The NZXT Kraken X63 AIO liquid CPU cooler is a small all-in-one cooling solution that has a high performance. It is a 280mm cooler which is suitable for small spaces and it keeps your CPU cool. It is very effective in terms of liquid cooling with an almost silent Aer P radiator fan on it. The Kraken X63 also includes built in RGB lighting among other features.It fits into most of the AMD and Intel sockets, therefore you can install it without any problem. It is important to note, however, that the included fan lacks RGB lights and although generally silent, may not remain so when overclocked.For anyone looking to create a compact build that does not make noise and has some flashy RGB, then NZXT’s Kraken X63 is a pretty good option.

Owned for a few years. Temps are great and the pump is pretty much silent. Temps dont go above 70° on a i9-10850k.

This does the job extremely well. Though it is my first AIO, I can say with confidence that this is worth the purchase.Pros:- Low noise to rpm ratio (Max was like 60-80db)- Stays cool (It's summertime my guy)- And will adjust itself accordingly using the CAM software.Cons:- A bit annoying to install if it's your first time doing so and depending on how your layout is and the size of your case, blah blah blah.. ya know.- Either I'm just retarded or the water tubes are just a tad bit too short for any good way to manage your cables and so forth.Is it worth it?Yes. I have a i7 9700K with a 2070 super right under it in a closed up case. I can play VR and such and tune my specs to get the best out of it and still only crank 34-36 min and a max of anywhere between 50 to 58. And since I have a cold CPU, I have a cold GPU. They practically are at the same temps with one another in most games. Did I mention RGB?

All four of these factors contribute to this amazing product, albeit 160$ is a bit expensive for someone like me who has been using air coolers. However, if you have a powerful CPU that takes a lot of TDP, like the i7 10700k (which is the CPU I have with this X63 AIO) you'll probably have enough money to buy it. I initially had a Noctua Air Cooler (NH-DL9) which overheated my computer causing it to thermal throttle (peak temps were 100C!!!) With a powerful CPU such as the new generation i9s and the 10th gen i7, you need an AIO preferably. With this, the X63 Kraken is the perfect choice. A 160$ AIO compared to a 100$ air cooler that depends on the temperature of your room and case temperature, the extra 60$ to 100% keep your CPU cool and prevent it from crashing your system and possibly damaging your parts is an obvious choice. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the AIO also comes with the aesthetically pleasing infinity loop design, perfect for whatever RGB build you want. It keeps quiet even on the "Performance" option in the NZXT Cam Software and keeps my temps at 30-40C idle in my hot room--almost summer in California :( (55-65C while playing Modern Warfare and Black Desert Online on max quality--both extremely CPU reliant games.) All in all, this product for 160$ is a steal if you want to keep your powerful CPU under cool temps.
