OUR TAKE
Today we are taking a look at NZXT’s latest liquid coolers, the Kraken X-3 and Z-3 series. These are more of a refresh rather a total upgrade over last year’s X-2 series, but NZXT has made some notable tweaks. Between the two families there are five different coolers in three sizes, covering the usual 240/280/360mm configurations.
Both the X and Z series utilize the same cooling hardware, but NZXT has positioned the Z series as a premium option with a novel aesthetic feature – while the X series has RGB lighting on top of the pump base, the Z series tops its base with a full-fledged (and full color) LCD screen.
For this review we’re checking out both the X73 and the Z63, giving us a full view of the performance and features we can expect from most coolers that NZXT currently offers.

OUR TAKE
With a concrete performance showing for the 240mm AIO class, we were surprised to actually see the MasterLiquid ML240R RGB also provides better thermal numbers (spoiler: by just 0.1 degree Celsius) than the larger, Raijintek Orcus 360 AIO in direct comparison. When you pause and consider the ML240R RGB cost $300 less and has a smaller footprint, while besting bigger, pricier solutions, it’s easy for us to come away impressed.
Cooler Master brings the RGB light show to a CPU near you with their new MasterLiquid ML240R RGB AIO cooler. Facing a stalwart market of closed-loop liquid coolers, the ML240R RGB offers enough value, performance and visual appeal to carve itself a respectable spot among other AIOs, both within and even above its class.
back to menu ↑3.MSI MAG Series
Features
- Long Lasting Reliability: A durable three phase motor at the core of the pump generates minimal vibrations for long-lasting operation.
- Total RGB Fan Control: The included RGB fans support custom speed with PWM fan and customizable lighting through software.
- Rotatable Cap: Mount the cold plate in any orientation, turn the cap up to 270 degrees to keep it upright.
- Radiator Pump Design: The pump has been integrated into the radiator for noise reduction as well as increased life expectancy due to being away from heat source.
- Compatible Sockets & CPU: Intel LGA1150/1151/1155/1156/1200, LGA1366, LGA2011, LGA2011-3, LGA2066 / AMD AM4, FM2+, FM2, FM1, AM3+, AM3, AM2+, AM2, TR4
OUR TAKE
The MSI Optix MAG271CQR is a decent monitor for most uses. It’s designed with gaming in mind, and it delivers a great overall gaming experience. It isn’t very versatile though, as it has limited ergonomics, disappointing viewing angles, and terrible black uniformity.
The MSI Optix MAG271CQR is a decent 1440p monitor with a VA panel and a great design. It delivers great gaming performance, with an excellent response time, low input lag, and support for AMD’s FreeSync variable refresh rate technology for a nearly tear-free gaming experience

UX100 High Air Flow CPU Cooler is printed on the right side. The cooler is not compatible with the HEDT platform from Intel hence socket LGA-20xx is out of the question. It is compatible with the Intel LGA 115X/1366/775 and AMD AMx/FMx sockets.

OUR TAKE
The stock cooler on the 5600X is not good enough, really. You’ll be leaving a ton of performance on the table with it.
Try to secure a cheap/free Wraith Prism cooler from another user/builder who don’t need it – I often see this happen, where they have aftermarket solutions and don’t want the stock one at all.
You could also get a better cooler. Others have recommended some budget options, like the Arctic Freezer 34, but you can also try the Vetroo V5, which was reviewed by Jayztwocents and performed quite well.
Alternative, you could spend more for more, get something like the be quiet Dark Rock 4, or the big daddy NH-D15, the NH-U12S, or the NH-U14S, all of which comes in chromax.black.
