Description of Water Cooling System for NZXT Kraken X73 CPU, Black/RGB

The NZXT Kraken X73 cooling system is a high-performance cooling system designed to work with Intel and AMD processors of the vast majority of currently common sockets. The high efficiency of the device is mainly achieved due to the numerous fans (there are 3 of them). The material of the water block is copper. The radiator, which measures 394x121x27 mm, is manufactured using high quality aluminium. The fans are based on quiet and durable hydrodynamic bearings. The speed range is wide - from 500 to 2000 rpm.

Im amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

With its pros: - Cools well - Build quality and materials - Illuminated logo and pump - Easy to install - Reliability (according to reviews) and 2 years warranty - There is a software for tuning speed and backlight. Has cons: - Price - Fan noise under load (predictable) - The operation of the pump is audible under load - We need a spacious building for 3 sections.

An ideal product for any type of consumer.

I decided to change the processor cooling when I found out that the airy Dark Rock Pro 4, although it perfectly cools the processor, fries the back of the motherboard (as it turned out - with air from the video card, which it throws into the case). This system is easy to assemble and install. Here with the connection of the wires had to tinker a bit. As a result - quite neatly fit into the interior space. The radiator is fixed to the ceiling. All hot air, including from the video card, is now…

Pros
  • Efficiency. Easy to install (but not connect). Complete silence at low load. Fan adapter included.
Cons
  • A bunch of wires for the pump, and it's not clear what most of them are responsible for. The manual is short and doesn't explain it. One of the wires requires as much as a free USB 2.0 connector on the motherboard. Price.

Think carefully before buying this product.

For that kind of money, I assumed that I would get an effective quiet one, but alas, the fans are simply buzzing, it is unbearably loud even at speeds below 1000, compared to the biquite 240, this is just a specific hum. I had to buy new fans and get another 7k. In general, I do not advise buying this one for such a price, there are other analogues much cheaper.

A nice option for the money, one of the best deals.

i7-1700K - at a peak at a frequency of 5.2 GHz, it heats up to 78 C. The be quiet dark rock 4 tower produced similar results, BUT it ate up much more space in the case and complicated the maintenance process. Has pros: "Cannon! Race! Rocket!" (ce) In general, an excellent solution out of the box for "hot" processors. When the "tower" does not fit in the case or interferes with the installation of RAM. Fasteners are all included, assembly can be mastered even by a PC user, because. instructions…
