NZXT Kraken X40 review

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 02/11/2013 09:37 AM [ 8 comment(s) ]

NZXT recently unleashed the Kraken X40 liquid cooler, we test and review it. The Kraken X40 is a 140mm radiator based LCS unit that offers pretty solid performance numbers as you are about to find out. Combined with a cooling infrastructure provided by Asetek this all-in-one and easy to install kit can even be connected towards your PC through USB, where you can monitor and regulate the LCS unit and apply presets to make the LCS unit either silent, or high performance.

What wizardy is this? A 140mm radiator at Silent(39DBa) outperforming a 240mm radiator at Perf.(43DBa) in 1.2v and as good in 1.3v?

Are they using this guy's piss or unicorn blood as liquid?

Those closed liquid coolers are too noise for my taste.

Well, this one's not noisy, according to the dB levels.

So glad I was holding off getting an H70 or H80 Core.
This is so getting on my buy list.

Koniakki, I'm trying to make some sense out of your post, but not once did the X40 Silent pass the X60 Extreme ?

The H100i is also having a 240mm radiator, I believe.
