NZXT Kraken Z63 280mm liquid cooler RL-KRZ63-01

Customisable LCD display

The NZXT Kraken Z63 RL-KRZ63-01 is a 280mm all-in-one liquid cooler built around a 2.36-inch LCD screen that shows 24-bit colour images, animated GIFs or CAM system data. A copper cold plate transfers heat to an aluminium radiator measuring 315.00 x 143.00 x 30.00 mm, while two 140 mm fluid-dynamic-bearing fans push between 27.27 and 98.17 CFM at 500 to 1,800 RPM. The pump block measures 79.00 x 79.00 x 52.00 mm and can be rotated to keep the logo upright regardless of mounting orientation. Tubes are 400 mm long and wrapped in a nylon-braided sleeve.

Enthusiasts who want visual customisation

This cooler suits builders who value a programmable display and quiet operation between 21 and 38 dBA across Intel LGA 1150, 1151, 1155, 1156, 1200, 1366, 1700, 2011, 2011-3 and 2066 plus AMD AM4 and Threadripper TR4 platforms. It is not for buyers who need a Threadripper sTRX4 bracket in the box, anyone who prefers air cooling to avoid liquid maintenance, or systems that cannot accommodate a 315 mm long radiator with dual 140 mm fan slots.

Verify radiator clearance

Check that your case can fit a 315.00 mm radiator with 30.00 mm thickness and two 140 mm fans measuring 140.00 x 140.00 x 26.00 mm. Confirm the motherboard has a 4-pin PWM header for the pump and enough fan headers for both 140 mm units. Ensure the chosen Intel or AMD socket from the supported list matches your CPU, and note that a separate Threadripper bracket is required for sTRX4 or TR4 installations.
