This is made up of the pump, central hub, and display, which brings about the fans and connections. These are for routing via an internal USB header found on the motherboard. For its tube, it measures 400mm long. The material used for it is an ultra-low rubber consisting of nylon braided sleeves. Cap In the Control Panel, select “View devices and printers” or if you are in Icon view, “Devices and Printers”. Not only that, but the Kraken Z53 is similar to the refreshed and updated coolers. It also sports the latest 8th Gen Asetek pump, AER fans, and LCD. But what makes it better than the rest? Cable length posed no issues for me in a mid-tower case. In all of its products, NZXT has proven conscious of cable length and making it right for all systems.

RGB and Fan Controllers, including those integrated with NZXT motherboards, will be listed as “NZXT USB Device” or "NZXT RGB Controller" for newer controllers, while Kraken coolers will show up with the names such as “Asetek USB Device”, “NZXT Kraken Device”, “NZXT KrakenZ Device”, or “NZXT KrakenX Device”. Overall, it was able to do its job well without giving us any problems even under loads or while gaming. We had a great experience using the NZXT Kraken Z53 and didn’t see any issues while testing it. It was silent during our entire test, and that was incredible. We didn’t experience any issues while using the Kraken Z53, which was impressive. It delivered superior cooling performance, and it didn’t show signs of being unable to handle the heat. Now, let’s focus on the actual performance of the Kraken Z53 and see just how good it’s claimed to be. Setup is as simple as you would expect from a liquid cooler from NZXT. Mounting the pump by gradually tightening each of the screws makes for a secure fit with thermal paste applied across the entire chip. An experienced builder will have this mounted in a minute or two, and a newbie shouldn’t be too far behind!Now, the software centralised all these functions into a user-friendly utility for both beginners and advanced users. Like other fans from the Z series, the Kraken Z53 comes with AER P radiator fans. These are made for providing excellent liquid cooling performance. The application allows every other CAM-enabled device to change whenever a game is booted. Or it can change at specific times in a day. Those in the NZXT ecosystem will likely already have CAM installed. The Z53 launches alongside a new CAM update that adds the “Profile Sync” beta feature. This lets any CAM-enabled devices change when a game is booted up or at a certain time of day. For example, users can set a gif of Captain Price to appear when Call of Duty: Warzone is booted, with all RGB lighting shifting to a cool blue. Fan speed could also be ramped up more aggressively to provide more cooling for intensive games. There are two Aer P 120mm fans utilised for the Kraken Z53 which measures 120 x 120 x 26mm. The fans have a speed of 500 to 2,000 + 300 ROM. Its airflow is 18.28 – 73.11 CFM, and 0.18 to 2.93mm -H2O for the air pressure.

The test is done using the following setup under an ambient temperature of 30°C, and CPU stressed with RealBench, 3 sets of tests, each at a duration of 2 hours and utilizes as much memory as possible. The company refreshed and optimised the Kraken Z73 and Z63 AIO coolers. And when it comes to the Z53, it’s their smallest cooler that sports a 240mm radiator.

Performance

If you have other clearance issues or RAM modules, you can easily rotate the pump without compromising your aesthetics. For its performance, the Kraken Z53 definitely delivers, and it didn’t have any issues with keeping ideal temperatures. It was able to maintain it despite us switching between different games, and that’s with video and photo editing in-between. If after following the steps above your NZXT device is still not detected, then the device itself may be at fault and needs to be replaced. For further assistance, including warranty claims and setting up an RMA for the device please reach out to our Customer Support team. Cools my 7900x pretty decently. According to the cooler screen, it sits around 33-34 idling and the highest I've seen it hit is 37 degrees when doing short intense computations.

If the NZXT device still does not detect while connected to the motherboard then there may be an issue with the USB cable. If the device has a detachable USB cable, such as with the Kraken X2, X3, and Z series coolers then you can use a standard Mini USB or Micro USB cable (see the list below) to connect the device to an open USB Type-A port on the motherboard or with an external PC such as a laptop. Setting up this AIO cooler was extremely simple and easy. The only thing you need to make sure of is to mount the pump right. This is done by gradually tightening its screws to ensure a secure fit.

NZXT did a great job of making the Kraken Z53 with this size. It’s perfect for a compact chassis with narrow radiator support, which is something the Z63 and Z73 aren’t compatible with. Mice, Keyboards, Capture Devices, and Audio Devices will be listed under the top “Devices” section. The NZXT Kraken Z53 is a fan-requested product that PC enthusiasts have been waiting for and now it’s finally here! With the Z63 and Z73 being too large to fit in smaller cases, the Z53 is a welcome sight. Synchronise the Kraken Z pump with compatible NZXT components such as system fans to create dazzling RGB lighting effects. The Kraken Z53’s cap also features a 5V DC for its RGB channel output. Its LED quantity can reach from 4 up to 10 LED strips in total. The number of Aer RGB fans can go up to 5, while NZXT’s RGB accessories can go up to 6. Fans

That’s because it lets you manage it via CAM to display an entire collection of data. You can readily view the temperatures of the CPU and GPU, set up various light effects, or display other information.NZXT has a history of eye-catching hardware, and given the firm's catalogue of white PC chassis, it is no surprise to learn that its flagship liquid coolers are being given a pearly makeover. Kraken X- and Z-Series coolers are now available in matte white, as are Aer RGB 2 fans, and we have the mid-range Kraken Z53 RGB White in for review today. In the past, the CAM software and displays were quite buggy. Plus, a couple of motherboards even needed a USB hub for the display to get identified by CAM.
