NZXT Kraken X63 RGB, schwarz

The Kraken X63 RGB is introduced at the $179 marker with a similar price in EURO. And that is a lot of money for a two fan LCS, but the Kraken series remains to be one of the best performing products, and also offers silent operation (if configured properly). Go with an RPM range of 200 to 700 RPM and you'll have sheer silent operation combined with excellent cooling. This new refresh is of course all about the new aRGB fans, RGB controlled by CAM, routed through the pump. We like it. We think the fan bridging for RGB was clever and saves wires. it remains to be a lot of them though, that has to be said, but is inherent towards anything bling with RGB. You can create an ecosystem that is extremely silent as NZXT offers a lot of cooling capacity with this kit. You can configure the pump speed in CAM, so that's nice. Silent mode is fine, in performance mode, you will hear a bit of crackling noises coming from the pump. As a kit, this AIO LCS definitely is one of the better-performing ones out there if that's what you are after. Aside from all wires, the product is properly user-friendly to install and you'll have proper (additional) capacity left for a nice overclock. Again, there is a fair amount of wires leading out and into the cooling block. So design-wise there is cable spaghetti and clutter to deal with cable routing wise. Overall the final words can be short, we can still wholeheartedly recommend the NZXT Kraken X63 and X63 RGB offering proper cooling combined with great looks and flexibility. It's getting expensive though, that has to be said.

NZXT has expanded upon its existing range of X-Series all-in-one coolers with a trio of new additions that incorporate RGB fans. The reviewed Kraken X63 RGB picks up where its predecessors left off, with top-end performance facilitated by a seventh-generation Asetek pump and 280mm aluminium radiator. A pair of Aer RGB 2 140mm fans do a good job of accentuating the cooler's visual appeal, which continues to catch the eye courtesy of the mirror ring LED incorporated into the CPU block.
