The NZXT Kraken Elite 280 RGB is a liquid cooler featuring an LCD display and F-Series RGB Core fans. The Kraken Elite delivers cool performance with a display that showcases custom content. A more powerful microcontroller enables immersive customizations such as audio visualizations and the ability to convey CAM information with particle density animations. A bright 5.99 cm (2.36 inches) wide-angle LCD screen supports custom images as well as animated GIFs, offering a crystal-clear display resolution of 640x640, double that of the previous generation. The vibrant, quiet RGB Core fans of the F-Series add a lively touch to your gaming setup, thanks to the 8 individually addressable RGB LEDs on each fan. The 7th generation Asetek pump ensures optimal cooling for the Kraken Elite at 2800 RPM. Installation is simplified by a single breakout cable, leaving little room for errors during setup. The liquid tubes are protected with reinforced nylon braiding, providing extra durability and hassle-free handling.
