Kraken Core

The Kraken Core is an AIO liquid cooler with reliable, consistent cooling and a clean, user-friendly design. It keeps your CPU cool and your system quiet during gaming and heavy workloads.

T120

The T120 provides high static pressure, moving ample air through the radiator for excellent cooling. It has 4 conductive copper heat pipes allowing for maximal thermal transfer from CPU to cooler.

How do liquid CPU coolers work?

The main parts of an AIO liquid cooler are -

Cold plate/water block: Metal plate (usually copper) sits on the CPU with thermal paste for good contact. Inside are microfins or channels.
Pump: Circulates coolant through the block, tubes, and radiator (often integrated into the block in AIO coolers).
Tubes: Carry coolant between block and radiator.
Radiator: Dense fin array that transfers heat to air.
Fans: Push/pull air through the radiator.
Coolant: Typically water with glycol and corrosion/biological inhibitors.

The heat path follows the below process -

CPU generates heat.
Heat conducts through the IHS and thermal paste into the cold plate.
Coolant flowing through microchannels absorbs the heat (convection).
Pump moves the hot coolant to the radiator.
Radiator fins spread heat; fans move air to remove it.
Cooled coolant returns to the block and the cycle repeats.

Are CPU coolers worth it?

In our opinion, if you’re doing a lot of intensive gaming or have a heavy workload on your CPU, having an upgraded cooling system is definitely worth it.
