For full control of the Kraken Plus cooler, the NZXT CAM software is required. While the Kraken can be used without the NZXT CAM software, it will run in a limited default mode for the screen, pump, and fan speeds (for connected fans).
In default mode, the pump will be locked at a fixed percentage (~80%) and the screen will only display the Liquid temperature of the cooler.
With the CAM software running you'll be able to unlock the full potential of the Kraken Plus cooler including features such as:
- Customizable display modes, including alternative stats such as CPU and GPU temperature, load, or custom images.
- Dynamic fan and pump curves, adjusting the speed of these components based on the temperature of the CPU, GPU, or Liquid.
