GIGABYTE Launches AORUS ELITE 360 and 240 Liquid Coolers with LCD Screen and Dual Lighting
GIGABYTE has introduced its new AORUS ELITE all-in-one liquid cooler series. The main model is the AORUS ELITE 360, which comes with a dual-chamber pump and a built-in color LCD screen on the CPU block. The lineup also includes the smaller AORUS ELITE 240, designed for compact PC cases that cannot fit a 360 mm radiator. Both models are available in black and white.
The built-in display, called LCD Edge View, can show up to 11 different system statistics in real time. It can display CPU, GPU, and memory information, with up to four system readings shown at the same time. Users can also display custom images, GIFs, or videos, making the screen a customizable part of the PC build.
The AORUS ELITE 360 includes 87 LEDs split into two separate lighting zones. One zone controls the fan, while the other lights up the outer frame. Both lighting areas can be customized separately through GIGABYTE Control Center, with several dynamic lighting effects available.

The cooler uses a dual-chamber pump that keeps hot and cold liquid separated, helping remove heat from the CPU more quickly and steadily. It also comes with 120 mm seven-blade fans that are designed to improve airflow and static pressure while keeping noise low. The fans use FDB bearings for longer life and keep noise levels below 40 dBA.
The radiator is made from high-density aluminum with separate cooling channels to improve liquid flow. The copper cold plate includes micro-fins that increase the contact area, helping transfer heat more efficiently.
The cooling system also uses a unified fan frame to reduce vibration and improve cooling performance. The mounting system supports Intel 1851/1700 and AMD AM5/AM4 sockets, making it compatible with different platforms. Thermal paste comes pre-applied from the factory to make installation easier, and GIGABYTE has reduced the number of required cables from nine to three with an integrated cable design.
The AORUS ELITE series is now available in both 360 mm and 240 mm versions, with black and white color options.
