  • Perfect for cooling a 9950x in a small case
Size: 240mm Radiator Style: Non-RGB
I’m running a Ryzen 9 9950X, and the Kraken 240 Elite RGB has been performing way better than I expected for a 240mm AIO. My CPU idles around 39°C and maxes out at just 54°C during gaming and normal workloads. For a chip this powerful, those numbers are insanely good, especially on a compact radiator. (Using a slight undervolt) The pump is quiet, the RGB looks clean without being overdone, and the LCD display is sharp and actually useful for monitoring temps. Installation was easy, and NZXT CAM recognized everything immediately. If you want strong thermals, quiet operation, and premium aesthetics in a 240mm cooler, this one absolutely delivers. ... show more

  • Top-Tier Cooling with a Stunning Display — Quiet, Powerful, and Premium
Size: 420mm Radiator Style: RGB
The media could not be loaded. The NZXT Kraken Elite 420 RGB (2025) is hands down one of the best AIO coolers I’ve ever used. Cooling Performance: The 420mm radiator delivers outstanding thermal performance. Even under sustained heavy loads, CPU temperatures stay comfortably low with plenty of headroom. It’s ideal for high-end processors and long gaming or productivity sessions. Noise Levels: Despite the massive cooling capacity, this AIO stays impressively quiet. Fans ramp smoothly without sudden spikes, and at idle or light loads it’s barely audible. Excellent balance between performance and acoustics. Display & RGB: The LCD display is gorgeous — sharp, bright, and highly customizable. System stats, GIFs, or clean minimal visuals all look fantastic. The RGB fans are vibrant and evenly diffused, adding polish without being over-the-top. Build Quality & Installation: Everything feels premium: solid tubing, clean cable management, and a well-finished radiator. Installation was straightforward for a 420mm unit, and NZXT’s mounting hardware is well thought out. Software Experience: NZXT CAM has been stable and intuitive. Fan curves, pump settings, and display customization are easy to dial in, making it simple to set and forget. Bottom Line: If your case supports a 420mm radiator and you want top-tier cooling with a premium look, this AIO is worth it. Excellent thermals, quiet operation, and one of the best LCD implementations available. Highly recommended. ... show more

  • Amazing Performance and Easy Install
Size: 280mm Radiator Style: RGB
I’m using the 280mm NZXT Kraken AIO with an Intel i7-12700K on a MSI Z790 Tomahawk Max motherboard, and this cooler has been outstanding. The installation was a breeze—everything lined up perfectly, the hardware felt solid, and the whole process was quick and stress-free. Cooling performance is excellent. Even with the 12700K, which can run hot under load, my temps stay low and stable. The pump and fans run quietly, and the overall build quality feels premium. The lighting and screen adds a clean, modern touch without being too flashy. I absolutely love this cooler. Easy install, great temps, quiet operation—highly recommended for anyone running a similar setup or upgrading their system. ... show more

  • Massive cooling capacity!
Size: 420mm Radiator Style: RGB
The cooling capacity of this thing is insane! Keeps my 7950x3d nice and cool under all work loads. The screen is a nice touch as it can display all relevant temps so you can keep track of them with a glance. I love it! Just be warned this thing is massive. But why do a 360mm rad when you can do a 420mm? Overkill? Totally. But so worth it just for the cool factor! ... show more

  • 6th AIO from NZXT and failed within 4 months.
Size: 360mm Radiator Style: RGB
Well this will be the last NZXT product I'll ever purchase. After using their older models and having to send them back via RMA several times. These coolers do not last long, I do not know what I was thinking to purchase this one. I have done countless research over the years on what I may be doing wrong to cause issues with these aio's. After owning six different aio's and watching countless videos for these particular models for installation, reading the manual thoroughly just to result in my aio's on multiple machines to end up failing within a year. This one was significantly quicker than my previous aio's. I bought this in late June of this year and it ended up dying 4 months later. At first I thought maybe my bios update the week prior caused some kind of issue with the timings on my cpu and voltage were causing it to overheat rapidly . Because who would think a brand new aio would crap out so quickly? Keeping an account of temperature values when using this aio from when I first installed it. The temperatures were not bad, they read around 34-35c in the bios. Buying a cheap $30 fan cooler after this sudden failure to rule out the aio as the culprit proved to me despite this being a $300+ aio cooler, the cheap 30 dollar fan cooler outperformed it. Installing the cheap cpu cooler lead to the bios reading 29-31c on average. Now not a huge difference. But for a high end am5 platform, you would think liquid would be more effective at keeping things cool. NOPE! My test from when I first had the AIO through 3dmark's CPU thread test had a much lower score than my 30 dollar air cooler with the same stock settings for the bios. WHAT???? The CPU was throttling less and getting better scores. Sometimes expensive doesn't necessarily mean better. I'll save up for a better fan cooler, but this 30 dollar air cooler is doing much better than this hole in the wallet. ... show more

  • Love it all, except the power cable...
Size: 360mm Radiator Style: RGB
Really good at keeping CPU cool, pretty quiet too especially compared to air cooling. The screen is great, super high quality. My only complaint is the power cord, honestly it sucks, fragile connection points and not flexible at all, really hard to make it look nice when mounting on the top of the case. For the steep price point I'd like the cable to be higher quality, especially because it's pretty much bespoke. ... show more

  • Great cooler with a clear display
Size: 280mm Radiator Style: RGB
Was super easy to install for my first aio cooler. The screen is big and looks very clear. The customization is nice but the software feels a little dated. So far temps are in the expected range with the aio cooler. I recommend
