Customisable LCD Display

The 2.36 inch wide-angle LCD runs at 640x640 resolution and supports custom images, animated GIFs and CAM data visualisations. A more powerful microcontroller drives audio visualisers and particle density animations. The copper cold plate measures 81.9 mm in diameter and 59.5 mm in height.

Builders Who Want Integrated Monitoring

This cooler suits users who want a single breakout cable for simpler installation and software control of pump speeds up to 2800 RPM and fan speeds between 500 and 1800 RPM. Buyers who need Threadripper sTR4 or sTRX4 mounting must source a separate bracket as it is not included. Systems with limited radiator clearance should verify the 121 x 394 x 27 mm dimensions before purchase.

360 mm Radiator With Three F120RGB Core Fans

The aluminium radiator spans 394 mm in length and uses three 120 mm fluid dynamic bearing fans rated at 78.86 CFM airflow and 33.88 dBA noise. Each fan carries eight addressable RGB LEDs and connects via 4-pin PWM. The white finish extends across the block, radiator and fan frames for a consistent look.

Questions about this item

What clearance does the 394 mm long radiator with 27 mm thickness need for a top or front mount?

The radiator is 394 mm long, 121 mm wide and 27 mm thick; each 120 mm fan adds 26 mm so a top or front mount requires space for the combined stack.

Which cable routing step is most often missed when connecting the single breakout cable to the motherboard?

The single breakout cable carries pump, fan and LCD signals; the step people miss is plugging the USB header into the motherboard so NZXT CAM can control the 640x640 display and 2800 RPM pump.

When should the fluid dynamic bearing fans running at 500-1800 RPM be checked or replaced?

Fans rated at 33.88 dBA and 78.86 CFM should be inspected for dust every 6-12 months; replace them if bearing noise rises or airflow drops below usable levels.
