I love it. Especially paired with the NZXT software, I'm able to customize the LCD screen super easily. I can't comment much on the fans because I replaced them with other fans but they seem to be a really nice quality

"Amazing Cooler, But Had to Return Due to Corsair

"The NZXT Kraken Elite 280mm performs incredibly well with excellent cooling and a sleek LCD display. The fans are quiet, and the build quality is top-notch. I returned it only because my entire setup is Corsair-based, but if you're not tied to a specific brand, this is an excellent choice!"

Do not buy open box. QC is non existent.

Bought an open box that was marked as excellent condition. The pump had leaks, thermal paste missing, heatsink and radiator had scratches and AMD parts were missing. I am sure they just slapped an "excellent condition" sticker without even checking the insides. What a waste of time. The cooler may be a good product, but do no buy open box items from here.

No cable connector included for the cam and it really important to have one. It suppose to be a 14 pin connector but didn't get one.

ok cooler, LCD sometimes doesn't load up correctly until you restart the computer, which is mostly unacceptable because this coolers main point is the LCD screen... cooling wise its ok, nothing amazing.
