ASUS RYUJIN III 360 ARGB EXTREME liquid cooler

What it is and who it suits

The ASUS ROG RYUJIN III 360 ARGB EXTREME is an all-in-one liquid CPU cooler built around an Asetek Gen8 V2 pump and three 120 mm magnetic ARGB fans. It fits AMD AM4, AM5 and Intel LGA 1200, 1700 and 1851 sockets. The 3.5-inch 640x480 LCD shows live system data or custom GIFs. It is aimed at builders who want integrated monitoring and simplified cable routing.

Limits of the AIO standard and interface

The radiator occupies three 120 mm fan slots and measures 360 mm in length, so the case must support a 360 mm mounting position. Fans run at up to 89.73 CFM with a listed noise level of 36 dB(A). The pump block is 89 x 92 x 108 mm and includes an embedded VRM fan. AURA Sync controls the ARGB lighting. No external reservoir or custom-loop fittings are present.

What to check on your existing setup

Verify that your chassis has clearance for a 360 mm radiator plus 30 mm thick fans and the 108 mm tall pump block. Confirm the motherboard socket matches the supported list above. Ensure a USB 2.0 header and a 5 V ARGB header are free for the LCD and lighting. The package includes pre-applied thermal compound and daisy-chain fan cables. Buyers who need a smaller radiator or a non-LCD block should consider other models.
