It is quite clear that the NZXT Kraken G10 is an impressive product, especially when paired with the excellent NZXT Kraken x40.Although the G10 could theoretically be used with a larger cooling unit such as the Kraken X60, we doubt that there would be...

NZXT's Kraken G10 GPU bracket is somewhat of a unique product. The only similar product appears to be Corsair's HG10, but that has yet to hit the market despite a soft-launch back in June 2014. The Kraken G10 GPU bracket is designed to replace a GPU's...

One word really sums it up for me - WOW! Now really, the glory goes to the X31 - after all, it did all the work. But NZXT hits the ball out of the park with the combination of the X31 and the G10. My GPU temps took a huge dive under the heaviest of...

NZXT claims that the Kraken G10 can yield up to a 40% increase in performance (cooling), which isn't phrased quite right. The actual performance difference of cooling solutions is properly calculated by comparing the °C/W performance ratings, not just by...

The NZXT Kraken G10 might “just” be an adapter that allows users to use an Asetek-sourced AIO CPU water cooler, but it's supremely effective. It allows for the easy installation of a compatible AIO CPU cooler onto a graphics card. If you already own an...

People often think that the simplest ideas have already been made. The NZXT Kraken G10 is a product that is so simple and brilliant it makes you wonder why it hasn't been done before. NZXT has successfully developed a product that takes any Asetek style...
