alike. The Kraken X40 and Kraken X60 are high end, all-in-one 140mm and 280mm liquid-cooling solutions
where ease of use meets unmatched performance.
Applying its forward-thinking design philosophy to the water-cooling market, NZXT raises the bar with a userfriendly

the Kraken brings high performance cooling with an uncompromised look that any enthusiast will be dying to
show off.
At its core, the Kraken features a state-of-the-art pump attached to an all copper base that is compatible with
all of the current offerings from Intel and AMD. Included with the 140mm Kraken X40 is one NZXT FX-140
PWM fan, with the ability to install an additional 140mm fan for a push-pull configuration, offering unmatched
cooling performance.
The 280mm Kraken X60 features two NZXT FX-140 PWM fans, with the ability to install an additional two fans

year warranty. With the Kraken, NZXT set out to unleash the best closed loop water cooler on the market, and
believes its customers should not settle for anything less.
