NZXT Expands Award-Winning Ecosystem with New Cases & Cooling
Featuring the reimagined H9 Flow series, all-new H3 Flow, next-gen Krakens, and new 420mm options.
LOS ANGELES, May 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- NZXT, a leader in PC gaming components, peripherals, and prebuilt systems, today introduced its latest generation of PC components designed to enhance thermal efficiency and building simplicity while expanding options for gamers and builders. This launch includes new and redesigned cases, upgraded AIO coolers, and 420mm cooling options—all part of NZXT's growing ecosystem.
"With the all-new micro-ATX H3 Flow and refreshed H9 Flow series, we're offering more case options than ever—whether you're prioritizing space efficiency or pushing performance to the max," said Felix Guerra, SVP of Product Generation & Development at NZXT. "We've expanded into 420mm territory for both coolers and single-frame fans, and updated the baseline Kraken series with improved thermal performance—all while maintaining the same display and pricing that make screen-equipped AIOs more accessible to a wider range of builds."
Cases: From Spacious to Space-Saving
Leading the launch is the flagship H9 Flow series—including the H9 Flow, H9 Flow RGB, and H9 Flow RGB+. These spacious dual-chamber mid-towers are built for high-performance systems, featuring top and front 420mm radiator support, airflow-optimized mesh panels, and angled front-right corner fans. This angled-airflow design—adapted from the best-selling H6 Flow—helps direct cool air where it's needed most. Wraparound tempered glass paneling showcases internal components, while support for rear-connecting motherboards enables a clean, cable-free look.
The H9 Flow RGB+ is designed to enable a fully synchronized NZXT RGB lighting setup right out of the box. It includes two F420 RGB Core fans in the front-right and bottom, a 120 mm RGB Core fan in the rear, and a pre-installed NZXT Control Hub. When combined with a top-mounted RGB Kraken AIO cooler, an H9 Flow RGB+ build is ready for CAM-powered system-wide cooling control and lighting synchronization.
For more compact setups, the new H3 Flow offers impressive airflow in a micro-ATX form factor. Inspired by the latest H5 Flow, it features an airflow-optimized PSU shroud that improves bottom fan intake. The case supports full-size GPUs and a 280mm front radiator, and is compatible with back-connect motherboards—delivering a space-saving footprint without compromising performance.
Cooling: Refreshed Krakens and New 420 mm Sizes
The Kraken Plus series replaces the 2023 Kraken lineup with improved thermal performance and a simplified installation process. Available in both non-RGB and RGB versions, it features the NZXT Turbine pump and high-performance fans from the 2024 Kraken Elite—delivering over 4% better CPU cooling performance*. The 1.54-inch square LCD displays real-time system temperatures, custom images, and GIFs via NZXT CAM software, while the single breakout cable integrates both fan and lighting control on RGB models—working seamlessly with the one-connector RGB Core single-frame fan for a cleaner, more streamlined build.

The Kraken Elite 420 RGB expands NZXT's flagship AIO lineup with its largest and most powerful cooler yet. Designed for cases with 420mm radiator support, it features a stunning, customizable 2.36-inch LCD, a more intuitive installation experience, and comes equipped with the new F420 RGB Core—a single-frame, triple 140mm fan that delivers strong airflow, vibrant lighting, and streamlined one-cable connectivity.
The F420 RGB Core is also available as a standalone fan and comes pre-installed in the latest H9 Flow RGB and H9 Flow RGB+ cases. It delivers high-performance cooling and bold lighting while reducing build clutter with fewer screws, cables, and connectors.
