Know before you buy
This cooler features a 240mm radiator, so you will need a case that supports dual 120mm fan mounts. It is compatible with most mid-tower and full-tower cases, but you should verify your case's radiator clearance specifications before purchasing.
The cooler is designed for whisper-quiet operation, utilizing fluid dynamic bearings in the fans to minimize noise. Even when the fans ramp up to their maximum 2000 RPM, the acoustic impact remains low enough to avoid being a distraction.
Yes, the unit features integrated Gen2 ARGB lighting. You can synchronize the colors and effects across both the fans and the pump block to match your specific system aesthetic.
No, this is a closed-loop all-in-one (AIO) liquid cooler, meaning it is a sealed system that does not require refilling or maintenance. It is designed to be installed once and run reliably for the lifespan of the cooler.
The pump operates at 3800 RPM, which ensures a consistent and rapid flow of coolant through the loop. This high circulation rate is critical for effectively moving heat away from your CPU to the radiator, especially during demanding tasks.
