MasterLiquid is a product line of Coolcooler's flagship water-cooled radiators. Since the launch of the second-generation Ice God 2, its product line has continued to expand. Now there is a brand-new design of the ice god G240 RGB.
It inherits the Ice God 2's dual-chamber water pump, MasterFan balanced fan, and micro water flow technology. Other emphasis is on RGB lighting and cold head appearance adjustment. The advanced section includes a new multi-color effect, multi-function controller In addition to the 240mm size of our evaluation, there are also 120mm, 360mm coverage consumer market.
The outer packaging of Ice God G240 RGB still uses the combination of a gray subject and a purple stroke. It is also the most commonly used logo color of the Cooler Master. After all, purple is also a popular element of this year's 2018, and the front is mainly to show the main body of water cooling. Just see through is the new RGB lighting effect, and this new product contains the lighting controller.

Appearance and detail display
The ice head of the ice god G240 RGB is redesigned. Unlike other ice gods, the material surrounded by the edges is a bright paint layer. The middle area is lit with a light atmosphere and will fit the fashion design more closely. The lighting area is a circle in the outer circle, which removes the text color of COOLER MASTER, leaving a sleek hexagon logo (that is, its brand Logo) and it looks mysterious and eye-catching.
In terms of details, the water-cooled head cover can be easily dismantled, and the inside of the dismantling area is a light guide layer area. This is a detail that focuses on the player's installed experience, because it can avoid the situation where Logo is not correct due to the installation of the water-cooled row to other locations. And if the player is very capable, you can use DIY 3D printing technology to customize other covers.
After dismantling the upper cover, it is seen that there are four grooves, according to the different installation direction of the cold row, the upper cover can also be installed to the right direction.
Contact surface is pure copper base, jet cold head.
Water-cooled head with 3-Pin 5V programming light interface and 3-pin water pump interface.
The Ice God G240 RGB follows the FEP braided cold pipe of the Ice God series. Compared to ordinary rubber pipes, the service life will be longer and the sealing performance will be stronger. Even if it is bent at will, it will not affect the flow of internal water coolant. This design look and feel is also better.
Ice God G240 RGB uses a 240 thin cold row, the specific size of 277x119.6x27mm, in accordance with the size of the standard belongs to the 240 mainstream program, cold row length in 280mm, thickness of 25 to 27mm or so, while a small number of manufacturers only the standard 240mm Long, this is when the player purchases, it should pay attention to the compatibility details with the chassis.
The COOLER MASTER Logo printed on the side of the water cooler row, but not with RGB lights, is a pity.
Ice God G240 RGB is equipped with two MasterFan balanced fan, this fan blade and frame can both take into account the relationship between air volume and air pressure, which is beneficial to the cooling of water cooling. It has a new light design, bearing a circle of 8 built-in WS2812B lamp beads, Including the IC chip driver is also integrated, the other equipped with a light controller is one of the highlights of this product.
Screw hole fixed shock buffer layer.
The fan also comes with 3-Pin 5V programming light interface and 4-pin fan interface.
The back of the fan bearing is marked with information. The specific model is MasterFan 120AB. The speed range covers from 650rpm to 2000rpm and DC12V/0.54A. Compared to the higher-order ice-god II, the adjustment adjustment button is omitted.
Light control box, surface material is covered with a layer of frosted processing, from top to bottom are light mode switch button, Addressable RGB and RGB control mode switch button, color adjustment button and flash frequency adjustment button.
The control box interface is very rich, first look at the right side part, from left to right are 4-pin RGB interface (fan or heat sink can be connected), the motherboard RESET and the chassis restart line interface (at the same time can achieve the chassis restart The keys change the lighting effect, fan signal and temperature detection interface (2Pin cable is connected to the motherboard), and the control box can be matched with any chassis for control. This is very user-friendly.
Light controller is 5V SATA power supply interface.
The bottom is a 3-Pin RGB programmable interface from left to right, Micro USB interface (for firmware upgrade) and 4-Pin RGB interface.
The other side is four 3-pin RGB interfaces.
Intel full fasteners accessories.
AMD's full range of fasteners is relatively simple compared to Intel.
