Lian Li GA II Lite 360 Performance

crazyeyesreaper · Feb 12, 2025

Lian Li goes on the offensive against its competition with the GA II Lite 360 Performance AIO, delivering daisy-chained fans, hidden cables, stellar performance, and an outstanding warranty. It’s a near-perfect blend of everything you’d want in an all-in-one liquid cooler—and better yet, it comes at an attractive price.

Impressive that they beat their own trinity performance 360 from a few years ago. The naming scheme is pretty bad. Lite 360 Performance vs Trinity Performance 360. These fans look like another variation of the Lian Li P28 fans. The Trinity Performance came with what were essentially some P28 fans but had some slight differences. I'd have to look at the back side of the ones I have to check but they weren't the same part number. I'm impressed that their max rpm noise is lower than the P28s.

All that being said, Montech value and performance is incredible.

Seems like they have a hard time standing the test of time due to gunk :confused:

You get 420 Rads, would like to see some of them tested?

Thank you for the review

It would be interesting to get sound frequencies information instead of just the intensity, as a lot of watercooling pumps, especially AIOs, tend to generate a high frequency sound compared to regular heatsink fans which are typically in the lower frequency range. At the same intensity a high frequency sound is more disturbing than a low frequency one.

An Arctic Liquid Freezer III 420 review would be nice, as would even a 360 version review. It seems odd that one of the best value AIOs is almost completely ignored... The 420 A-RGB costs like €80...

Yeah, I wonder why Arctic LFIII 360 is not in the comparison, it's one of the most popular AIOs these days after all :confused:

Maybe the other manufacturers don't want their more expensive AIO's compared against it... Not covering the latest Artic range is very dubious to me...

Agreed, I have a Liquid Freezer II 360 that is getting past its sell by date and I'd like to see how the LF III 360 compares.

I have heard very good things about the III series. They have a faster pump and a better radiator, at least compared to the II series. But I'd love to see them compared with everyone else's offerings.

I agree! Even the 240 in TPU tests holds up really well against some of the best 360s and also beats them in fan noise rankings. I bet the ALFIII 360/420 would floor the compo.

I think that's the reason they haven't been reviewed...

How is the pump noise on Lian Li GA II lite? The ALFIII pump gets an annoying high pitch tone at around 55%+ speed (Apparently the ALFII did not experience this)
