NZXT Kraken

  • Nice.
    Kraken Control version 1.6 installed successfully
    Software is now working and I have control of all aspects of the cooler
    Hindi lang binabalik yung RPM ng fans for some reason baka kelangan sa unang connectors nakakabit fans

    Wire tuck muna then picture picture ng rig then experiment sa ibang fan placements
    Stock placement ng fans as indicated in the instructions - sandwiched between case and rad
    Thank you NZXT for a swift (in my experience) resolution
  • push-pull fans config with working Kraken Control software (minus the fans rpm reading)



    push fans NZXT FZ 140mm LED white (non-PWM)
    pull fans stock Kraken PWM 140mm

    without flash



    The rear exhaust fan is a Scythe 120x12mm Slip Stream slim
    Hindi kasya 25mm thick fan sa lapit ng tubes
    Maski itong 12mm tinutulak ng tubes kaya for the photo nilagyan ko muna zip tie tubes to make the fan rotate
    current set-up may stove type fan grill na yung Scythe (updated photos to follow)

    Umuubra na Kraken control profiles (Silent, Custom, Extreme) kahit hindi PWM fans yung push
    Kelangan lang PWM-nonPWM-PWM-nonPWM ang pagkasaksak sa fan bus ng Kraken
    experiment pa ako para mapalabas fans rpm

    Ang isang issue ko ngayon sa unang bukas ng PC walang CPU temp sa Kraken Control
    Hindi nabubuhay yung Open Hardware Monitor automatically kasama ng Kraken Control
    Troubleshoot pa konti
  • hello, i just installed my kraken x60. pump seems to be running, the led is on, and all is well.

    but i simply cannot get the kraken control software to detect the x60

    *note: i am not concerned with the issue of the kraken x60 not displaying cpu temps, i have found a supposed solution to this problem*

    what i specicfically am concerned with is getting the x60 detected, and/or detected by \'kraken control\'

    motherboard: 990fx sabertooth r2.0
    OS: windows 7 ultimate 64bit

    i have tried:

    -updating my bios to the latest one (v2501, i even learned how to bios flashback, lol.)
    -tried installing on both the usb headers, restarting after the install on both
    -transferring the 3pin of the kraken from the cpu_fan to the cpu_opt
    -removed all,fans on the x60 splitter, but the two pwm nzxt fans
    -tried installing khuler chill control V version 1.2 (still did not detect the x60)
    -using the stock 1.1 version of kraken control from the cd that came with it
    -using the 1.6 version of kraken control from nzxt website

    still no luck.


    really need suggestions,
    thanks in advance

  • that\'s interesting
    na check mo na sir kung may kelangan enable sa USB mobo headers mo sa BIOS?
    I suppose after you updated the BIOS you set it to optimal settings first then checked?
  • X61 introduced along with the revised CAM software
    Now taking the CAM software for a spin

    Antay nung new 140mm PWM V2 fan for more performance on the old X60
  • hello ask ko lng, kasi balak kong bumili ng 200mm fans, pero wala nmn available na pwm/4pin 200mm fans, pero hindi nmn importante un, ang concern ko lng, pwede ko bang i-connect un sa 4pin fan header ng kraken (ung apat na connector na naka chain, tapos ung nakakonect sa mobo is ung usb connector) ung 3pin 200mm fan na bibilhin ko?
  • aandar pero sasabay sa settings ng NZXT software
    sagad RPM niyan malamang kung low speed silent fan ang gamit mo
    kung high speed naman sigurado maingay

    I once connected a Corsair PF 120mm to the chain
    ayun full speed at super ingay. hindi kasi umabot power cable sa mobo header
    nabilhan ko na ng extension at tahimik na buhay ngayon
  • how do you mean sagad? dba na se-set-up naman un sa nzxt kraken software ung fan speed? para hindi 100% rpm? saka pwede ba gamitin ung CAM software sa old kraken?

  • sinubok ko first version ng CAM hindi umubra
    yung new version mukhang specific pa lang sa X61 & X41

    sagad meaning mataas agad fan speed nung Corsair 120mm
    judging from the noise it was making, for some reason ayaw niya sumabay
    sa set-up ng controller

    ibinalik ko na ulit sa mobo header after makabili ng extension 3-pin cable
    tahimik na ulit mundo ko

    nakapag re-install na din ako ng Win8.1 pero quirky pa din
    hindi ko ma perfect itong install ng Win8 although pangalawa pa lang ito at
    hindi clean install dahil upgrade lang license ko

    nakikita ni Win8 yung device pero hindi niya makilala na USB device sa una
    hulaan pa kung anong device yun unlike yung ibang devices kahit wireless
    madaling makita na HID device, eto sablay, eh
  • Hello Fellow NZXT Kraken users.. May problema po yung kraken ko.

    Nasira yung mobo ko nung Friday parehas ng bumigay yung GPU slot nya, kaya nag decide ako bumili ng mobo nung Saturday kahapon.. Yung mobo ko ngayon mga sir ay MSI 970 gaming. Nung sa luma kong mobo at setup, ok naman hindi naman nag overheat yung ProcIC.. Nung nag kinabit ko na sa bagong mobo, nag overheat yung ProcIC namamatay kapag 110`C na.. ang bilis tumaas ng temp, mga 30sec - 1minute mag 110`C na siya.. tapos pag hinawakan ko yung tubo mainit yung isang tubo yung isa hindi..

    iniisip ko baka hindi gumagana yung pump.. pag hinawakan ko naman yung pump may vibrations naman, di ko lang alam kung galing sa pump mismo o vibrations ng fan yun.. dalawang beses na akong nag tanggal kabit baka hindi lapat yung pag kabit ko pero ok naman, same as before naman pag lalagay ko.. saka may thermal paste akong nilalagay, china nga lang na mumurahin pero nag try ako ng dalawang brand.. yung isang brand ok naman sa i5 ng utol ko..

    Baka po may experience kayo or may troubleshooting steps na pwedeng gawin.. Please advise nalang po.. salamat po!
  • hello guys, ask ko lang po sana san may available na kraken x41 na alam nyo within NCR. wala na kasi ako makita dito sa tpc or anywhere. phase out po ba sya? thanks!
  • Hindi sikat Kraken maski sa TPC eh. Best to search local distro from their site then contact them for retailers. Otherwise Amazon na at ibang equivalent sellers na lang katapat
  • I have to give NZXT props for making the CAM software work with the Kraken X60 despite being discontinued for some time
    And it works very well with Windows 10 Pro, too
    I\'m impressed



    Next stop try to access the thing from the Internet on my mobile device
  • also interested on Kraken X41. Planning on upgrading and adding 2 more ram sa rig ko kaya lang natatakpan ung slots nung EVO ko. Sana iport na nila dito ung x41
  • May alam po ba kayo kung saan may stock pa ng NZXT Kraken X61?
  • search mo lang dito boss kraken x61 may maihigit limang hits pili ka lang dun malapit sa iyo
