Know before you buy
Yes, the MasterLiquid ML240R is compatible with a wide range of CPU sockets, including the Intel LGA 1700, making it suitable for most modern builds.
You can still use the full lighting features of this cooler. It includes a dedicated wired controller that allows you to manage the RGB effects without needing a compatible motherboard header.
The fans are designed for quiet performance, operating between 6 and 30 dBa. At lower speeds, they are virtually silent, and even at maximum RPM, the noise remains well-controlled.
The 240mm radiator is a standard size that fits most modern mid-tower cases. However, you should check your case specifications to ensure there is enough clearance for a 277mm long radiator and the 25mm thick fans.
The dual-chamber pump separates the incoming cool liquid from the heated liquid returning from the radiator. This design improves heat transfer efficiency and helps extend the overall lifespan of the pump.
Yes, the radiator uses standard 120mm fan mounts. You can swap them for other 120mm fans if you prefer different aesthetics or performance characteristics, provided they use a standard 4-pin PWM connector.
