At COMPUTEX 2025, NZXT had a simple launch with a product showcase that underscored its ongoing commitment to simplifying the PC building experience while delivering powerful cooling and striking aesthetics. The brand unveiled a new range of PC cases, revamped AIO liquid coolers, and moved into the 420 mm territory—both with radiator and their respective fan sizes. With a focus on airflow, streamlined design, and user-friendly integration, NZXT’s latest offerings cater to both compact setups and high-performance showpieces.
More Choices in Cases: H9 and H3 Flow Series
NZXT’s new case lineup expands in two directions—toward high-end dual-chamber builds and compact micro-ATX systems. The centrepiece of the case lineup is the updated H9 Flow series, which now includes the H9 Flow, H9 Flow RGB, and H9 Flow RGB+. These dual-chamber mid-tower cases are built for airflow and visual appeal. Borrowing the corner fan layout from the H6 Flow, they feature angled front-right intake fans that push cool air directly towards GPUs and other thermally sensitive components. Airflow is further enhanced with support for 420 mm radiators on both the top and front panels, while mesh intakes improve ventilation without compromising on aesthetics.
The H9 Flow RGB+ is the most feature-rich of the trio and comes with two F420 RGB Core fans pre-installed at the front-right and bottom positions, a 120 mm RGB Core fan at the rear, and a built-in NZXT Control Hub. This setup enables full NZXT RGB lighting synchronisation straight out of the box, especially when paired with an RGB Kraken AIO cooler. NZXT’s CAM software rounds out the experience with lighting presets, system monitoring, and fan control in a single interface. All three H9 cases are also compatible with rear-connecting motherboards, helping to eliminate cable clutter and maintain that ultra-clean aesthetic, complemented by wraparound tempered glass panels that fully showcase the build inside.
For builders working with limited space, NZXT also introduced the H3 Flow—a micro-ATX case that doesn’t skimp on performance. Despite its smaller footprint, the H3 Flow supports full-sized graphics cards and front-mounted 280 mm radiators. The PSU shroud design, inspired by the H5 Flow, is airflow-optimised to boost intake efficiency from the bottom fan. It’s also compatible with back-connect motherboards, offering an elegant solution for compact yet powerful systems.
Kraken Plus and Kraken Elite 420 RGB
Beyond cases, NZXT refreshed its Kraken AIO cooler lineup to improve thermal efficiency, simplify installation, and reduce cable clutter. The Kraken Plus series replaces the 2023 Kraken line and is available in both RGB and non-RGB versions. At its core is the NZXT Turbine pump, working alongside high-performance fans borrowed from the Kraken Elite series. According to NZXT’s internal thermal resistance testing, they claim that consumers can expect over 4 per cent better CPU cooling performance compared to the previous generation Kraken 280. The 1.54-inch square LCD on the pump head offers real-time temperature readouts and supports custom images and animated GIFs via NZXT CAM software. On the RGB models, a single breakout cable combines fan and lighting control, making installation and cable management much neater—particularly when paired with NZXT’s RGB Core fans.
At the top end of the cooling spectrum is the Kraken Elite 420 RGB, NZXT’s most powerful AIO yet. Designed for builds that support 420 mm radiators, it comes equipped with a larger 2.36-inch LCD display, improved installation experience, and ships with the new F420 RGB Core—a single-frame, triple 140 mm fan that supposedly delivers high airflow, bold RGB lighting, and simplified connectivity through a one-cable design. This cooler is tailor-made for high-performance systems housed in full-sized or dual-chamber cases like the new H9 Flow.
F420 RGB Core Fan
The F420 RGB Core isn’t just bundled with the Kraken Elite or H9 RGB cases—it’s also available as a standalone option for those looking to upgrade airflow or enhance lighting. As a single-frame, triple-fan unit, it simplifies installation by reducing the number of mounting screws and connectors, while still providing strong airflow and integrated lighting. It’s another example of NZXT’s design philosophy—delivering performance with fewer headaches for the builder.
