Over three years after releasing the Z-series of water coolers, one of the first with an integrated display, NZXT now introduces a successor. The advantage from the unique selling proposition of that time no longer exists today, but the addition of “elite” raises great expectations. You can find out whether it can live up to them in the following article:
Here is the review from back then, if you want to make some comparisons yourself. However, I will go into some details myself.

Packing and scope of delivery
A large product picture adorns the front of the almost unchanged carton, the tabular explanations on the back as well as texts on the side inform in advance about the contents.
Inside the oblong packaging, we once again find a tray made of stiff cardboard and all sorts of individual parts packed in plastic bags. So, unfortunately, nothing has moved on this front yet, if you wrap the radiator in a cover of thick paper again anyway, surely you could have left out the redundant bag?
The included accessories include the various mounting material for the supported sockets and proprietary connection cable for the pump block.
Assembly and installation
With the AM4 socket, the existing backplate of the motherboard is reused, but the two plastic parts on the front have to be removed. Then, four spacers are screwed into the backplate from the front with the corresponding double-sided screws.
Here, according to the manufacturer, it is important to observe the orientation of the spacer. Depending on whether you use AM4 or AM5, the small part has to be rotated.
Specifications
The following is an overview of the Kraken Elite’s technical details. As usual, more information can be found on the manufacturer’s product page.
