Customer Ratings & Reviews

The NZXT Kraken Elite RGB 360mm is a standout in both performance and aesthetics. Its display, encircled by a customizable RGB LED ring, not only adds a sleek look to my setup but also provides real-time system stats, enhancing both form and function .​ Cooling performance is exceptional. The fans and the Pump ensure my CPU remains at optimal temperatures, even during intensive tasks. The fluid dynamic bearings contribute to a quieter operation, making for a more pleasant computing experience.​ Installation was straightforward, and the NZXT CAM software offers intuitive controls for RGB customization and performance monitoring. The absence of wires protruding from the pump head gives it a clean, uncluttered appearance. If you're seeking a liquid cooler that combines top-notch performance with eye-catching design, the NZXT Kraken Elite RGB 360mm is an excellent choice

This cooler not only looks amazing with its customizable RGB lighting, but it also keeps my CPU temps impressively low even during long gaming or editing sessions. Installation was straightforward, and the display adds a nice touch for monitoring temps. The fans are quiet, and the build quality feels solid.

Upgraded from the previous model of this AIO. It looks much better than the last one, and performs a bit better in terms of noise and cooling. There are a lot of improvements over the previous model like the hidden cables, larger cold plate and the RGB ring around the display.

Looks great, ive had evey iteration of every kraken elite made. This by far looks the best. It is a very large pump. The rgb circle around the screen is a nice addition and the screen almost looks like an OLED. Even how the intel and AMD brakcets snap on the back of the pump is very innovative. However, why in the you know what would they make the cable that connects to the motherboard and fan header on the front of the radiator. Should have it in the back hidden. Another gripe is the inanse price of $330 after tax. You could get a used ps5 for that price. The value is not there and with that flaw it is a little disappointing. However, it looks awesome and its the best lcd screen you can get on an AIO.

Thought my old 240mm NZXT AIO was getting old and not cooling my R7 5800X enough so I bought this as an investment towards my current and future PC build. I can't believe it, I went from 58°C no load - 65/76°C with load to 46°C no load to 53/59°C with load. Not only does this beautiful specimen lower my old temps by 10°C consistently, but I can also use the 60hrtz LCD to play a funny GIF of a cat on a treadmill so I can pretend the cat is powering my PC. Oh yeah the RGB is neat too but I just like the LCD. Make sure your case has optimal room for it before buying (images with measurements attached to this review), it only could fit in the top of my HYTE Y60. If you do buy this cooler you won't regret it, think of it as an investment for your rig. It has a manufacturer warranty and supports AM4, AM5 and Intel. Only problem I had was NZXT Cam not immediately seeing it because I had the USB header plugged into a splitter and not directly on the Mobo like I have it now.

Looks great and keeps my i9-11900k a lot cooler! My old cooler was running at 80-90c at idle. I changed the thermal paste and put this cooler on it and it now runs at a full load at around 60c plus it looks amazing and is customizable from the colors, to the fan speed, to the screen image!

a lot of reviews say this is overpriced but i honestly disagree. For the amount of customization options this AIO offers, along with the performance, its priced pretty fair. I upgraded from a thermaltake aio and the difference between the two is astounding. I did have issues initially with my cpu running hot, and had to just let the pump work out some air bubbles for a few hours (if you experience the same give it some time and you should see improved temps). My old aio had crappy software and super basic customization options. Whereas this one can display your three main temps (liquid, gpu, and cpu), you can change the text outline AND fill color, you can set individual rgb for each LED light on the ring around the aio. Temp-wise my old aio had my cpu sitting around 65° under no load, and in games with higher demand it was sitting around 72°. With the kraken elite my temps are about 10° cooler in both scenarios. Overall really glad i switched.

Really easy install. Lcd display looks really good and the cooling works really well

I love my white NZXT Kraken Elite RGB 360mm cooler. I can put really cool GIFs on the screen or pictures of my loved ones, and the colors are fully changeable, which is awesome. The RGB looks insane, and the price wasn’t too bad either.

I bought this cooler to go with a new PC build I was putting together. It was expensive, but it is well-made and has easy directions to follow. The NZXT software works well to set the colors. Fun to play with the CPU display settings with animated GIFs and colors. Happy with the purchase.

Works great! Looks Great! Fits Great! Aesthetic is glorious!

This is a neat CPU cooler. Coming from the old x73 it is quite the upgrade. The pump runs completely silent, there are NO MORE WIRES coming off the top of the pump. NZXT finally figured out it’s allot cleaner looking when they hide the wires insides the braiding on the water lines which is what they did here. This leaves you with a single bulkhead cable from the radiator to power the whole system. I haven’t got to mess with it to much yet atleast the display portion but it does look beautiful. They have come a long way from the old pump with the fixed NZXT logo on it and the RGB ring around it.

It's fantastic, an amazing screen and does a great job.

Amazing Look and Sounds Great Pretty big compared to the older one.

I am very happy with this device. I went ahead and built a video editing machine with an I 9. 14900k Processor. I have the computer set to performance mode and this liquid cool device. Is keeping my processor at a steady 40 to 45 degree Celsius. It's working very well.

Best AIO cooler.Maintain good temperature and the screen is so awesome.

Easy to install. Thermal paste is setup perfect. The app is user friendly. It has a gif search in the app i was able to find theburntpeanut gifs dragonball z and tons of others. The color options are great. I combined it with a nzxt case and was able to change all the fan colors in the app.

Great fans. Connecting them is clean and clear. However, you need the hub from NZXT to get the rgb working correctly. Otherwise they stay rainbow spectrum. Performance is quiet and great, once the fans reach 100% it sounds like a very faint sounded lawnmower.

Great product especially for high end cpus I have a ryzen 7 9800x3d and keeps it 45 degrees when playing games

Sick AIO. Customization is endless with great image quality
