Hi, I definitely recommend it: -). It's going really well, it surprised me. Installation is more complicated at first but everything is labeled in the package so it's easy - I used the kit for Intel, LGA1700. AMD kit is included. The price is higher but I don't regret it just because of the 60 months warranty: -)
Super design
Beautifully legible display
Functionality
NZXT CAM app
All in one package (for Intel and AMD)
Nothing's working great: -)

We'll see how long it lasts, but so far I have nothing to complain about.
This is my first AiO water solution, I was originally deciding between air (Noctua NH-D15 chromax. black) or water Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280 and NZXT Kraken 280. Unfortunately I needed something to take away right away, so I ended up buying this slightly more expensive version, and I'm very happy. I liked the display on the Elite version better anyway: )
With the NZXT H7 Flow with black tempered glass, it looks great. It is intentionally the only thing that "shines" from the cabinet + it can be controlled through various profiles, brightness settings, off, undersaturation,. GIFs, etc.
For me fine software from NZXT. It was one of the reasons why I decided to get this AiO.
I haven't seen the Ryzen 7800X3D exceed 60°C yet, but I certainly haven't used the most demanding games and tests possible to challenge it either. Kraken takes on the sausage, and super quietly gets in front of it: )
The silent setting does not significantly reduce cooling performance, and the watermaker is "almost" inaudible when working in Windows. We'll see how it will be under total game load, but I can say that if two people are talking in the room, even in a low voice, they probably won't hear the waterman at all.
The paste on the processor is already pre-made from the factory, which can be a negative for some if you want to use something better, but so far I have nothing to complain about it, on the contrary, I found it sympathetic, and it would definitely not be an obstacle for me to buy.
Since I built my gaming PC, I have "uploaded" the most time in my search. GIFs to backlight the LCD panel of this waterman: D
The fans could perhaps be a little quieter. If my life depended on it, and I had to decide blindfolded whether the computer was on or not, I would probably still "perceive" the waterman as on in a completely silent room. I'm considering whether to replace the original fans with Be Quiet or Noctua, but I admit myself that this is already a level of nitpick: )
The maximum temperature of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU was 79°C. I.e. 10 °C below Max. Operating Temperature (Tjmax). So total satisfaction. Plus, it's incredibly quiet. Gorgeous LCD displays, top SW, awesome RGB. Supports AM5 socket. I have absolutely nothing to complain about. And I'm pretty damn demanding: )
Excellent cooling of AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU - max 79°C at 100% load.
Cools even the most powerful AMD processors.
Very quiet
Awesome LCD display, fully configurable
Great SW
RGB great

great cooling
looks good
function
unfortunately 2 times advertised, once because of a bad cable (bad contact at the pump) and the second time the pump was skipping and sometimes it was running full speed and sometimes it dropped to 1-5 RPM
In my opinion, it's better than any cooling solution from Corsair. Unfortunately, I kept having software problems with Corsair, which meant that the fans could no longer be controlled properly. This is not the case with Nzxt. Simple, clear and not overloaded software, does what it's supposed to and has no problems with either an Intel i9 or a current AMD processor.
Great cooling Solutuion for my i9-14900k (before) and now my 7900x3d
Software is Quick and Easy to use, no complains

Cooled Intel core i7 14700KF below 84°C during heavy rendering in After Effects/Premiere 2024 via CPU usage on H265 & AV1 codec (Graphs show significant improvement)
There was no better expectation even though I was afraid that my choice would be wrong.
Very surprised how the Corsair iCUE H150i RGB ELITE (It went to temperatures that were really bad 107°C and more) in 2 years + maintained. The last time was an Intel Core i9 9900KF which cooled down to 84°C, but never above 90°C
All well described "ready-made Mercury construction site with description of what and how to where"
Nothing that I noticed, it cools well simply (1. day of use)
works great, doesn' t need much space, quiet, easy assembly.

Absolute satisfaction, both with the cooling performance (50 C does not exceed in normal operation i9 14900K) and with the software to the product.
