High capacity radiator, easy expandability, quality components throughout
Large, pricey, short warranty
The EK-XLC Predator 240 appears to have the capacity to cool many components in addition to a high-end CPU. Wwithout adding any of those components, its extra capacity and cost appear wasted. We recommend this unit only to the same type of buyer who migh...
The results speak for themselves - the Predator 240 is awesomely good at cooling Intel CPUs and can be fine-tuned to offer fantastic cooling at whisper-quiet noise levels too. Many new AIO liquid coolers have the ability to reduce pump noise, such as Cors...
ly low noise levels Noise levels 12V Recommendation / Price The EK Predator 240 is an excellent preassembled, expandable allinone watercooler Is rather unsurprising that such a highend watercooler comes with a steep price of 19995 Euro excl VAT Neverthe...

Excellent cooling performance, Low noise levels, Can be expanded by adding a GPU block, Very tidy installation, Superb build quality, Comes assembled with fans installed
Price is double a regular All In One, Alternate mounting screws required for some LGA2011 motherboards, The thickness of the radiator and fan package may cause mounting problems in some cases, Only one spare fan header when two would be better, No support
You might be surprised by the news that EKWB has entered the All In One liquid cooling market with the Predator 240 and Predator 360 systems. After all, EKWB (Edvard Konig Water Blocks) is a specialist liquid cooling company that sells components for cust...

Outstanding thermal performance, Very quiet operation, Rocksolid build quality, Ability to customize/expand, Minor weaknesses, Very large size could present an issue in some cases, Price relative to selfcontained cooler market, Added degree of difficulty
The Predator 240 is only compatible with Intel processors, and there's actually a little work to do before it can be installed on your motherboard.
The EK-XLC Predator 240 is built like a tank, offers very quiet operation, and cools really, really well. The drawbacks are higher than average cost for a closed-loop cooler at $199.95, a more involved (and intimidating) installation due to the LGA socket...

According to EKWB, they wanted the EK-XLC Predator 240 to be a design focused on the "enthusiast level AIO cooler" segment, made of high performance components that would mimic the performance of a custom liquid cooling system. While we cannot claim that...
You would have to have this beast in your hands to understand that EKWB weren't kidding when they talked about “quality parts” and “no compromises made.” They weren't kidding. This is one premium water cooling system. Talk on the web emphasizes the qual...

In the introduction we wondered whether the EK Predator 240 would represent something where the whole was greater than the sum of its parts. The reason for this is that the "parts" in this case are all taken from EKs extensive inventory. The radiator, for...
Second To None Build Quality, Excellent Top Of The Line Cooling Efficiency, Expandable / Future proof (Can Add Extra Radiators, GPU waterblocks, CPU waterblocks, Pumps), Powerful Laing DDC Pump (180 l/h?), SATA Power Connector, ,
No Control Software, Slightly Loud At Full Speed, Intel Only,
The EK-XLC Predator 240 by EK Waterblocks is actually not the first “hybrid” to reach our lab since prior to that we had the opportunity to check the Eisberg 240 by Alphacool. However unlike the Eisberg 240 not only does the EK-XLC Predator 240...
