NZXT Kraken Elite 280mm WH RGB 2024 Cooler

The Kraken Elite raises the bar for liquid cooling by combining cutting-edge performance with next-level customization. Powered by the custom-designed NZXT Turbine pump, it delivers up to 10% more cooling efficiency than its predecessor, keeping modern CPUs cool and stable under heavy workloads.

At its core is a brilliant 2.72-inch IPS LCD display with 640×640 resolution, 60 Hz refresh rate, and vivid 16.7 million colors, framed by a dynamic RGB ring. This customizable screen allows you to monitor system stats, display GIFs and images, or integrate with apps like Spotify and YouTube. The RGB ring can be synced with on-screen content or your wider lighting ecosystem for a cohesive look.

Designed with simplicity in mind, the Kraken Elite includes pre-applied thermal paste, tool-free mounting for Intel® and AMD® sockets, and a single breakout cable for reduced clutter. Extended PET-braided tubing ensures durability and long-term leak protection, while the split-flow copper cold plate maximizes heat dissipation across the CPU’s hottest areas.

With powerful RGB Core fans, streamlined installation, and a six-year warranty, the Kraken Elite delivers both style and substance — making it the centerpiece of any build.
