ASUS LC ARGB AIO Coolers Launch for $63, Supporting Intel Socket V

ASUS has expanded its liquid cooling lineup with the new ASUS LC ARGB series, giving builders a budget-friendly option for modern CPU platforms. This launch matters because the coolers support the latest Intel Socket V and AMD AM5 sockets, ensuring compatibility with recent processor upgrades without requiring expensive aftermarket replacements. The entry-level pricing also lowers the barrier for custom PC builders who want reliable AIO cooling without breaking the bank.

ASUS LC ARGB series adds budget AIO cooling with customizable mirror design

The series includes two models: the 240mm ASUS LC 240 ARGB and the 360mm ASUS LC 360 ARGB. Both units feature a copper base with pre-applied thermal paste and a standard 27mm thick aluminum radiator. The fans are 25mm thick ARGB PWM units designed for integrated lighting control and airflow. A key visual feature is the tool-less customizable mirror on the water block, which allows users to personalize the look of their build.

Specifications

• Pump Speed: 3000 RPM
• Radiator Thickness: 27mm
• Fan Thickness: 25mm
• Fan Type: ARGB PWM
• Base Material: Copper with pre-applied thermal paste

Under the hood, the coolers utilize a pump capable of reaching 3000 RPM. The manufacturer states this pump uses a long-life motor to maintain consistent cooling performance over time. The 240mm model is priced at 1,990 TWD (around $63.05) in Taiwan. The larger 360mm variant costs 2,390 TWD (around $75.72). Both models come with a five-year warranty from ASUS.

These coolers are compatible with Intel Socket V (FCLGA1851 and FCLGA1700) and AMD Socket AM5 and AM4 platforms. This broad socket support means the LC ARGB series can serve as a drop-in upgrade for both new builds and existing systems using previous-generation AMD CPUs. We touched on ASUS PRIME LC II 360 ARGB in our earlier Asus coverage, but the LC ARGB series offers a more streamlined, mirror-focused design at a lower price point. The units are now available on the ASUS Taiwan official website.
