Noctua NL-LC1 AIO coolers launch June 16 with 240 mm, 360 mm and 420 mm models
Three radiator sizes, Asetek pump and Noctua G2 fans.
© ComputerBase Noctua has finally put a name, release date and price on its first all-in-one CPU liquid cooler series. The NL-LC1 lineup is set to launch on June 16 with 240 mm, 360 mm and 420 mm radiator options.
The series arrives one year after Noctua showed the unnamed AIO at Computex 2025 . We covered that prototype last year, when Noctua listed 420 mm, 360 mm and 240 mm versions with a planned Q1 2026 release. The final retail launch has now moved to Q2 2026.
Collab with Asetek
The NL-LC1 is based on the Asetek Emma V2 platform, also known as G8 V2. Noctua adds its own NL-PNA1 pump noise absorber, a triple-layer cover with an integrated mass damper designed to reduce pump vibration and noise.
The coolers also use Noctua’s SecuFirm2+ mounting system. Supported sockets include AMD AM4 and AM5, as well as Intel LGA1700 and LGA1851. Users moving from a recent Noctua air cooler should be able to keep the existing mounting bracket.








The 240 mm and 360 mm models use NF-A12x25 G2 fans, while the 420 mm model uses NF-A14x25 G2 fans. Noctua also offers three pump profiles: Quiet, Balanced and Manual. These cover 750 to 2,100 rpm, 750 to 2,600 rpm and 750 to 3,400 rpm respectively, with automatic intervention when coolant reaches 45°C.
Pricing starts at €219.90 for the NL-LC1-24 . The 360 mm model costs €249.90, around $291, while the 420 mm version is listed at €279.90, around $326. Noctua will also sell an optional NL-ACF1 80 mm VRM fan for €19.90, around $23.
