Lumen S28 v2 AIO liquid cooler

The Fractal Design Lumen S28 v2 is an all-in-one liquid cooler built around a 313 x 140 x 27 mm aluminum radiator and two 140 mm Aspect fans. It targets builders who want a closed-loop solution with addressable lighting that syncs through motherboard software. The copper cold plate covers modern Intel LGA and AMD AM sockets, and thermal paste is pre-applied for quicker installation.

Upgrade from stock air coolers

This unit replaces basic box coolers or single-tower air coolers when CPU thermals limit boost clocks or generate noise under load. The jump is worth it when sustained workloads push package power past what a heatsink can dissipate quietly. Articulating elbow fittings and a rotatable top cap simplify tube routing in tighter chassis, while the removable cover lets the logo sit horizontal in any orientation.

Sustained-load behaviour

The ceramic-bearing pump runs at a constant 22 dBA, and the Rifle-bearing fans span 500 to 1700 RPM for 20 to 78 CFM airflow. Under continuous load the fans ramp toward the upper range, reaching 35.5 dBA while moving more air through the radiator fins. Low-permeability rubber tubes with braided nylon sleeves resist evaporation, so cooling capacity stays stable over long sessions without the performance drop seen in shorter burst tests.

Questions about this item

What case clearance is required for the 313 x 140 x 27 mm radiator and two 140 x 140 x 25 mm fans?

The radiator measures 313 x 140 x 27 mm and each fan is 140 x 140 x 25 mm, so the mounting area needs at least 27 mm for the radiator plus 25 mm per fan; check your chassis specs for top or front clearance before buying.

How are the two Aspect 14 PWM fans connected to the motherboard, and what step do builders often miss?

Each fan uses a 4-pin PWM connector; plug both into CPU_FAN or CPU_OPT headers, then enable PWM control in BIOS so the 500-1700 RPM range responds to temperature instead of running at fixed speed.

When should the pre-applied thermal paste on the copper cold plate be replaced?

Replace the paste whenever the block is removed for cleaning, socket change, or after several years of use; clean the old compound with isopropyl alcohol and apply a fresh pea-sized dot before reinstalling.
