NZXT Kraken X42 CPU Cooler Review

If you are looking for a snazzy looking A-I-O CPU cooler that has a RGB lighting, check out this review of the NZXT Kraken X42 CPU cooler at Play3r today.

With this being their smallest radiator in the Kraken X*2 series we can’t expect insane cooling and off-the-charts success but NZXT has a reputation to protect and that’s something that hangs in the balance with every new design or product refresh. Will their rep be enhanced with the X42 or will it be in tatters? Time will tell as we get to the testing, but first the features and specifications of the Kraken X42.

Cooler Master Hyper 212x outperforming a Noctua NH-D15s? What kind of BS review is this?

Those numbers look way off. It's even posting better results than the x61 wtf?

Just goes to show how bogus most review testing really is .. just more obvious than most.

Probably tested in a case with very poor airflow using room ambient air temp as standard instead of actual cooler intake air temp. The old ",How come it seems so hot in this kitchen with 4 people, all burners on stove being used and 2 ovens baking things in them? I just looked at the themometer in the bedroom and it says its only 21c in here."
