I'm guessing pcpp does not know there are ryzen kits for the Kraken?

According to Nzxt they still do not have validation for their AM4 bracket.

 

According to http://www.tomshardware.com/news/amd-ryzen-am4-motherboard-heatsink-problem,33771.html the problem is more general than that. In fact it looks like particular motherboard/cooler combinations may have issues that others do not.
