Asus ROG RYUJIN III 360 ARGB White Edition Cooling Fan/Radiator/Water Block/Pump

The Asus ROG Ryujin III 360 ARGB White Edition redefines high-end liquid cooling for demanding PC builders. Engineered to deliver cooler temps, whisper-quiet operation, and show-stopping aesthetics, this 360mm AIO combines a large radiator, a smart 3.5-inch LCD panel, and a premium pump block to keep the latest Intel and AMD processors performing at their best. The White Edition’s pristine finish pairs perfectly with modern white-themed builds, and the integrated ARGB lighting gives you full control over color, intensity, and effects through Aura Sync. Beyond looks, Ryujin III is designed for serious enthusiasts who want synchronized visuals, real-time hardware telemetry, and reliable performance under load. With a refined pump design and larger coolant tubing, it’s built to maintain cool temperatures even as workloads spike, while maintaining a quiet, unobtrusive profile in daily use.

• Vivid 3.5-inch LCD display on the pump—live system stats at a glance. The Ryujin III puts critical data right in front of you: CPU and GPU temperatures, clock speeds, fan and pump RPMs, and more, all rendered on a crisp, colorful panel. You can also display animated GIFs or your own artwork for a personalized touch that’s always on display. This screen not only adds flair to your build but also serves as a practical dashboard for monitoring thermal health during intense gaming sessions or productivity runs.
• 360mm radiator with optimized cooling capacity and ARGB fans. The expansive 360mm radiator surface area provides substantial heat dissipation for modern CPUs, including multi-core and high-TDP chips. Paired with Aura Sync-enabled ARGB fans, you get striking lighting that responds to your system’s state and your chosen color palettes. The combination delivers robust cooling headroom while maintaining a lower fan speed, reducing noise without sacrificing performance. It’s ideal for overclocking or sustained performance workloads where thermal throttling is a concern.
• 8th Gen Asetek pump and enhanced tubing for dependable, quiet operation. The Ryujin III uses an efficient, low-noise Asetek-based pump designed to move coolant steadily through the loop. The pump’s placement on the CPU block reduces vibration and improves thermal transfer, while larger-diameter coolant tubes promote smoother flow and more consistent temperatures. Even under heavy load, the pump runs quietly, letting you focus on your game or work without intrusive noise. The combination of a high-quality pump and well-sized tubing ensures long-term reliability and stable performance over time.
• White Edition aesthetic with premium finish and durable construction. The White Edition elevates the look of any white or light-colored build with a clean, premium surface and coordinated ARGB accents. The finish is designed for easy cleaning and high-visibility lighting, so your system looks as good as it performs. This edition is built with durability in mind, using high-grade materials and precise assembly tolerances to resist daily wear while maintaining pristine visuals as you upgrade other components.
• Universal compatibility and user-friendly installation. Designed to fit a wide range of modern platforms, the Ryujin III 360 ARGB White Edition supports current Intel and AMD sockets with a simple, straightforward mounting process. It comes with pre-applied thermal paste, integrated fan and pump controls, and a layout that makes cable management easier in larger cases. Whether you’re building a sleek showpiece or a performance-driven workstation, this cooler is engineered to integrate smoothly with your existing components and motherboard features, delivering reliable cooling without a complicated setup.

how to install Asus ROG Ryujin III 360 ARGB White Edition

• Prepare your case and motherboard: Ensure your case supports a 360mm radiator and clear clearance for tubing. Remove any obstructions around the motherboard area and plan cable routing to minimize clutter and maximize airflow.
• Mount the radiator: Attach the 360mm radiator to the case using the provided brackets and screws. Align the radiator so that fan airflow exits toward the case exhaust to optimize cooling efficiency. If your case supports two fans per radiator side, install both fans and connect them to the included fan hub or motherboard headers, following the color-coded connectors for PWM control.
• Install the pump/block unit: Position the CPU block over the socket, aligning mounting holes with the motherboard standoffs. Secure using the provided backplate and screws for your socket type. Apply thermal paste if not pre-applied, and ensure even contact for optimal thermal transfer. Connect the pump power to the designated CPU_PUMP header on the motherboard and the LCD display cable to the appropriate header if required by the kit.
• Connect ARGB and fan cables: Attach ARGB cables to the ARGB header on the motherboard or the included controller. Connect fans to the fan hub or motherboard fan headers, ensuring proper PWM control for speed management. Route cables behind the motherboard tray for clean cable management, using zip ties or Velcro straps to secure them.
• Power up and configure: Boot the system and enter the BIOS to confirm fan and pump RPM control. Install or update the motherboard’s cooling control software to manage the RGB lighting and telemetry display on the LCD. Customize the display to show your preferred stats, artwork, or GIFs, and set a fan curve that balances temperature and noise based on your workload.
• Test and monitor: Run stress tests to verify coolant flow and temperature response. Observe the 3.5-inch LCD for real-time telemetry and ensure ARGB lighting is synchronized with your other components. Make any adjustments to fan curves or lighting effects to achieve your desired balance of performance and aesthetics.

Frequently asked questions
