ROG Strix LC II 360 ARGB vs LC III 360 ARGB LCD

[xxwrekk]

I recently saw an advert saying that there is a new AIO from the Strix series after the LC II, i.e. the LC III.
I looked through the specifications of both products and I wonder what is the point of releasing a practically unchanged product in terms of performance? https://rog.asus.com/pl/compareresult?productline=cooling&partno=90RC00W1-M0UAY0,90RC00F1-M0UAY4 

Maybe someone can outline some bigger differences for me, but apart from the LCD screen and "0db technology" - I don't see any changes there that would make me, as a ROG fan, go to the store and buy their latest product. I own the ROG Strix LC II 360 ARGB version and I see absolutely no point in exchanging it for the gen III - looking at both specifications.
