Product Information

It's similar to the two other refreshed Z coolers, sporting a new 7th gen Asetek pump, LCD display, and Aer fans. Compared to the Kraken X series, NZXT has swapped out the RGB lights on the CPU block for an LCD display.

Overall, this is fantastic compared to the DeepCool AIO on the same system that topped out at over 45 degrees, with it never dropping below 30, even when idle.

In the case of the Kraken, that is the hub for RGB connection is built into the pump’s breakout cable - which also contains three fan header connections as well. With the Z73, the Ryzen 9 3900X runs at a mere 26C (79F) at idle, which is pretty good considering the ambient temperature was recorded at 22C (72F). Actual performance varies with AIO coolers since these products allow for almost anyone to get into water-cooling, but they omit one vital component of any custom loop — the reservoir.If the Kraken still does not detect, you may be able to check if the cable itself is the issue by connecting to an external USB port on the motherboard. The Z73 is the larger version of the Z63, sporting a 360mm long radiator (compared to 280mm) with three NZXT 120mm static pressure fans instead of just two 140mm blades. This extended surface area allows for more heat to be transferred from the radiator to the airflow within the PC case, and the extra fan adds to the volume of gas that can be pushed through. NZXT makes countless AIO liquid coolers and the Kraken Z series is the company's premium range, rocking Aer fans and an LCD display. This latest refresh makes them even better, rocking Asetek's 7th gen pumps and other notable improvements.

He has participated in a number of MMOs over the years, including World of Warcraft, RIFT, Guild Wars 2, and the Destiny series. That isn’t a criticism; the Kraken Z-3 series is one of the most beautiful CPU coolers we have seen to date. Should you have plans to kit out your PC with processors that rock ten or more cores, you'll want to have the 360mm radiator at hand for adequate heat dissipation. One way to battle this, especially with smaller 120mm radiator units, is to bump the pump and fan speeds, which can have a negative effect on noise generation. If you are using any kind of USB Expansion, Splitter, or Hub within the PC it is recommend to connect the Kraken directly to the Motherboard's internal USB 2.With everything in place, and the system powered up, the look of the Kraken Z63 RGB 280 is on full display.
