CPU water cooling Darkflash DE240 (black) — 240mm radiator, AIO liquid cooler

DE240 CPU water cooler (black)

Explore DE240 is a water cooler that is designed for high performance and striking appearance. The 2.88-inch magnetic IPS screen used displays system data in real time, and the ability to detach it and attach it to any metal surface of the case gives you a lot of freedom in interior design. The kit is equipped with two 120-millimeter PWM fans with ARGB illumination, which provide solid cooling even for powerful processors with TDPs of up to 315 watts.

IPS screen with monitoring function

Integrated into the water block, the 2.88-inch (480×480 px) IPS screen allows you to keep track of CPU temperature, fan speed, hours or modes in real time. Thanks to its magnetic mounting, it can be detached and mounted elsewhere - for example, on the front of the case. The displayed information is customized by proprietary software that supports themes, inter-device synchronization and AR visualizations.

Efficient cooling with a copper base

The water block is made of precision-cut copper plate, which allows for very good contact with the processor and fast heat transfer. The high-density heatsink has low resistance to liquid flow and increased heat transfer surface area. The whole kit operates with a full fan speed range from 800 to 2000 RPM.

PWM ARGB fans

The kit uses two 120mm hydro-bearing (HDB) fans that provide high air pressure (up to 2.16 mmH₂O) and robust flow (up to 55.22 CFM), with a maximum noise of just 36 dBA. PWM support allows automatic speed adjustment according to CPU temperature. ARGB is compatible with the latest backlighting systems (ASUS Aura, MSI Mystic Light, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome).

Compatibility and easy installation

Explore DE240 is compatible with a wide range of processors: Intel LGA 115x / 1200 / 1700 / 1851 and AMD AM3 / AM4 / AM5. Installation is facilitated by pre-installed fans, a set of brackets and thermal paste. The whole thing is completed with nylon braided cables and 3-pin ARGB and 4-pin PWM connectors.

How to use

Install the Darkflash DE240 according to your motherboard and case mounting points for a 240mm radiator. Secure the radiator with appropriate screws to a supported mounting position (for example top or front) and attach supplied or compatible fans to the radiator according to airflow preference. Mount the integrated pump-block onto the CPU socket using the brackets and thermal interface provided, following your motherboard socket compatibility instructions. Connect pump and fan power cables to the motherboard headers or a fan controller to enable RPM control and monitoring. Ensure case airflow is oriented to move heat away from the radiator and that tubing is routed without sharp bends.

Recommendations

Confirm that your PC case supports a 240mm radiator before purchasing. Use the motherboard BIOS or compatible fan control software to configure pump and fan curves for balanced cooling and noise. Periodically inspect external fittings and fan performance; as a sealed AIO, regular coolant maintenance is not required, but general system cleanliness (dust removal from radiator fins and fans) will preserve thermal efficiency.
