NZXT Launches Curved-Glass H7 and H5 Cases, Plus New Kraken Coolers

OFFICIAL Written by GPN · Nov 10, 2026, 6:00 PM ET · · Tech

NZXT has launched new generations of its two case lines and two liquid coolers: the H7 and H7 RGB+, the H5 and H5 RGB+, the Kraken Plus 360 RGB, and the Kraken Core 360 and 420. The headline change is a single formed panel of curved tempered glass covering the front and left side of both cases, with no corner seam interrupting the view of the build.

On the larger H7, a tempered glass top cut to the same radius comes fitted as standard, which NZXT calls Vista Mode, so the glass runs unbroken across three faces. A steel mesh top ships in the box too, so the same chassis converts between a glass showcase and an airflow build. The compact H5 gets the same curved glass, with a mesh top on the base model and Vista Mode glass on the RGB+ version, plus a side intake NZXT calls the Airflow Scoop.

Both coolers are Cooled by Asetek on copper cold plates. The Kraken Plus 360 RGB carries a 1.8-inch, 60 Hz display on the pump cap for images, GIFs or live system readouts, while the Kraken Core is the simpler version with concentric rings under a semi-transparent cap and a single cable for its one-frame fan.

Prices start at $89.99 for the H5 and $159.99 for the H7, rising to $134.99 and $259.99 for the RGB+ versions. The Kraken Core 360 is $79.99, the Core 420 is $99.99, and the Kraken Plus 360 RGB is $149.99. NZXT also announced Quiet Airflow fans, a C1200 Platinum power supply at $199.99, and a PCIe 5.0 vertical GPU mounting kit at $49.99. The range rolls out to retailers worldwide over the coming months.
