Kraken Elite 360 AIO liquid cooler

The NZXT Kraken Elite 360 is a 360 mm all-in-one liquid cooler built around the proprietary Turbine pump for high pressure and flow. It fits Intel LGA 1851, 1700, 1200 and 115X sockets plus AMD AM5 and AM4 platforms. A 2.72 inch IPS LCD with 640 x 640 resolution and 60 Hz refresh sits on the pump block, surrounded by an addressable RGB ring for custom visuals.

Installation notes and common issues

The cooler uses a single 8 pin connector for both PWM fan control and RGB lighting, reducing cable count inside the case. Mounting hardware for all listed Intel and AMD sockets is included in the box. The 402 mm radiator with three 120 mm fans requires a case that can accommodate a 360 mm radiator and the 37 mm block height; insufficient clearance is the most frequent fitment problem.

Cooling capacity and limits

Three fluid dynamic bearing fans spin between 500 and 2,400 RPM, each moving 75.12 CFM at up to 30 dBA, giving strong thermal headroom for modern high end CPUs. The reinforced polyester braided tubing resists kinks and leaks during long term use. Extremely heavy sustained workloads may eventually saturate the 360 mm radiator surface, especially in chassis with restricted airflow.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the pump is running after installation?

The NZXT Turbine pump should show RPM in CAM software and the 2.72-inch IPS LCD will display real-time coolant temperature once the loop is powered.

What comes in the box and what must I source separately?

The package includes the 360 mm radiator, three 120 mm RGB Core fans with fluid-dynamic bearings, pump block with mounting hardware for Intel LGA 1851, 1700, 1200, 115X and AMD AM5, AM4, plus polyester-braided tubing; thermal paste is not included.

Which version should I choose for an LGA 1700 build?

This single SKU (RL-KN36E-B2) supports Intel LGA 1700 out of the box, so no alternate version is required for that socket.
