On the other hand, NZXT has expanded the range of radiation NZXT Kraken-Z3 with a new member in the family: that of 240 millimeters. In addition to the 280 mm and 360 mm versions under a price of 229,99 $. This model does not have RGB lighting, but it also has the NZXT RGB connector.
We are therefore faced with the more modest version of the NZXT Kraken-Z3 due to its small size, unlike the NZXT Kraken-3 RGB that it includes as standard. circular LCD display to monitor the status of the radiator at any time. In addition, as with the X3, we can rotate the pump so that its position inside the PC case does not conflict with other components, but in this case in periods of 90 °.
The other difference from the Kraken-X3 RGB is the use of Aer P120 fans, which are no different from the P120 RGB except for not having integrated RGB lighting.
