Hey Fellas,
This weekend my Kraken kit came in the mail. It was just in time for me to spend the time getting it installed. Before I can even begin to sound like I did this all on my own, here is a youtube video. NZXT Kraken G10 Install without Removing Heatsink - YouTube
This guy has it all figured out and offers some good insite. View the video before you order as you will need a spacer. You need a copper spacer between the GPU and the water block. (See video). The instructions were so easy to follow. However, no mention of the spacer. I used a Corsair H55 and had a massive drop of temperature. I lost about 10C under load. Idle temps are ridiculous too (39C).
So before I make this into a long post, I just wanted to say, this product works.
Looks slick! I’m always worried about those fixed length hoses - too short and it won’t reach over/around components, too long and you have to bend it to fit it inside your case.
Sorry I took so long to reply. My work PC was not up to the task of uploading a single photo.
This was a real easy install. I would give it a 3 if you build your own PIN PC ONE by Mark, on Flickr

A very large Ego. No, seriously, I have two cases that I have had since Jesus was a private. One is this one, the other has a 1000 watt pwr supply. I bought these back when you needed these dinosaurs. If I had to pay my electric bill I would probably get rid of these… I may want SLI someday… You never know…
@EinsteinEP’s giphy link redirects to flash (Giphy doing something weird), and on Chrome that’s blocked and Firefox/FF Mobile it’ll download the flash .swf file. I’ve edited the post to stop it.
