Product details

The NZXT Kraken X42 is a modern all-in-one liquid cooler that comes with several improvements compared to its direct predecessor, the X41. In addition to a new design for the fans, pump, and radiator, the X42 features higher static pressure, lower noise levels, and reinforced tubing for increased durability. The pump itself is equipped with a small infinity mirror and offers various lighting options that can be adjusted directly from the desktop using the advanced CAM software, in addition to the pump settings. NZXT's confidence in the exceptionally high quality of its products is reflected in the very long manufacturer's warranty of six years for an all-in-one liquid cooler.

1x 15Pin SATA power connector.
