With a custom-designed pump and improved visuals on its LCD screen, the new Kraken Elite is enhanced in every way, making it better than ever.

NZXT proudly introduces the new Kraken Elite, a significant advancement of NZXT’s renowned all-in-one liquid coolers. With a remarkable up to 10% boost in CPU cooling performance compared to its predecessor, the custom-designed NZXT Turbine pump enhances coolant flow rate and head pressure, setting a new standard in cooling technology.

“We exclusively developed the custom NZXT Turbine pump with CoolIT because we saw the need to push liquid cooling performance further,” says Johnny Hou, founder and CEO of NZXT. “Our combined years of expertise in creating high-performance AIOs enabled us to develop the new Kraken Elite, designed to meet the increasing cooling demands for PC gamers. We look forward to continuing our partnership with CoolIT to further enhance the Kraken’s performance and set new industry standards.”

The Kraken Elite boasts an enhanced IPS LCD display, 30% larger than the previous generation, and is now equipped with a new RGB LED ring, providing builders with extensive customization options. Through the use of NZXT CAM, users can personalize their Kraken Elite to showcase GIFs, monitor system temperatures, and seamlessly integrate with popular services such as YouTube, Spotify, and Google Photos. Additionally, the new RGB auto-sync setting within NZXT CAM enables the RGB LED ring to synchronize and dynamically alter colors based on the displayed image or GIF, offering unparalleled customization possibilities. With simplified installation via the single breakout cable from the radiator hub, connections are streamlined, ensuring a sleek appearance throughout the build. The RGB version features NZXT’s award-winning Single Frame RGB Core fans, facilitating easier, faster, and cleaner installation. Furthermore, mounting brackets for the most popular CPU sockets, including Intel® LGA 1851/1700, 1200/115X, and AMD® AM5, AM4, are included with the new Kraken Elite to guarantee compatibility during the building process. This makes the new Kraken Elite an indispensable tool for creating a unified setup that perfectly encapsulates each user’s distinct style.
