Customers are saying

Customers regard the Kraken Z63 280mm as an excellent cooler, praising its superior cooling capabilities and impressive LCD screen. Many found installation straightforward, and the cooler's performance is widely considered to be excellent. However, some users noted that the fans can be noisy and that the price point is relatively high for some consumers. A few also reported some pump noise issues.

    Absolutely love it! I was debating if I should get the one with the actual screen and temps and I'm glad I did. My CPU runs at like 45 celcius at it's hottest while I run hard games like the remastered Spider-man and Elden Ring. 61 is usually the minimum and 73 celcius the warmest your CPU will typically run with any average cooler, so this just blows everything else out of the water for me.

  • X63 or Z63? Buy the Z

    Actually owned the x63 and gave it to a friend because I wanted the functionality of the gif screen feature on this thing. If your wondering between X or Z kraken, I’d recommend both but if you can’t decide I’d just buy the Z. It’s worth it. Quality is very similar if not exactly the same but you won’t regret either. For me I decided I wanted the screen, so I should’ve just bought the Z to begin with. Hope this helps

    This is the nicest looking cooler on the market. The temp is pretty accurate with Hardware Info open at the same time. I have a Ryzen 9 5900x and my idle temp is about 41c and while running Cinabench R23 All core my temps stayed between 61c-63c for 20min. You can cool your CPU with something cheaper but 100% it won't look as cool doing it.

    BEAUTIFUL; but when NZXT software was faulty when I bought it. Having a Gif would make my pc turn off, but i believe that it is fixed. Otherwise it’s all sexy n does what it needs to do. Don’t regret buying at all.

    Works well with the 13700k but NOTE default silent mode , turn on performance mode or your cpu will hit 100C immediately with cpu intensive programs (cinebench, etc. ) however with it communicating over usb for pump/fan rpm is odd , it does the job
