The NZXT Kraken 280 RGB is an all-in-one liquid cooling solution designed for high-performance desktop systems. It utilizes a 280mm aluminum radiator paired with two 140mm RGB fans that feature fluid dynamic bearings for reduced operational noise and increased longevity. The system is engineered to manage the thermal output of modern CPUs under sustained workloads, providing a balance between cooling capacity and acoustics. Its Asetek-powered pump operates on a variable speed range from 800 to 2800 RPM, allowing for precise control over coolant circulation based on thermal load.
A primary feature of this cooler is the 1.54-inch square LCD screen integrated into the pump housing, which can display real-time system metrics or custom images at a 240x240 resolution. Users can manage performance profiles, fan curves, and RGB lighting effects through the NZXT CAM software interface. The 400mm ultra-low evaporation rubber tubing, protected by a nylon braided sleeve, offers durability and flexible routing options within a PC case. Broad socket support is provided for current Intel and AMD platforms, including LGA 1700 and AM5.
