Amazing cooler. Super easy to install, love the LCD display, and keeps my overclocked 9800X3D nice and cool. First NZXT cooler ive used in over 5 years and im very much satisfied.

Makes very little noises for how big it is and has no trouble keeping my i7 around 60°C under load. Would definitely recommend for anyone lookimg to upgrade the cooling in your rig. Was super easy to install aswell.

When I built my pc, I was told a basic fan cooler would take care of my CPU for any games I would play. Unfortunately that wasnt the case. I had heard that AIO coolers were hit and miss and gave the Kraken a shot. The temps on my cpu never go over 70°C running the most stressful games. It has surpassed my expectations ten fold and the installation was ridiculously easy. If you need a new cooler for your PC, you wont go wrong going with the Kraken!

Very sleek, clean, and subtle! I love the all black design without the dire need for everything to be lit up in the PC Case. The screen itself works fine but for some reason I just can’t get it to change its display to whatever GIFs or other screen I want to change it to as advertised on their site. Other than that, it’s a solid CPU cooler!

Great cpu cooler it keeps your temps low at all time even with high stress loads and it has a good look for it. Warning the screen doesnt cover the entire black spot its just a square in the middle of it all.

Got the Kraken to replace a Corsair H150i Elite that failed. This NZXT is keeping an i7 13700K in the high 20s/low 30s at idle and around 50 during games. That substantially better than the Corsair (when it was working right). Installation was as straightforward as it gets for a liquid cooler. No camplaints, just hope it lasts longer than the Corsair.

I'm not too tech savvy when it comes to CPU coolers, but I bought this unit to replace the stock water cooler that came with my pre-built PC, and the temps on my CPU dropped dramatically (went from upper 80s, to 50s and 60s. One thing to note is that the unit is not fully assembled outside of the box, you have to attach all the fans to the radiator (comes with all the screws and what not). Had no issues doing it myself, and the instructions were clear and concise.

Works great! Display is small but for being half the price of the NZXT Elite it does everything I need it to do - Mainly to display cpu and gpu temperatures.

Easy to mount. CAM software is a little janky at times though, the software that is used to control pump and fan speeds. Or perhaps its a windows 11 thing. I just added a GIF of Tifa Lockhardt. This is used to cool a 9950x.
When near idle (have a browser, discord and steam opened)< its around 29C liquid temps and 42-45C CPU temps. When running cinebench r23, I had 40C liquid temps and 82-91C cpu temp. I got a score of 41k on the 9950x.

The radiator is good quality and I love the LCD screen. Installation was straightforward and my temps are much cooler compared to my old 120mm m22 cooler. I do wish the price was a bit cheaper though.

This is an excellent aio cooler that keeps even the hottest cpu’s from overheating. I have a i9-14900k and it has done an amazing job over the 2 years I’ve owned it allowing me to push maximum performance.
