A 240 mm AIO liquid cooler with a 2.72-inch IPS LCD and two 120 mm fans reaching 2400 RPM for CPU cooling
Size 2 Fan Slots (120mm)
Color White
The NZXT Kraken Elite 240 is an all-in-one liquid cooler that pairs a 240 mm radiator with a 2.72-inch IPS LCD on the pump block. It mounts to Intel LGA 1851, 1700, 1200 and 115X sockets as well as AMD AM5 and AM4 platforms. The white finish and ARGB lighting suit builders who want a coordinated look.
The cooler fits standard 120 mm fan mounts and includes two fans that run from 500 to 2,400 RPM with fluid dynamic bearings. Builders whose cases cannot accommodate a 282 mm radiator or who prefer air cooling should consider other options. The integrated LCD requires NZXT CAM software for custom content.
The proprietary NZXT Turbine pump delivers a 10 % improvement in CPU cooling over the previous 2023 model according to Intel Open Bench testing. This figure is the primary indicator of whether the thermal performance meets your needs.

Other versions of this model

The radiator measures 282 mm long and uses two 120 mm fan slots; check your case clearance for that length.
