Fractal Design Lumen S28 RGB Aspect 14 RGB x2 AIO CPU Liquid/Water Cooler

The Fractal Design FD-W-L1-S2812 is an all-in-one liquid cooler designed to keep modern Intel and AMD processors running at comfortable temperatures while adding a clean splash of RGB lighting to your build. With a 280 mm radiator and two fans that measure 140 mm each, it moves plenty of air without drowning out your workspace, making it a practical choice for gaming rigs, creative workstations, and everyday systems that need reliable thermal control.

Installation is straightforward. The pump housing arrives with thermal paste already applied, so you can skip the messy step of spreading compound yourself. Included mounting hardware covers current Intel LGA 1700 and 1851 sockets along with AMD AM5, meaning you can reuse the cooler through future platform upgrades. A removable top lets you rotate the Fractal Design logo after the cooler is installed, so the build looks intentional no matter how the radiator sits inside the case.

Performance is anchored by a copper cold plate that pulls heat away from the CPU quickly and a pump that operates at 4000 RPM on a durable ceramic bearing. The long 400 mm rubber tubes are wrapped in braided nylon for extra protection and flexibility, giving you room to route the radiator in a front, top, or side position in most mid-tower enclosures.

Lighting is handled by six addressable RGB LEDs on the pump block and additional LEDs in each fan. If your motherboard includes a standard 5 V ARGB header, you can synchronize the colors with other components for a unified theme or choose a subtle single-color glow for a more understated build. When the fans ramp up to their 1700 RPM ceiling during heavy workloads, noise levels remain below 35.5 dBA, so streaming, recording, or simply concentrating on work stays distraction-free.

Whether you are assembling your first gaming PC, refreshing an older system for content creation, or building a showpiece rig with tempered-glass panels, the Lumen S28 RGB provides a balanced mix of hassle-free setup, dependable cooling, and tasteful lighting.
