does it come with thermal paste?

The cooler will come with pre-applied thermal paste

What Thermal paste comes on the water cooler

The NZXT Kraken 240-240mm AIO CPU Liquid Cooler comes with pre-applied NZXT High-Performance Thermal Paste on the copper plate of the water block. The make of the thermal paste is not publicly available.

can this fit LGA 1200 sockets?

Yes the cooler will support the 1200 socket type

Will the pump head brackets mount properly onto a n5 z690 motherboard? since the vrm heatsinks are quite large and positioned oddly

I installed this on a n7 z790 without any issues. I would assume that because they are both nzxt products they would be compatible.
