NZXT Kraken X62 280mm AIO RushKit

[NeverBackDown]

I just don't like the fact that this AIO has obscenely long tubing. No idea how ITX users would deal with that much cabling.

I like the look of this and will be interested to hear performance/noise details when they're released.

I think the lighting is a nice novelty and something a bit new for the market and the fans look pretty high end compared to the budget ones that come with the corsair

That's a sticking point and a catch 22 tbh. They make them too long people complain. They make a cooler like the H55 which had woefully short hoses and people complain.

Not quite sure how an ITX user would cram a 280mm rad into their PC though? it's kinda big. I used to have a 280mm H110 and it was massive.

No it's not. This is just way way to long.
The 240 version would struggle to fit in itx because of the cable length.
Even the 140 would struggle with such long cables

I need a 240mm in my life, that block is just the sex.

So the hoses on them all are the same length?

Judging by the pictures on there website, yes they all are

Oh. Didn't know that. Ah well, I suppose there are better solutions for wedgie PCs then.

I like it too. But I have way too much gear here already.

 

[Greenback]

Can't say I'm overly impressed with having to sign up to get fully functioning software, that puts me off wanting 1

 

[Kushiro]

Its not exactly that bad given that you would want to have an account with them for support in the first place. That said, I can see where you are coming from though.

 

[realneil]

I wonder if you can run the pump without the lighting effects?
I like the look of the mirror finish when it's not on.

 

[Kushiro]

Shoild be able to. If I remember correctly, you could do so with the x61

 

[Doomslayer]

As i have said in the other thread this is a pass cause it's an Asetek :lol:

 

[Kushiro]

Same thread FYI

 

[Doomslayer]

IMO Asetek make some of the ugliest AIO i have even seen there so over hyped by people there are better options.

They make 90% of the AIO's on the planet though :/

I like this one... The USB cable should have been lower or a right angle one but apart from that this is pretty damn good IMHO

That's fine if you like it.

I just don't like Asetek AIO, I just think there are better options.

I'm shock that people have forgotten what happen :lol:

 

[Dawelio]

Is it just me or doesn't the tubes look quite long?... Tom, how long are they in comparison to the H100i for example, you reckon? If you'd top mount the radiator inside a case.
