Solid Buy
Love the display and it does a pretty good job at cooling fast, do be warned that it might not be compatible with most cases I had to go out and buy a bigger case and even then I had to front mount it, however it is very nice and it comes with pre applied thermal paste

Keeps a 16-core reasonably cool.
Great cpu aio cooler. I have a 16-core AMD Ryzen 9 5950x and it’s able to keep it reasonably cool. I’d say NZXT probably has some of the most reliable AIOs compared to other brands. It also has a software controlled LCD display that you can put any GIF on.

Kraken flow
Top notch AiO. keeps my i7 12700k nice and cool under load. Top mount exhaust set up on a H6 flow case. Slide towards front of case so there’s room for CPU power connectors and such. the other RGB items are from amazon. Syrlyr extension cords. then a cheap GPU anti sag bracket. and yes you can get it to work with Nzxt cam software
