This week Fractal Design are introducing a brand new cooler series intended for high performance and overclocked CPUs: the Celsuis series. Adding a twist to the now commonplace closed loop liquid cooler design, the Celsius series is kitted out with new quality of life features and can also serve as a bridge to bespoke water cooling in the fullness of time.
The Celsuis series is comprised of two basic variants: the Celsuis S24, and Celsuis S36. As you might expect these models differ primarily in the radiator size - slim 240mm and 360mm form factors respectively - and are equipped with either two or three Fractal Design Dynamic X2 PWM fans. Otherwise their capabilities are broadly similar; both include an integrated PWM controller allowing for automated or direct pump and fan speed control, sound isolation and dampening components, and standardised fittings for later loop expandability.
Key Features
- The Celsius series uses a combination of cutting edge technology and premium sound dampening materials to deliver extreme cooling performance with minimum noise output.
- An intelligent temperature-controlled auto mode adjusts fan and pump speeds in real-time for optimum balance of cooling performance and silence, while PWM mode enables precision manual tuning for any usage situation.
- Included Fractal Design Dynamic X2 PWM fans offer a wide speed adjustment range from 500 to 2000 RPM allowing for near silent operation under lighter loads and maximum airflow during heavy usage.
- An integrated fan hub with concealed cable routing simplifies cable management for a clean installation.
- Radiator fittings use standard G 1/4" thread for maximum compatibility and expandability with standard do-it-yourself components. Easily add and integrate a GPU block of your choice to eliminate noisy graphics card fans so the only sound you hear is the sound of your game.

The Celsuis series supports all the modern Intel and AMD sockets including AM4, LGA 2011v3 and LGA 1150. Retail units are covered under a 5-year warranty, however if a user chooses to expand the loop only individual components are covered rather than the product as a whole.
