Manufacturer description

Moving to an Intel LGA1700 motherboard doesn't have to mean replacing your ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II. The ARCTIC Intel LGA1700 Upgrade Kit lets you keep using the liquid cooler you already own with a new Intel processor. Why you need it: Intel's LGA1700 socket changes two things. It uses different mounting hole spacing on the motherboard, and it changes the mounting height for CPU coolers. Mounting hardware made for older sockets doesn't account for either change. ARCTIC designed this kit for its Liquid Freezer II series to handle both, so your cooler can sit properly on the new socket. Who…

SpecPicks Verdict

SpecPicks scored ARCTIC Intel LGA1700 Upgrade Kit using a rating × review-volume × price-fit model applied to published specs and reviews across the cooling & fans category. ARCTIC's cooling & fans lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here.

Common buyer scenarios for cooling & fans of this kind: matching it to an existing build, replacing a failing part, or upgrading from a previous-generation equivalent. Check the spec table below against your current setup — particularly socket / form-factor / power-rating fields — and confirm compatibility on the retailer's listing before purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this kit work with my ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II?

Yes. ARCTIC lists compatibility with the Liquid Freezer II series. Check your cooler's model name to confirm it belongs to that series before you order.

Why can't I use my old mounting hardware on an LGA1700 board?

Intel's LGA1700 socket changes the mounting hole spacing on the motherboard and the mounting height for CPU coolers. This kit is designed to handle both changes for the Liquid Freezer II.

Does this kit fit other ARCTIC coolers or other brands' AIOs?

ARCTIC lists compatibility only with the Liquid Freezer II series. Don't count on it fitting other ARCTIC models or coolers from other brands.

Can I use this kit on an AMD motherboard?

No. It's an Intel LGA1700 upgrade kit, and the listing names no AMD socket support. AMD mounting needs hardware made for that platform.

What comes in the box, and is there a warranty?

The product listing doesn't itemize the contents or state warranty terms. Check ARCTIC's product page or the current listing for the parts list and warranty details.
