Superior cooling compared to air cooling
By Brandon Judd on Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2023
I bought this product because my Ryzen 7 5700X would consistently hit close to 80C and yes, I know this CPU can handle that but my fans were ramping up so high that it was heard through my headphones at times. This X53 cooler was the perfect fix, I'm never above 61-62C now, and I cant even hear the fans running with my headphones off, even with games running. Noise level A1. Install was pretty easy, but the provided directions are extremely vague and I ended up looking up a install guide that was much more helpful than the provided instructions. Main reason was the part that plugs into the pump has 3 wires and only 1 of them was explained in the instructions, the extra 3 pin fan header either goes into the AIO pump or CPU pump fan headers, thats how the system will recognize the pump and properly utilize it, otherwise it will stay at 100% fan spin.

NZXT X53 Kraken

Pump developed a rattling noise within a month, rather disappointing considering the price tag on this pc cooler. Went through the process of making sure no air bubbles were trapped in the pump and the issue persists. (Video added of the pump on 100%, the rattling is audible even at 40% speed)
