240 mm AIO for LGA 1700 and AM5 builds

The Kraken 240 RGB is an all-in-one liquid cooler with a 240 mm aluminium radiator and two 120 mm fluid-dynamic-bearing fans. It mounts on Intel LGA 1700, 1200 and 115X sockets as well as AMD AM5, AM4 and Threadripper platforms, though the Threadripper bracket is not included. The copper cold plate measures 74.7 mm in diameter and 55.97 mm tall.

LCD block and reinforced tubing

A 1.54 inch circular LCD on the pump head shows custom images or live system data through NZXT CAM software. The 7th-generation Asetek pump runs up to 2800 RPM while the fans operate between 500 and 1800 RPM, moving 78.86 CFM at a maximum of 33.88 dBA. Nylon-braided sleeves protect the tubing for easier handling.

Single-cable install and software control

One breakout cable connects pump, fans and RGB lighting to simplify motherboard headers. CAM software lets you set fan and pump curves, including a 0 RPM mode at low temperatures. The 275 mm radiator length and 30 mm thickness need matching case clearance, and the 4-pin PWM fan connectors require compatible headers. Builders needing a Threadripper bracket or a larger radiator must source those separately.

Questions about this item

Will the Kraken 240 RGB fit my existing Intel LGA 1200 motherboard and case?

The cooler supports Intel LGA 1200 sockets. Its radiator measures 123 x 275 x 30 mm and uses two 120 mm fans, so check your case clearance for a 240 mm radiator.

How can I verify the pump and fans are running correctly after installation?

The 1.54" LCD shows real-time system data. In NZXT CAM you can monitor the pump at 2800 RPM and fans between 500-1800 RPM, plus confirm airflow of 78.86 CFM at 33.88 dBA.

Does the box include mounting hardware for AMD AM5 and the two F120RGB Core fans?

The package contains the water block with pre-applied paste, 240 mm radiator, two 120 mm F120RGB Core fans, Intel LGA 1700/1200/115X and AMD AM5/AM4 brackets, and a single breakout cable.
