Retailing right at $130 (£100), the Captain 240 Pro comes in slightly higher in price than much of the competition, but the keen-eyed buyer who sees the value in Deepcool's 240mm liquid cooler knows precisely what they want in this gem of a...

The Captain 240 Pro is heralded as the new standard, given the inclusion of the patented anti-leak system. Only time will tell if it can live up to that claim, but the science behind it is solid, and given our limited testing we have no reason to doubt...

There really is a lot to appreciate with the Deepcool Captain 240 PRO, especially when compared to the slightly older Captain 240 EX. In terms of appearance, the PRO does feature the same CPU block aesthetic, but with the addition of the RGB LED ring...

The Captian 240PRO is a product series that I like. It's a good performing kit, and for the money, you get quite a bit of it. First off, it's simply a cool looking product with the tubing bypass on the colling block (which really is a working bypass...

With solid cooling performance, reasonably quiet pump and fans, and snazzy RGB lighting, the Deepcool Gamer Storm Captain 240 Pro ticks most of our boxes, but even so its price - in the UK at least - is a little eye-watering. £150 will bag you a custom...

Captain 240 Pro's biggest claim to fame is an automatic pressure relieving radiator that promises to never leak. Testing those claims isn't easy - we have not had a single AIO leak yet - and only time will determine whether or not this innovation has...

PriceAt the time of writing, we do not have an exact price for the Deelcool Captain 240 Pro Gamer Storm. We would, however, expect it to retail for around £80-£100. This price is based on similar models we have seen in the ‘Captain' and ‘Castle'...
