MSI MAG CORELIQUID 240R V2 Liquid Cooler (Black)

The MSI MAG CORELIQUID 240R V2 is a liquid CPU cooling system that combines a 240 mm aluminum radiator, an integrated pump, and two 120 mm fans that feature addressable RGB lighting. It arrives pre-filled and sealed, so builders can drop it into a new or existing rig without the complexity of a custom loop.

By housing the pump inside the radiator, MSI keeps the pump away from the socket’s heat source. This design choice not only lowers the pump’s operating temperature but also helps extend its lifespan. A three-phase motor running at 4200 rpm cuts down on vibration, which in turn keeps noise to a minimum and prevents unwanted wear over time.

The included fans spin anywhere between 500 and 2000 rpm under PWM control. When workload is light, the cooler can register a whisper-quiet 14.3 dBA, yet it can still push up to 78.73 CFM of airflow when your CPU needs full cooling power. The split-flow layout inside the radiator improves heat dissipation efficiency, giving overclockers and power users more thermal headroom.

Mounting is straightforward. The blockhead can rotate 270 degrees, so you can keep the MSI logo upright no matter how you route the tubes. Out of the box, the kit supports a wide range of Intel sockets, including LGA 115x, 1200, 1700, 2011, and 2066, as well as AMD AM5, AM4, AM3+, AM2+, and FM2+ platforms. Whether you build a compact gaming tower or a workstation that churns through heavy renders, this cooler fits naturally into most mid to high-end cases that accept a 240 mm radiator.

Gamers who chase stable frame rates, streamers who need a silent background, and content creators who push multi-core processors to their limit will all appreciate the balance of low noise and strong cooling that the MAG CORELIQUID 240R V2 delivers. Its RGB lighting ties neatly into popular motherboard control software, allowing you to match the cooler’s look with the rest of your build.
