solution blends exceptional heat dissipation with refined, understated styling that complements any high-end build. Whether you’re pushing multi-core workloads, editing 4K footage, or overclocking for peak performance, the LC 360 keeps temperatures in check while maintaining a calm, distraction-free environment. From the precision-engineered water block to the luminous accents on the block and fans, this cooler demonstrates ASUS ProArt’s commitment to performance, reliability, and visual appeal.

• Outstanding cooling performance for demanding CPUs: The 360 mm radiator provides a generous surface area to dissipate heat efficiently, allowing high-performance processors to sustain turbo clocks under heavy workloads. Paired with Alphacool Apex Stealth Metal Power fans, the LC 360 delivers strong static pressure and high airflow where it matters most, ensuring rapid heat transfer from the CPU to the coolant. The integration of a robust three-phase motor in the pump enhances coolant flow, enabling consistent cooling across extended rendering sessions, data-intensive tasks, and gaming bursts. This setup reduces thermal throttling and preserves CPU longevity, so creators can focus on work without worrying about thermal limits.
• Whisper-quiet operation for distraction-free work: Quiet performance is a core design principle of the LC 360. The three-phase motor is engineered to minimize vibration and pulsations, while the Alphacool fans are tuned for low-noise operation at typical load levels. The result is a cooling solution that stays unobtrusive during long editing sessions, streaming, or late-night development runs. Users report noticeably muted acoustic signatures compared with standard mid-range coolers, allowing you to work, render, or game with fewer distractions and more concentration.
• Premium build, refined aesthetics, and reliable durability: The ProArt LC 360 embodies the premium craftsmanship associated with the ASUS ProArt line. The water block, tubing, and radiator showcase meticulous engineering, high-grade materials, and precise tolerances. The design emphasizes a refined, understated look that blends with professional workstations and enthusiast builds alike. In addition to performance, the illuminated components add a tasteful glow that can complement your system’s lighting ecosystem, enabling a cohesive, high-end aesthetic across your PC setup.
• Effortless installation and broad compatibility: The LC 360 is designed for straightforward installation with a universal mounting system that supports a wide range of Intel and AMD sockets. The kit includes the necessary mounting brackets and screws, so you can mount the radiator in the top or front of most cases with compatible clearance. The streamlined tubing routing and compact pump housing simplify cable management and minimize case clutter. Whether you’re upgrading an existing cooling loop or building a new system, the LC 360 offers a plug-and-play experience without compromising performance.
• Illumination and build aesthetics that elevate your rig: Lighting plays a subtle yet significant role in modern PC builds. The ProArt LC 360 features illuminated elements on the water block and fans, providing a premium visual cue that can be synchronized with compatible motherboard software or lighting hubs. This illumination adds depth and personality to your system, whether you’re showcasing a content-creation workstation, a studio rig, or a gaming chassis. The lighting design harmonizes with ASUS’s design language and helps your build stand out, while remaining tasteful and professional.

How to install Asus ProArt LC 360

Follow these steps to install the LC 360 in your PC and set it up for optimal cooling and aesthetics. The process is straightforward for most builders, whether you’re upgrading an existing loop or installing a new system.

• 1. Prepare your case and workspace: Ensure there is adequate clearance for a 360 mm radiator in the intended mounting location (top or front) and verify that tubing routing won’t clash with drives, cables, or other components.
• 2. Gather mounting hardware: Use the universal mounting brackets included for your CPU socket (Intel or AMD) and ensure you have all screws and spacers required for your motherboard form factor.
• 3. Attach the backplate and brackets: Install the appropriate backplate for your socket type, then secure the mounting brackets to the motherboard according to the included instructions.
• 4. Mount the water block: Apply thermal interface material if not pre-applied, align the water block with the mounting brackets, and tighten to achieve even pressure across the CPU surface for optimal heat transfer.
• 5. Install the radiator and fans: Position the 360 mm radiator in the case and secure it with the supplied screws. Attach the Alphacool Apex Stealth Metal Power fans to the radiator and route cables neatly toward the fan hub or motherboard headers.
• 6. Connect power and lighting: Connect the pump power lead to an appropriate CPU fan header or dedicated pump header, and attach the fans to the motherboard PWM headers or to the included fan hub. If your case supports ARGB, connect the lighting to the correct ARGB header or hub as instructed.
• 7. Cable management and cleanup: Tidy all cables to prevent interference with fans or fans blades, then double-check that tubing routing is smooth and free of kinks or sharp bends.
• 8. Boot and fine-tune: Power on the system, enter BIOS, and configure fan curves and pump speeds. Use the motherboard software or the included controller (if provided) to tailor the cooling and lighting to your preferences.
