The NZXT Kraken Elite 360 (model RL-KN36E-B2) is a premium all-in-one liquid CPU cooler designed to deliver exceptional thermal performance, aesthetic customization, and user-friendly installation. Its standout features cater to both high-performance computing needs and visual personalization.
NZXT Turbine Pump: High-Performance, Low-Noise Cooling
At the core of the Kraken Elite 360 is NZXT’s custom-designed Turbine Pump, engineered for a high flow rate and substantial head pressure. Operating between 1,200 and 2,800 RPM, it ensures efficient and quiet CPU cooling, even under heavy workloads and overclocking scenarios.
2.72" IPS LCD Display: Personalization and Monitoring
The cooler features a 2.72-inch IPS LCD with a 640 x 640 resolution and 60 Hz refresh rate, offering vivid visuals and wide viewing angles. Users can customize the display with images, animated GIFs, or use it to monitor real-time system performance metrics.
RGB Ring: Dynamic Lighting Customization
Surrounding the LCD is an RGB ring that allows for dynamic lighting effects. Users can synchronize the lighting with on-screen content or other RGB devices, enhancing the visual appeal of their PC build.
High-Performance Fans: Efficient and Quiet Operation
The Kraken Elite 360 includes three 120mm Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) fans, each delivering airflow up to 73.47 CFM and operating between 500 to 2,000 RPM. These fans provide strong airflow with a noise level of up to 30 dBA and feature Zero RPM Mode for silent operation during low loads.
Broad Compatibility and Easy Installation
Designed for a wide range of processors, the cooler supports Intel sockets LGA 1851, 1700, 1200, and 115X, as well as AMD sockets AM5 and AM4. Installation is streamlined with pre-applied thermal paste, a single breakout cable, and tool-free mounting brackets.
Durable Tubing and Radiator Construction
The cooler features extended 420mm rubber tubing with PET braided sleeves, ensuring durability and long-term leak protection. Its 360mm aluminum radiator (401 x 120 x 27 mm) efficiently dissipates heat, maintaining optimal CPU temperatures.
NZXT CAM Software: Comprehensive Control
Through the NZXT CAM software, users can personalize screen content, control fan and pump speeds, and synchronize RGB lighting effects. The software also enables Zero RPM Mode, allowing fans to stop spinning during low temperatures for silent operation.
With a 6-year warranty and a blend of performance, customization, and ease of use, the NZXT Kraken Elite 360 stands out as a top-tier cooling solution for enthusiasts and professionals alike.
