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 cooler uses a hydraulic bearing.

Q: Does the Kraken Elite allow for software customization?

A: Yes, you can customize the screen content with the user-friendly NZXT CAM software.

Q: how do i know if this is compatible with my system

A: the only thing you should worry about in terms of compatibility is if it fits in your case. make sure you have at least 240mm x 120mm x ~30mm of space in your case. as for your computer components, its likely to have the appropriate bracket, assuming your computer was made in the last 8 years.

Q: is the NZXT - Kraken Elite 240 compatible with a am5 motherboard confused because it only says 1700

A: Yes, it includes the AM5 mount. I would NOT recommend this AIO. Form over Function. Cool LCD Screen, Hot CPU. The bracket will have low tolerances and not fall into place easily. The directions are vague and missing steps. One set of instructions for all sizes. For the AMD install, the instructions will tell you to remove the AMD mounting bracket but the illustration is removing the CPU retainer, not bracket, so saying it difficult is an understatement. Online, heatsinks and fans are performing the same if not better under load. Price to performance is terrible.
