Engineered for serious builders who demand extreme cooling, eye-catching illumination, and effortless compatibility, the Thermaltake TH420 V2 Ultra ARGB Sync All-In-One Liquid Cooler pairs a massive 420mm radiator with three 140mm fans to deliver outstanding thermal performance without sacrificing aesthetics. Whether you’re overclocking a high-end CPU, building a quiet workstation, or creating a showpiece gaming rig, this all-in-one liquid cooler is designed to keep temperatures down while letting your system glow with vibrant ARGB lighting. The TH420 V2 Ultra ARGB Sync leverages Thermaltake’s latest design language—combining a robust pump block, high-efficiency radiator, and precision-fabricated tubing—to provide reliable cooling for demanding CPUs and multi-GPU rigs alike. It’s a versatile solution for mid-tower to full-tower chassis, offering flexible mounting options, comprehensive socket support, and seamless ARGB synchronization to your motherboard or Thermaltake lighting ecosystem.
- Massive cooling capacity with a 420mm radiator — The TH420 V2 Ultra ARGB Sync utilizes a long, aluminum 420mm radiator paired with three 140mm fans to maximize surface area for heat dissipation. This design supports high-performance CPUs and overclocking scenarios, delivering consistently lower core temperatures while maintaining strong airflow through your case. The result is cleaner thermal headroom for sustained performance under load, reduced throttling, and improved stability during extended gaming sessions or heavy workloads.
- Vibrant ARGB lighting with synchronized control — Vibrant 5V addressable RGB lighting adorns both the three fans and the pump block, creating a striking visual centerpiece. The TH420 V2 Ultra ARGB Sync supports motherboard ARGB headers for seamless synchronization with your system’s lighting profile, or it can be paired with Thermaltake’s lighting controller for independent color and effects. With customizable colors, patterns, and effects, you can tailor the glow to match your build theme—from subtle, ambient glow to dynamic, pulsating illumination that responds to system activity.
- Premium build quality for long-lasting reliability — The cooler combines a copper-based heat transfer surface on the CPU block with high-quality, sleeved tubing and a robust mounting system. The pump is engineered for smooth, quiet operation, reducing vibration transfer to the case. The radiator fins are designed for high-density heat exchange, while the tubing is reinforced to minimize wear and maintain a clean, neat appearance inside your chassis. Together, these elements deliver durable performance across years of use and several possible system upgrades.
- Universal compatibility and easy installation — The TH420 V2 Ultra ARGB Sync is built to fit a broad range of Intel and AMD sockets, with a comprehensive mounting kit included for quick, tool-free installation. Whether you’re using Intel LGA sockets or AMD AM4/AM5 platforms, you’ll find installation straightforward, even in builds with limited clearance around memory or VRMs. The radiator is designed for flexible placement in cases that support 420mm radiators, and the fans can be oriented to optimize airflow for your specific chassis layout.
- Low-maintenance, solid reliability with whisper-quiet operation — As an all-in-one solution, the TH420 V2 Ultra ARGB Sync offers a sealed coolant loop designed to minimize maintenance. The pump and fans are engineered for low-noise performance, with adjustable speed profiles that balance cooling and acoustics. The system is designed to maintain stable temperatures under load, while keeping noise levels low during idle or routine tasks, allowing you to focus on your work or gameplay without distraction.

how to install Thermaltake TH420 V2 Ultra ARGB Sync All-In-One Liquid Cooler
Follow these general steps to install the TH420 V2 Ultra ARGB Sync into a compatible chassis. Always consult the included manual for model-specific instructions and safety cautions.
- Prepare your case: Power down, unplug, and remove any existing cooling components if needed. Ensure mounting locations have adequate clearance for a 420mm radiator and three 140mm fans, as well as room for cable management and ARGB connections.
- Attach the backplate and standoffs: For Intel and AMD sockets, install the appropriate backplate on the motherboard with the supplied stand-offs. This provides a secure mounting surface for the CPU block.
- Install the CPU block: Apply a thin, even layer of thermal paste if not pre-applied (many Thermaltake blocks come with pre-applied paste). Align the block with the socket and tighten the screws in a criss-cross pattern to ensure even contact and uniform pressure.
- Mount the radiator and fans: Place the 420mm radiator in the chosen orientation (top or front of the case, depending on airflow design). Attach the three 140mm fans to the radiator using the included screws, ensuring arrows indicate airflow direction. Confirm clearance with memory modules and motherboard components.
- Connect power and ARGB cables: Link the three fans to the fan headers or a fan hub, and connect the pump to the CPU_fan or dedicated PUMP header. Attach the ARGB cables to the motherboard ARGB header (5V) or to the Thermaltake controller if you’re using independent lighting control.
- Route cables for clean aesthetics: Use cable ties or velcro to secure cables along the case, keeping air paths unobstructed. Confirm all connections are secure and that no cables interfere with fans or the radiator fans’ blades.
- Power up and configure: Boot the system, enter BIOS/UEFI to set a basic fan curve and pump profile, then boot into your operating system. Use your motherboard’s software or Thermaltake’s lighting controller to customize ARGB lighting and synchronize with other components if desired.
Frequently asked questions
