Review: NZXT Kraken 360 Elite (UPDATE) - The NZXT Kraken Elite, takes everything you liked about the old NZXT Z series AIO coolers and makes it better. The cooler looks great, is easy to install, is very quiet, offers a minimalist aesthetic in either black or white colours and at a reasonable price with great features in a variety of sizes for all builds. I love the large matte display on this AIO. Having the ability to have a dual infographic for the temps of my CPU and GPU at a glance is awesome. This AIO requires use of NZXT’s CAM software which is either a blessing or a curse depending on your view point to me it’s lightweight and unintrusive so I have no issues with it. Via the CAM software you can also do really cool things like apply gifs to the screen customising the AIO to truly make it feel unique to your tastes and build. The AIO only needs one cable to function this time as opposed to the older Z series AIOs from NZXT which require multiple cables. Overall this AIO is my go to choice for my personal PC builds as the Kraken series has proven to me time and time again to be reliable and capable of doing its job well. Lastly if you don’t need a larger 60Hz display please buy the non-elite version of this AIO they use the same Asetek pump so your only paying for a better screen. Same goes for if you intend to use your own fans like me. I made the mistake of ordering the RGB version of this AIO when since I was using the Lian Li Uni Fans (I have since switched to Thermaltake CT120 EX Magentic fans) I should have just saved money and bought the non-RGB version. UPDATE: Given some of the let’s say less than savory tactics NZXT has been found to be doing with things like their predatory PC leasing program it might be best to start looking elsewhere in the future and customers should know about this. Won’t change the rating because the product itself is good even if the company that makes it has decided to go down a less consumer friendly avenue.
Review: Very Nice - Bought this to cool my 5800x3d that I recently upgraded to from a 3700x. Function great and is very aethetically pleasing to look at. Great customization, crisp and responsive display, and the software is lightweight. The software also doesn't conflict with my other rgb software (eg. Razer Synapse, OpenRGB, and G.Skill). I'd recommend this for any high end cpu that naturally runs hot such as the 5800x3d, 13900k, 7950x3d, etc. Overall, this is a great replacement for my AMD Wraith Prism cooler. Before my cpu temps got high enough where my computer would crash due to overheating and would idle at 80c. Now my cpu idles at 33c and I've never seen it reach above 70c even while stress testing with Furmark cpu burner and playing games with ray tracing enabled and set to max. The only thing I don't like is that for me the cooler shows up as an ejectable device like a USB stick. When you click Eject NZXT Kracken Elite it makes the software stop working. Although, the pump still functions when "ejected". I haven't seen anyone else have this problem so this might just be a me thing that I'm personally not going to bother to fix. Overall great cooler, lightweight software, very nice.
