NZXT Kraken Elite 360 RGB V2 2024 Setup and wiring guide

[@kobby2g8]

Just finished installing this AIO, and two single frames and a back mounted fan! (I commented on your previous video). I also followed this one for the detailed last few steps on the AIO installation. Thanks! this was really helpful.

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Great to hear!

[@theodorecano4]

Much respect, you do an amazing job with ALL of your installation guide throughs.

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Thanks!

Too true, best voice ever, sincere.

You didn’t start with the “hellooo this is the provoked prawn”

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

I'm trying new things because I'm worried people drop off too quickly because they don't like prawns.

Happy Thanksgiving my friend. Thank you.

[@Suuri_Gurke]

Cool video, i love the new changes they did to the wiring, i wish i would have this in my normal kraken elite!

[@stefansamos4304]

I love your videos!! Keep it going mannn.

[@stefansamos4304]

Also, one quick question: I will be using Linux for this. 1) is there any software on Linux compatible with the next kraken so I can control the display? If not, can I use the pump at least with my internal motherboard header? Or will it only control speed within CAM? 2) if there is no display control within Linux, does the display work by default? What does it show when it is powered on by default? Thanks prawn love your videos btw!! ❤

Thank you for the video mate! NZXT has really nice quality and minimalist aesthetic build. However I just ordered the KRaken Elite 360 Previous version because this new version has too much of big screen to my taste and the cables are don't look that great when they are coming from the radiator, not the pump. And the previous version is already expensive enough, but this new one is soooo expensive krkr Anyway, I really like your guides and videos, much appreciated Dude! ^^ Btw, I just ordered a full nzxt build: Kraken Elite 360 (2023), F120 DUO fans (they look much better than the newer ones) and the fan controller. I like consistency

丁寧に説明して頂きありがとうございます。

[@sangarplays2994]

Hello my friend, a question Is it possible to replace the 'pack' of these 3 NZXT fans with 3 LIAN LI SL 120 fans?

[@teddycraver3552]

i did that in my build and it is definitely possible

[@sangarplays2994]

​@@teddycraver3552 Just replace the NZXT ones, right? Thanks for your help, friend.

[@Verition]

LOL what a timing i just received this cooler an hour ago

[@PeterPotensMusic]

How about that extra argb plug? Does that have to go to the motherboard or you leave it unused?

[@Jamie71q]

Hi mate @ 4:44 it looks like you actually plug it into CPU_OPT is that right or are my old eyes failing me?

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

you weren't meant to spot that. :P I only noticed the error when editing and hoped no one would spot it.

[@TexasGunzerker]

Hi. I have installed everything correctly, however my fans do not spin. I’ve tried maxing them out in CAM and BIOS. Is my 3-pin CPU_FAN connector potentially faulty? Help is much appreciated.

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

You definitely connected the sata power connection to your psu?

[@TexasGunzerker]

@ Yes

[@TexasGunzerker]

@@TheProvokedPrawn The only fix I found was to instead plug the fan core into a NZXT RGB & PWM adapter cable and connect the 4 pin PWM to CPU_fan. However I do not know how to control the fans from there. So the fans work. But they do not work when I connect them to the radiator’s 8 pin with the 3 pin PWM connected to CPU_fan.

[@christian.locke07]

is it right, that i cant use lian li infinity radiators? Becaus i cant connect the cable for the rgbs with the lian li controller?!

[@roberthenry5507]

I like the new fans but I wish they also made them like the duos. Just the ring around the fan

[@_Hailtotheking]

i made a build with this recently, i get alot of issues with gpu temp freezing and not updating, somtimes no data will be received by the cooler , works...then it doesnt .

[@ArachnidEdits_]

Is the pump loud? I dont if it is I just cant find any info on that

[@mysticqro950]

Wish you could control the RGB through motherboard control (3 pin 5v) but they did not make that as an option :(

[@frederickjabagat6765]

Hi! I like this AIO a lot, but I wonder if it will fit on DAN A3 MATX with Lian li edge and 4080 super

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

If the case takes a 360mm AIO then yes it will fit.

[@etchyo]

Prawn, I am a bit of an FPS guy. Can you let me know what the cpu usage on average is like for this? I used to have the z73 model but in 2021 the NZXT cam was a huge cpu hog. Have they fixed that bloatware at all?

[@julianbulatao9527]

I have the previous 2023 Kraken Elite. Will I have to install the new back plate or are they interchangeable?

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

I'd replace it personally

[@julianbulatao9527]

@ Many thanks!

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

@@julianbulatao9527 sorry I realise that's probably not the answer you wanted but it's better to be safe than sorry. Minor differences can have a big impact

[@julianbulatao9527]

@@TheProvokedPrawn No no you're good. I appreciate the response!

[@nesquikbottletm7335]

What if I have the nzxt controller hub? Do I plug the fans into the aio or the controller?

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Into the AIO still I'd suggest. Then it's a closed system but still controllable in cam

[@MistaJaaay]

I have seen one person fit this AIO Screen through the Vision Compact, very very tight fit. Just not sure I believe the video, what are your thoughts? I know the thermal paste would need to come off anyways just seeing if it could work.

[@bondisdead]

How did you control the RGB on the Corsair RAM? Installing iCUE is a bloated 5GB, not to mention the additional load on CPU.

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Have you considered www.signalrgb.com/devices/

[@w9dka]

Perfect timing on this video since I just ordered this AIO. Thanks a lot for going into all the details,this video and your channel in general help with catching up since my last build. One question regarding the use of custom fans on this AIO and its wiring. I want to use 3 be quiet light wings in a light base 900 fx case. NZXT breakout cable into MB USB and SATA power, fan ARG into the hub of the case. What would be the best solution for PWM? Using a 3 slot splitter and going onto CPU fan? Or do I need to get a NZXT hub and go through the breakout cable?

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

I'd go for the splitter into the CPU fan header.

[@w9dka]

@@TheProvokedPrawn Thanks a lot!

[@betahunter027]

will this new aio mount on the nzxt h6 flow case?

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

It's 360mm, which the case can take, so yes.

[@betahunter027]

@TheProvokedPrawn my concern was with the overall length, now it's above 400mm. that's what had me worried

[@alanspence291]

Just joined as a little shrimp, thank you for the inspiration for my first build. Been watching your collection, aka binging on a Prawn cocktail😊

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

thank you Alan. Greatly appreciated!

cheers mate top geeza

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

no, you!

[@artemas7076]

Do you find the amd Bracket with the screws are really close to the pump head for when you tighten to the cpu

[@josezeroninja]

I would have considered these if they had reversed bladed ones.

[@flaccus123]

Great guide. Thanks. Is the pump loud in the different modes. I've seen a few vids showing noisy pumps

Hi mate new to the channel love the content so fair keep it up btw would u mind help me with something im so confused are reverse fans in take and standard exhaust trying to build my first pc thank you please someone help cheers

[@SJkopa]

garbage cooler. There is no difference in performance compared to the previous version.😂
