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

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

fits beautifully with NZXT H9 Case
complicated wiring of all cabling (both to the AIO itself and all RGB and PWR from the fan)
it's not really keeping the 7800X3D cool. First with stock paste, then with Kryonaut, I sometimes reach Tjmax (89°C). Idle does not go below 50°C

This is my third water cooling system from NZXT. For the first time I bought a top AIO under this brand, and I do not regret this choice at all. Is the display worth the extra cost? Absolutely. Admittedly, I'm not one of those gamers who slowly watches a movie on a cooler, but as a result, it's very nice that one can fully customize the display. The color quality and saturation is great, and the stats displayed on the screen are awesome. The AIO is very quiet unless you are gaming. If you're editing 4K (I shoot in lossless quality, definitely makes the PC sweat), the water cooling is fairly quiet. For gaming, it's already somewhat worse and indeed, so far, this is my noisiest cooling. I mean, sometimes I really need to step it up on the speakers. On the other hand, it can cool even 14900K, the base paste holds temperatures up to 50°C. But be warned, once in a while the NZXT app throws me a setting where the cooling responds to the temperature curve of the cooling medium, not the CPU. This is where the problem can occur, and the first day before I figured it out I had BSOD on some games. The CPU simply overheated.
Cool i9 14900k
The factory paste is good enough, it can hold temperatures around 40°C under load
Great design
Option to set the display appearance - gif/image/different values
NZXT software is great
The pump is quiet
In case of undemanding PC use, the Kraken is beautifully quiet
Display - its size and quality
Need to watch out for software settings, sometimes it reverts to default (problem with cooling performance reacting to fluid temperature instead of CPU)
If you want to cool a powerful processor, you have to go to the max, which you will definitely hear

Appearance
It keeps the processor temperature at render to 50-60C, which I find incredibly good for an i9 12900k +- at around 80C on tests
Variable Display, everything can be set there.
The pump itself is quiet enough
The preset paste is of sufficient quality
Noise, when it spins up you can really hear it
The price may be too much for a lot of people, but the processor temperatures match the price tag

For me a nice AIO cooler, although expensive, but for the gadgets you just pay extra. The only thing to be careful of when installing is to use washers under the screws that you use to bolt the fans to the radiator, otherwise you will screw the radiator waves through. If the RGB controller in the NZXT software doesn't work to change the RGB, try fiddling with the cable connections in the RGB controller (try changing the order of the cables).

Noise, it's really quite audible when you want to cool a powerful CPU to some nice temperature ranges, but that's a negligible detail compared to what this AIO cooler offers

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

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)
