The new ASUS ProArt LC 360 proves to be a very aesthetically pleasing heatsink, yet without sacrificing quality and performance. The Alphacool fans are among the highest performing and most interesting in their class, however with a peak speed that can touch 3,000 RPM they are also very noisy at full speed.
The ASUS ProArt Z890-Creator WiFi proved to be a really solid motherboard, meticulously crafted in design and detail and with performance that has little to envy even the most expensive and emblazoned enthusiast-grade models with Z890 chipsets for Intel Core Ultra 200 CPUs.
The ROG Strix X870-A Gaming WiFi is an advanced motherboard compatible with AMD Ryzen 9000/8000/7000 series CPUs, supporting up to 192 GB of DDR5 RAM at 8000 MT/s. It features cutting-edge connectivity with PCIe 5.0, built-in Wi-Fi, 2.5 Gb Ethernet, USB4, and Type-C with Power Delivery. With 16+2+2 90A power stages and an optimized cooling design, it ensures stable performance, making it ideal for high-end gaming.
So, if you want to get an efficient factory liquid cooling system with a restrained design from a well-known manufacturer, ProArt LC 360 will be a good choice, but its price will be appropriate.
ASUS ProArt LC 360 appears to be a premium water cooling system designed for demanding users and professionals. It emphasizes quality workmanship, materials and quiet operation. The lack of RGB backlighting is intentional and fits the focus of the ProArt series. The cooler coped well with the demanding Intel Core i9 13900K processor. Tests showed a slight superiority of the supplied Alphacool fans over the Arctic P12 PWM fans both in quietness and higher cooling performance.
