NZXT Launches H7 & H5 Cases and New Kraken AIO Liquid Coolers

NZXT H7 and H7 RGB+ Gaming Cases

The H7 is a large mid-tower case designed for PC builders who want to create an eye-catching build without compromising on space. Its standout feature is the one-piece, curved tempered glass panel that merges the front and left side panels into a single, seamless surface, eliminating corner seams.

Key Features of the H7 Series

• Vista Mode: The H7 comes standard with a glass panel cut to match the curve from the front to the side, creating a seamless glass view across three sides of the case.
• Interchangeable Top Panels: To balance aesthetics and performance, NZXT includes both the glass panel and a steel mesh top panel in the package, allowing users to switch between a “showcase” build and a setup optimized for airflow.
• Optimized Hardware Display: An angled bracket directs the bottom fans toward the glass, while the optional vertical GPU mount allows for a prominent display of the graphics card.
• Cable Management: The case supports motherboards with rear I/O, routing the power connectors behind the shelf. It also features a dedicated channel for AIO hoses to keep the interior tidy.
• Comprehensive Hardware Support: The H7 accommodates graphics cards up to 495 mm in length and CPU coolers up to 188 mm in height, and features a built-in, adjustable bracket to prevent sagging.
• RGB+ Edition: The H7 RGB+ comes with two pre-installed F420 RGB Reverse Single-Frame fans, one F140 RGB fan, and a Control Hub Lite.

NZXT H5 and H5 RGB+ as Compact Mid-Towers

The H5 brings the same high-quality curved-glass aesthetic to a more compact mid-tower form factor—ideal for smaller desktop setups that still require ATX compatibility.

Key Features of the H5 Series

• Seamless Glass Design: Like the H7, the H5 uses a single molded pane of glass for the front and side panels. The H5 RGB+ in particular features a glass panel in “Vista Mode” for an unobstructed view from above.
• Airflow Management: A unique side air intake vent is integrated into the front panel design, directing fresh air directly over the graphics card to keep temperatures low.
• Organized Internal Layout: Supports motherboards with rear I/O to hide unsightly power cables and allows for tool-free removal of the curved glass front panel, the right side panel, and the top cover.
• Compact Performance: Despite its size, the H5 supports graphics cards up to 420 mm in length as well as triple-fan coolers.
• **RGB+ Edition: The H5 RGB+ comes factory-equipped with a wired F360 RGB Reverse Single-Frame fan on the bottom and an F120 RGB fan on the back.

Kraken Plus 360 RGB Liquid Cooler

The Kraken Plus 360 RGB is a high-end AIO cooler for anyone who wants real-time system monitoring and visual customization options.

• Asetek Gen 9 Pump: Features a copper cold plate and a floating impeller to minimize vibration and noise.
• Integrated Edge-to-Edge Display: A 1.8-inch screen on the pump cap runs at 60 Hz and can display animated GIFs, custom images, or live system metrics via the NZXT CAM software.
• Simplified Installation: Uses an F360 RGB fan with a single-frame design that reduces cable clutter by combining three fans into a single unit with two cables.
• High-Quality Construction: Equipped with a 360-mm aluminum radiator and braided EPDM tubing for long-term durability.

Kraken Core 360 and Kraken Core 420 Coolers

The Kraken Core series offers highly efficient cooling without the complexity of a display, focusing on a minimalist design and maximum thermal headroom.

• Asetek Gen 9V Pump: Designed for quiet operation and vibration reduction.
• Minimalist Aesthetics: The pump cap features semi-transparent concentric rings and a magnetic logo cover that can be oriented in four different directions.
• High-Performance Cooler: Available in 360 mm and 420 mm sizes to cool even the most demanding CPUs.
• Plug-and-Play Simplicity: Features single-frame fans for static pressure and a single 4-pin PWM cable, eliminating the need for external hubs or controllers.
