Kraken Elite 360 RGB V2 – 360mm AIO liquid cooler w/ Display and RGB Core Fan – Single Frame (Black) – RL-KR36E-B2

About NZXT Kraken Elite 360 Black RGB V2 Liquid Cooler

At its core, the NZXT Kraken Elite 360 Black RGB V2 Liquid Cooler features a 360 mm aluminum radiator that provides ample surface area for efficient heat dissipation.

This larger radiator size is ideal for high-TDP processors, helping maintain controlled CPU temperatures during intense workloads, overclocking sessions, or extended gaming marathons.

Paired with this radiator are three high-performance 120 mm RGB Core fans engineered to deliver substantial airflow and static pressure, ensuring continuous movement of air through the fin stack for optimal thermal efficiency.

One of the standout aspects of the NZXT Kraken Elite Series Liquid Cooler is the 2.72-inch IPS LCD display integrated into the pump head.

This high-resolution screen (640 × 640 pixels with a 60 Hz refresh rate) can show real-time system performance metrics like CPU temperature and fan speeds, or even custom images and animations — giving users the ability to personalize their system’s look beyond traditional RGB lighting.

The vibrant colour depth and software adjustability make the NZXT Kraken Elite 360 Black RGB V2 Liquid Cooler not just a cooling solution, but a visual centerpiece in builds with a viewable side panel.

Thermal management is driven by the NZXT Turbine Pump, capable of running up to 2,800 RPM.

This pump is designed to circulate coolant efficiently through the loop, ensuring that heat collected from the CPU cold plate is swiftly moved to the radiator.

The copper cold plate itself aids rapid thermal transfer from the CPU surface, further improving cooling performance.

Whether you’re pushing the latest multi-core processors or optimizing for quieter daily use, the NZXT Kraken Elite 360 Black RGB V2 Liquid Cooler remains responsive and capable under varying thermal demands.

Installation and compatibility are simplified for a wide range of modern systems.

The NZXT Kraken Elite LCD & RGB Liquid Cooler supports the latest Intel sockets (LGA 1851, 1700, 1200, 115X) and AMD platforms (AM5, AM4), accommodating most current-generation CPUs without the need for extra brackets.

At the same time, the braided CIIR rubber tubing spanning 360 mm gives builders flexibility when routing lines within the case and helps protect against wear and tear over the long term.

The NZXT 360mm AIO RGB Liquid Cooler are equipped with fluid dynamic bearings, which enhance longevity and help reduce operational noise even at higher speeds.

With a typical noise level around 30 dBA at full tilt, the cooling solution strikes a balance between performance and quiet operation — a key consideration for both gaming and creative work environments.

RGB lighting on both the pump head and fans adds further aesthetic appeal.

Controlled via NZXT’s software suite, lighting effects can be synchronized with other RGB components in the system, creating coordinated themes across your build.

This integration helps transform routine cooling hardware into a dynamic visual element that complements your overall aesthetic vision.

The NZXT Kraken Elite 360 Black RGB V2 Liquid Cooler is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a high-performance cooling solution that doesn’t compromise on looks.

Its combination of a large radiator, vibrant IPS display, strong fan performance, and broad compatibility makes it a standout contender in the 360 mm AIO segment.

Whether building a flagship gaming PC or a powerful workstation, this cooler delivers both substance and style.
