Worth it
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The LCD is large enough and can be customized through the NZXT software. The fans included in this box are not loud at max speed. My cpu (Ryzen 7 9800X3D) stayed cool, around 35degrees Celcius at idle. The LCD screen is large, so do keep that in mind while doing build with this.

BB doesn't check open boxes apparently
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I knew open box purchases were risky business, but I had seen that Best Buy's "Open Box Excellent" status was for products that were unblemished and included all components. This was not the case. Most importantly, the wiring for the cooler was missing, it was completely inoperable. there was also a streak across the braided cable sleeve, which may have been just thermal paste, and there were impressions on the copper plate from a cpu. I do not know if all of the screws and such were included, I didn't get that far before realizing this was useless to me. Do not trust Best Buy to verify that everything that should be in an open box is there

AIO
|Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quick to install, LCD screen looks great, and it comes with the AMD and Intel brackets. There is a rattling noise inside the pump caused by air bubbles which can be fixed by putting the pump at 100% until it’s gone.

Expensive but poorly built.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I should have listened to the other reviews. A few main points regarding this CPU cooler, ill start off with objectively true things regardless of opinion. 1. The tube sleeving is cheap, frays apart, and looks “baggy.” 2. The LED isn’t properly diffused so you can easily see the LEDs on the pump block. 3. If don’t have CAM running, the LCD screen is irrelevant 4. Very expensive. For being $315 after tax, this is very disappointing. On the flip side, if you are already running everything NZXT, and want good performance, this does well. Kept my 9800x3d at 67 degrees C at max load. If you want this for aesthetics or performance, you are better off looking at alternatives. Maybe NZXT can improve the general build quality of this in the future.

Good AIO
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Despite the bad press that NZXT is getting right now, they still make great AIO coolers. Yes, they do come at a premium because of the screens and the obligatory inclusion of fans, but this cooler knocks it out of the park. I just recently upgraded to a 9800x3D and decided to pair it with this cooler. So far, the temperature has not gone above 65C even under load, and idles between 38C and 42C. I would definitely recommend to anyone who can afford it.

Best Kracken AIO yet!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's incredibly quiet, making it perfect for gaming or just chilling out and streaming different media. Installation was very straight forward and easy to understand from the included instructions. It keeps my CPU low 30 degrees Celius idle with an Intel 13900k. The built-in LCD screen is beautiful. It can display up to 3 different info readings at once. I have mine set to display CPU clock speeds, CPU temp and CPU load. Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase and would 100% recommend this AOI for anyone who is looking to upgrade or just build a new PC.

poor quality product never buy NZXT again
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was excited when this elite 360 RGB model lunched, but when I installed it, it lack the QA and looks very cheap, the LED ring diffuser showing every single LED and the screen is LCD not OLED, it clearly shows the black backlight, and finally the tube looks very cheap not like previous models, it is the time to say goodbye to NZXT

Move on if you have the previous model
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The screen is an improvement from the previous model, but they cut back costs on the AIO tubing. Really bad quality with kinks and horrid sleeving on the tubes. For being a NZXT buyer for over a decade, this is a disappointment of a product.
