NZXT Kraken Plus 240 LCD Display - Black CPU cooler

NZXT Kraken Plus 240 LCD Display - Black is a liquid cooler for processors with a 240 mm radiator, aimed at serious gaming and enthusiast configurations. It combines a compact 240 mm radiator with a pump with speeds up to 2,800 RPM and two 120 mm fans for stable airflow. It supports all current sockets – from AM4/AM5 to LGA 1200/1700/1851, so it is ready for both current and future upgrades. The model is pure black, without RGB, which is a plus if you are looking for a cleaner and less intrusive build.

What you get

With a 240 mm radiator and two included 120 x 120 x 26 mm fans, the Kraken Plus 240 provides serious heat exchange area compared to standard air coolers. The fans operate in the range of 500 – 2,000 RPM, giving you flexibility – from nearly silent idle to aggressive cooling under load. The flow rate of 73.47 CFM and maximum static pressure of 4.50 mm-H₂O are important if you will mount it in a more closed front panel or with dense filters – the air will still pass effectively through the radiator. At around 30 dBA noise, you can expect a relatively quiet profile for a 240 mm AIO, especially if you set appropriate fan curves in BIOS or software.

• Liquid cooling with a 240 mm radiator, suitable for mid- and high-end CPU configurations where air coolers are starting to struggle.
• Wide compatibility with CPU sockets AM4, AM5, LGA 1151, LGA 1200, LGA 1700, LGA 1851, so you can easily migrate between several generations of platforms.
• Two fans with a size of 120 x 120 x 26 mm and a 4-pin connector allow PWM control and fine-tuning of noise and temperature.
• Speed range of 500 – 2,000 ± 200 RPM, allowing quiet operation under light load and aggressive cooling during gaming or rendering.
• Airflow up to 73.47 CFM and maximum pressure 4.50 mm-H₂O help the air pass effectively through denser radiators and short mesh panels.
• Noise level around 30 dBA, suitable for a system where you want a balance between performance and acoustic comfort.
• Pump with speeds of 1,200 – 2,800 ± 300 RPM and power DC 12V for stable liquid circulation and reliable operation during prolonged sessions.

Who it is suitable for

This cooler is a good choice if you are building a gaming or work build with a more serious CPU and want something more capable than standard air towers. It is suitable for 1080p/1440p gaming configurations, streaming, and heavier multitasking scenarios where the processor is under load for extended periods. If you are aiming for a maximally quiet system with minimal fan management or have very limited space for only a 120 mm radiator – it may not be the best option.

The combination of a 240 mm radiator, strong 120 mm fans, and wide compatibility with modern sockets makes the NZXT Kraken Plus 240 LCD Display a solid foundation for a modern and visually clean configuration. If you want reliable liquid cooling without unnecessary light show, this model fits perfectly in that niche.
