NZXT KRAKEN PLUS 280 Black
The NZXT Kraken Plus 280 liquid cooler maintains stable operating temperatures for processors on Intel 1851, 1700 and AMD AM5 sockets, even under high load. Heat from the processor is dissipated by a copper base with an optimised split liquid flow, which is then cooled by an aluminium radiator. A specially designed NZXT Turbine pump circulates the liquid. This AIO cooler with an LCD screen is managed entirely through the NZXT CAM software, which controls the pump and fan speeds while also personalising the integrated display.
Key features of the NZXT Kraken Plus 280 liquid cooler
- LCD screen displays system data or custom graphics
- Powerful NZXT Turbine pump runs at up to 2800 RPM
- Two F140P fans create high static pressure to push air through the radiator
- Zero RPM fan mode maintains quiet operation under low load
- The system is ready for modern Intel 1851 and AMD AM5 sockets
- A single cable from the pump simplifies cable management in the PC case
- NZXT CAM software manages all cooling and display settings
Customisable LCD display
The integrated LCD screen displays key system information. Using the NZXT CAM software, you can set it to project your own images and animated GIFs or integrate data from web services like Spotify. The display clearly visualises component temperatures or personalises the look of your entire build.
Pump and fans of the liquid cooler
The core of the cooling performance is the NZXT Turbine pump, which operates between 1200 and 2800 RPM, pushing coolant at a high flow rate with low operating noise. Airflow through the radiator is handled by two high-static-pressure fans, whose speed is automatically regulated from 500 to 1700 RPM. Under low processor load, Zero RPM mode is activated, and the fans stop completely.
Easy installation of the liquid cooler
Installation is made easier by the pre-applied thermal paste on the copper base. Only one breakout cable from the pump runs to the motherboard, simplifying cable management inside the case. The system supports Intel 1150, 1151, 1155, 1156, 1200, 1700, 1851 and AMD AM5 and AM4 sockets. The nylon-braided tubes are long enough for flexible radiator placement.
