The Kraken Elite delivers chillingly cool performance with a display that makes custom content truly pop. The 640x640 resolution wide-angle LCD display creates a picture that's detailed and vivid regardless of your viewing angle.
- Increased customization: A more powerful microcontroller allows for more immersive customization such as audio visualizers and the ability to relay CAM information with particle density animations.
- Twice as bright: A bright 2.36" wide angle LCD screen supports custom images along with animated GIFs and features a crystal clear 640x640 display resolution, double that of previous generations.
- Stay cool: Powerfully quiet F Series Static Pressure fans provide cooling with superior heat dissipation capability. The 7th gen Asetek pump ensures your Kraken Elite cools optimally with 2800 RPM operation.
- NXT CAM ready: Personalize screen content with custom images or performance info with user-friendly NZXT CAM software. Control fan and pump speeds and run at 0 RPM mode at low temperatures to eliminate fan noise.
- Simple install: Setup is made simple with a single breakout cable that takes the guesswork out of the installation process. The liquid tubes are protected with reinforced nylon-braided sleeves for added durability and worry-free handling.

A: This comes with the Intel bracket pre installed and a AMD bracket in the box. You can change between Celsius and Fahrenheit also you are able to rotate the display to fit any configuration.
Q: Whats the difference between the 260 and the 380
A: Thanks for reaching out. We currently have krakens that are 240mm, 280mm, and 380mm's. The difference between the Kraken 280 and the Kraken 360 would be the size of the radiator and the amount of fans that come with them. The Kraken 280mm comes with 2x140 mm fans while the Kraken 360 comes with 3x120mm fans. They are both fantastic coolers that can support most if not all major cpu's on the market. The 360mm Kraken, though, would be our top-performing cooler.
