I am looking for input on the Kraken X62 for my new build from anybody that has owned one for a while. I was initially looking at the X52 but there seems to be a lot of bad reviews for that unit with dead pumps. I know this forum usually recommends the Alphacool Eisbaer but in all honesty I think that thing is really ugly and the looks will not fit the theme of my build at all... The Warranty for the Kraken seems solid at 6 years and it is an extremely clean looking cooler. Should I just pony up and buy it or is there something better out there? Thanks...

The 52 and 62 use the same pump. So....those dead 52 pumps translate to dead 62 pumps.

The Swiftech is a far better unit in terms of cooling, noise, components and is expandabke. Maybe it also has enough LEDs.
