OPEN BOX - NZXT Kraken X62 280mm - RL-KRX62-02 - AIO RGB CPU Liquid Cooler - CAM-Powered - Infinity Mirror Design - Performance Engineered Pump - Reinforced Extended Tubing - Aer P140mm Radiator Fan (2 Included),Black Kraken X62 280mm X62 280mm

Bought the thing early 2021 and now come end of 2023 i got the death rattle. The evaporation from the tubes was too much and there isnt enough water in the lines to keep my pc cool. required to order a new cpu cooler due to the lack of performance... Works great if it doesnt break tho

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900x I purchased the NZXT Kraken as my first big upgrade to the cooling power of my PC. This was two years ago and I’m happy to say that it still works incredibly. Not a sign of overheating or leaking, ever. I have a Ryzen 9 which means I need serious cooling while it cooks in games. The NZXT Kraken not only looks great, but the water cooling always keeps my temps below 70-80c while gaming. Idle, the Kraken keeps my CPU at around 34-40c and works amazing for me. The noise levels are also something to mention; *silence*. I highly recommend this cooler to everyone (and for powerful CPUs)

Funciona muy bien y es elegante.

I upgraded from a x63 to the x73 as I recently got a bigger case (h710i). I mounted the radiator and fans on top of my case to exhaust the air out. I used the mounting bracket which came with my case to install the radiator and fans. The mounting bracket was put in between the radiator and fans and then I put the screws in to hold everything in place. You can also screw the fans directly onto the radiator if you want. Then you just need to mount the fans into your case. I would suggest at this stage to connect the IN & OUT daisy chain cables. I made the mistake of installing into my case first then found it too hard to connect the cables so had to take eveyting back out to connect the cables. You have to connect the IN cable to your first fan and then the OUT into second and so forth. The first fan needs to be connected directly to your controller unless you already have RGB fans then it's just a case of daist chaining them all together. I have an intel CPU so I didn't need to change the bracket on the pump. If you have AMD all you need to do is swap it for the correct bracket. Before you mount the pump you need to connect the correct backplate to the back of your motherboard. Then you mount the pump to the CPU and motherboard. The pump comes with thermal paste pre applied however I used my own. Next step is to connect the fans to your motherboard. In my case I have the nzxt controller so I just connected the fans to the splitters connected to the controller. The other option is to connect the cable supplied to the motherboard and then connect the fans to the fan splitters. If you do this then I don't think you can control the RGB lights as they need to go through the controller. Final step is to connect the cables from the pump. The breakaway cable has 3 ends. One is connected to my PUMP header on my motherboard, the other to a spare SATA cable coming from my PSU and the other is just left hanging as I had to use for it. The second cable connected to the pump is the usb one which is also connected to a spare USB header on you motherboard. Once everything was connected I turned pc on to make sure everyting was working then installed the CAM software. The software is intuitive and easy to use. The fan led can by addressed individually however I just went with one colour. There is also RGB lighting on the pump which can also be changed. The temps on idle are between 30-33 degrees. Whilst gaming it's nornally 40-50 degrees however on certain CPU demanding games it does go higher. Stress testing on Aida 64 the temps were between 65-70 degrees. Temps will vary depending on what CPU you have so my results will likely be different to yours. Overall very happy with this product, easy to install, decent temps and RGB fans give the case a nice look. Highly recommended

Easy to Install, manages to keep CPU around 60-65 in heavy loads, I tried games continually for 1 Hr and the Temp was around 60-65.The positioning plays a key role here. I installed it in the front of my cabinet to allow cool air to flow through the radiator. i have a top Fan which sucks air and one more back fan that pushes air out which works for me. The RAMs now get hotter as the CPU fan no longer blows air into them :) so pl put a top fan to blow air on your RAMs (I have 8 GB * 4 so they really get hot. the fan is silent and the LED effects are cool. if you are a very heavy user this wont be enough as the temperatures get as high as 69 some times, then you should go for a duel or 3 fan radiator.
