Ready for Intel LGA 1700 and AMD AM5
The AORUS WATERFORCE II 360 is an all-in-one liquid cooler built for modern desktop CPUs. It supports Intel sockets 1150, 1151, 1155, 1156, 1200, 1700 and 1851 alongside AMD AM4 and AM5 platforms. A copper cold plate transfers heat to a 394 by 119 by 27 millimetre aluminium radiator. Three 120 millimetre fans move air across the fins.
Sustained load behaviour with 2300 RPM ceiling
Under continuous load the pump and fans can spin up to 2300 RPM while noise rises to 36.9 dBA. At idle the fans drop to 800 RPM and 12.8 dBA for quiet operation. The blade profile delivers 64.95 CFM airflow and 2.93 mmH2O static pressure to keep coolant temperatures stable during long sessions. Hydraulic dynamic bearings maintain consistent speed over time.
EZ-Chain fans and rotatable block simplify builds
The EZ-Chain system uses a slide-in interlocking mechanism with daisy-chain wiring so power and signal cables link between fans without extra headers. The water block housing rotates 330 degrees letting you orient the logo or fittings as needed. Universal PWM control works with any motherboard brand for pump and fan curves. ARGB lighting syncs across compatible ecosystems.

Questions about this item
How loud are the three 120 mm fans at full speed and what is the pump noise level?
The fans run from 12.8 to 36.9 dBA across their 800 to 2300 RPM range; the pump itself is not rated for noise in the supplied data.
Which motherboard headers and sockets do I need for the pump, fans and ARGB lighting?
The cooler fits Intel LGA 1150, 1151, 1155, 1156, 1200, 1700 and 1851 plus AMD AM4 and AM5; it uses standard 4-pin PWM fan headers and a 5 V ARGB header for lighting control.
Will the 394 mm radiator and 72.8 mm pump block clear my existing RAM and VRM heatsinks?
The radiator is 394 x 119 x 27 mm and the pump block is 72.8 x 72.8 x 65.1 mm; the block rotates 330 degrees so you can orient it away from tall memory or VRM coolers.
