Thermalright FW360 Black CPU Water Cooler with IPS LCD - Quiet 360mm

In this review the Thermalright FW360 Black stands out as a serious all-in-one CPU water cooler for builders who want a balance of strong thermal performance and a customizable display. It pairs a 360mm all-black radiator and three 120mm PWM high-pressure fans with a water pump that integrates a detachable 2.4in IPS LCD screen, making it appealing to PC enthusiasts who value both cooling capacity and visual customization. The main reason to buy is the combination of effective heat removal from a 360-size loop and a crisp 320x240 IPS display built into the pump housing.

Key Features

• 360mm radiator: The all-black nano-painted aluminum fin radiator provides a large surface area for rapid heat dissipation across high-load CPUs.
• Triple 120mm PWM fans: Three TL-P12 fans run up to 2000 RPM with PWM control to push high static pressure for effective airflow through the dense fins.
• IPS LCD pump: The detachable 2.4in IPS LCD with 320x240 resolution supports static and dynamic images and system projection via the supplied software for personalization.
• Low-noise pump: The next-generation pump design improves heat absorption and reduces operating noise compared with typical AIO pumps.
• Durable tubing and fittings: Polymer protective water pipes and an SS2 all-metal buckle mounting system increase longevity and make platform changes simpler.
• Broad compatibility: Includes mounting hardware for AMD AM4/AM5 and Intel LGA115x/1200/1700/2011/2066 platforms for easy installation on most modern systems.

Who It's For

The FW360 is best for PC builders and gamers who run moderate to high CPU loads and want a 360mm AIO that combines cooling headroom with a customizable display. Enthusiasts who value quieter operation and appreciate the visual flair of an IPS screen on the pump will find it particularly attractive.

It is less suited to users with very compact cases that cannot accommodate a 360mm radiator or those who need extreme overclocking beyond typical consumer high-performance cooling. If case space is limited, smaller AIOs or high-end air coolers should be considered instead.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Strong cooling from the 360mm radiator paired with 2000 RPM PWM fans for efficient heat removal.
• Customizable IPS LCD pump that delivers clear 320x240 visuals and system projection options.
• Quiet operation thanks to an improved pump design and optimized fan blades with S-FDB bearings.
• Solid build details including polymer protective tubing and an all-metal SS2 buckle for secure mounting.

Cons

• Requires a 9-pin USB header connection for the LCD software and power, which may need careful cable routing in some builds.
• The 360mm radiator size limits use in compact or small-form-factor cases.
