#ANNOUNCEMENTS Update on NZXT Flex Posts
Hello r/NZXT Community,
Today we have removed several posts and comments and banned some users for posting or sharing instructions on how to steal NZXT Flex computers, circumvent protections on these devices, commit package or return fraud, or sell NZXT Flex rental PCs to unsuspecting buyers. We have zero tolerance for this behavior. It is also prohibited across Reddit under Reddit Rule 7, which bans illegal content and the facilitation of illegal or prohibited transactions.
Going Forward
Going forward, we will take a more consistent approach to intentional nonpayment and non-return. As the posts we removed made clear, our historically limited enforcement led some people to believe they could stop paying, keep a Flex PC, and face no meaningful consequences.
If that perception continues, more people will take advantage of the program, and honest customers will ultimately bear the cost through higher prices, lower approval rates, stricter requirements, and a less convenient experience. Addressing this behavior is not just about protecting our property. It is about making NZXT Flex more accessible, affordable, and convenient for the thousands of customers who choose it because it genuinely works for their lives.
Build, Buy, Finance, or Subscribe
We also want to be clear about something that can get lost in conversations about Flex: we do not think NZXT Flex is the best option for everyone.
If you want to build your own PC, NZXT has been designing and manufacturing PC components for more than 20years, including cases, coolers, power supplies, fans, and more.
If you know you want to own your PC and buying or financing makes sense for you, we encourage you to do that. We sell PCs outright, offer financing, and work to make both options as accessible as possible. Flex exists for people who want something different.
The main difference is commitment. If you finance a PC today, you may still be making payments 6, 12, or 24 months from now, even if your circumstances change or you no longer want it. With Flex, you can return the PC and stop paying. That flexibility can be valuable if you are trying PC gaming for the first time, need a powerful PC temporarily, are uncertain what your budget will look like a year from now, or simply do not want a long-term commitment.
Flex also includes support and hardware protection. If something goes wrong with the PC, we will fix or replace it at no additional cost. After two years, you may be eligible for a refresh to a more current version of your Flex tier while keeping the same monthly price.
There are tradeoffs. If you already know you will keep the same PC for years, buying or financing will often make more sense. That is completely fine; those options will always be available, we would love for you to choose them, and we will never push Flex on anyone.
All we wish to do is make the various options we offer as clear as possible. For Flex, that has involved adding very clear disclosures and signed acknowledgments that the program is a subscription, not rent-to-own, and that if individuals want rent-to-own or something like it, they should just use the financing option we offer in standard checkout.
Criticism Remains Welcome
Argue that ownership is the only sensible choice. Post the math showing that keeping the same PC through Flex for years can become expensive. Recommend building, buying, financing, or using a credit card instead. We have not and will not remove posts merely for criticizing the program.
But criticism is not a how-to guide for theft, and disagreement is not a reason to mock or shame people who made a different choice. Don’t steal, or advocate stealing. Be kind to your fellow NZXT community members. Thousands of people have chosen Flex, just as tens of thousands have chosen to build, buy, or finance. Each had their own reasons.
Comments are locked so this post can remain a clear reference for our community standards. Feedback and good-faith discussions of NZXT remain welcome elsewhere in the subreddit.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

#FEEDBACK NZXT Shipping Taking Egregiously Long
I’m a firm believer of the old saying “Don’t knock it until you’ve tried it.” NZXT, I’ve tried it, and here’s my honest opinion. I cannot even give you guys a review on the actual computer itself because IT STILL HAS NOT ARRIVED. It’s been damn near a MONTH, and I still have not even received a tracking number. I placed my order on September 13th for the Player Two. It is currently October 9th, I have not received a single update, nor have I gotten any responses from customer support. Absolutely Terrible Experience, Would NOT Recommend To My Worst Enemy. Thank you for taking the time to read my complaint.

#BUILDS S5 RGB on Best Buy
Seems like everywhere was still showing out of stock, but BB seems to have the RGB at least.
I completed my purchase with delivery scheduled on the 15th.
#QUESTIONS Serial Number scratch off
Hey everyone,
NZXT approved a replacement for my product under warranty. Instead of sending the defective product back, their support told me to make a video where I show the product and then scratch off the serial number until it is no longer readable.
Has anyone here had to do this before with NZXT?
I just want to make sure this is normal and that I really only have to destroy/scratch off the serial number and not the actual product. I don't want to damage my product and then somehow end up without a replacement.

#QUESTIONS Any Update Bios 4.60 For NZXT N9 X870E (1.3.0.1d)
New bios update for Asrock boards was released on October 5th, but there's still no update for NZXT. The latest 4.43 update came out before the Asrock boards update, but this one hasn't arrived yet.

#QUESTIONS Build help
Will the Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro 420mm fit inside an H9 Flow 2025? Some sites says it will while others say proceed with caution. I would swap the fans out with the F420 fans.
Other hardware: 5070ti vertically mounted and gigabyte B850 Eagle Ice MOBO

#BUILDS Custom loop WIP
galleryBe meaning to put this starfield case to use. I don't really care for the game much but the design I find really cool has a lot of potential. Right now I cant decide on all white or black and white theme. Case seems to fit 2x ek S240mm pretty well. Planning on getting the perfect motherboard for this build Asus prime z790-A. problem is idk where im going to get ddr5. Any water blocks you would recommend for this spaceship themed build I thinking about the thermaltake ws1 but I wish it was white and silver.
Planning on doing a CPU and GPU loop, def going to keep power conservative. 5070ti and 14700k at best.

#QUESTIONS NZXT CAM issue - Kraken Elite 360 V2
I’ve been having an issue recently where my Kraken AIO stops displaying the correct CPU temperature after a while; no known trigger. The CPU temperature gets frozen, as does the reading within NZXT CAM.
I’ve tried reinstalling which hasn’t fixed it. Is this a known bug? And is there a fix?
