Officially, Corsair doesn't state that it is compatible with any dual-fan sized AIO CPU coolers, leaving both the Kraken X52 and X62 out. However, the Kraken X42 would fit in the front of the case. The Kraken X42 is a 140mm AIO cooler with the RGB infinity-mirror-like block.

Wait, so the front of the case has 140mm places to put the fans? It's just that I checked and it said that it supports up to five 120mm fans so I wasn't sure. Thanks

According to Corsair, the case can take two 120mm or 140mm fans in the front, so yes. They also specifically say that you can fit a 140mm radiator in the front.
