Fractal Design Radius 240 Black AIO Liquid CPU Cooler

For PC builders seeking quiet, dependable cooling in a compact mid-tower, the Fractal Design Radius 240 brings a 240 mm radiator and two Aspect 12 RGB PWM fans to tame high-end CPUs without dominating the build. Its black aluminium radiator and sleeved tubing blend into any interior, while the addressable RGB pump and fans add a soft glow that can be synced with your motherboard.

Key specifications

• All-in-one liquid cooler with 240 mm aluminium radiator
• Two Fractal Design Aspect 12 RGB PWM fans, 120 mm, 500–2000 RPM
• Fan airflow up to 56 CFM, static pressure up to 2.34 mm H2O
• Noise level 10–33.2 dB(A), PWM controlled
• Pump speed 4000 RPM, copper cold plate, pre-applied thermal paste
• Addressable RGB lighting on pump and fans
• Compatible with Intel LGA 1700/1200/115x/2011/2066 and AMD AM5/AM4/TR4
• 400 mm tubing length for flexible installation
• 5-year warranty

Why choose it

The Radius 240 balances thermal headroom and acoustic comfort. Its dense 240 mm radiator and high-static-pressure fans keep even overclocked processors in check, while the PWM curve lets you prioritise silence during light loads. The ARGB implementation is clean and motherboard-syncable, so lighting can be as subtle or vivid as you like.

Ideal use cases

• Mid-tower gaming PCs with CPUs up to 200 W TDP
• Compact workstations where a 280/360 mm radiator won't fit
• Builds that want RGB without a separate controller
• Users upgrading from air cooling who value low maintenance

Good to know

The cooler ships with mounting hardware for all listed sockets, including TR4. The pump is powered by a 3-pin header and runs at a fixed 4000 RPM, while fans connect to standard 4-pin PWM headers. ARGB devices require a compatible 3-pin 5 V header or Fractal Design's Adjust R1 controller (sold separately).
