I've had it for yeeeeears
I've changed several CPUs and now, with a workaround on a 1700 socket, it just does its job............"with ease"

Very bad product, it doesn't fit at all on the motherboard. After 1 year of use, problems started, and in the end, the motherboard has warped due to the cooler, while at the same time the cooler wasn't sitting properly and wasn't stable on the CPU.

Edit: after a workaround, I finally discovered that the cooler doesn't sit properly on the CPU, so it reaches high temperatures...
I removed 2 central screws and tightened the screws as loosely as possible to avoid damage.
There are videos on YouTube for the correct installation...
Now the temperatures are 50 degrees with a 100% stress test and 40% fan speed... The processor is an FX 8320 with 125W TDP.
I just wish the installation had been simpler from the start and that I didn't have to remove the factory backplate. I know other models from Cooler Master fit with clips on the backplate, very easily and much more stably.

Minimum purchase with maximum performance!
Absolutely vfm!! I have bought 10-15 used and new ones over time!!
It will never betray you!! Completely silent and does serious work!!
Very troublesome to install. In 99 out of 100 cases, you will need to remove the motherboard..
But the result counts! It has no rival in its price range and can withstand demanding water cooling.. The latest test was also with the excellent and significantly advanced hyper 212 rbg black edition.
P.S. I always add a 12cm low-speed fan (up to 800-1000) for pull and it usually drops the temperature by 2-3 degrees.

Very good cooler, it was attached to an i5 2500 and now to an i3 9100F. The fan speed was adjusted from the motherboard's BIOS and the temperature does not go above 68 degrees even in new games.

The cooler is bomb, ladies and gentlemen, on an fx 6300, for about seven years I never had a problem with temperatures, even though I never overclocked, max 35 degrees.
In a midi tower, I don't think you will have a problem with the size.
Quality. I think I bought it for around 35€, it's definitely worth it.

It is a very good cooler, I installed it a few days ago on an i5 8400 processor and I saw the temperatures drop significantly. Under medium load, they do not exceed 34 degrees. The only problem is the installation, as it is quite complex. There are several tutorials available to show you how to install it.

I chose this cooler to replace a liquid cooling kit, the tubes of which were dangerously damaged... It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the cooler is just as effective as liquid cooling (in an air-conditioned room) and that it is truly silent. It is worth every penny (which is not a lot)!

Value for money for Overclocking, I reached my i5 4670k at 4.4GHz and it barely reaches 69 degrees Celsius! Even with the stock cooler from Intel, it was at 87 degrees Celsius under stock settings. Its installation is unnecessarily difficult and requires removing the entire motherboard to install the special brackets from behind. In the end, it is worth all the effort because the cooling result will reward you and then some.

I only play cs:go on a Ryzen 3 2200G and it has dropped from 60 degrees to 40 now.. it's a bit challenging to position it, but it's worth it

It is one of those products that you say, it's better to get two because such quality doesn't come out again!!! I got two...!

Excellent cooler! At an excellent price! At least for the A8 that I have in two PCs.
It outperforms an Enermax almost twice the price that I have in the other PC.
Temperatures are low both in the room and on the motherboard.
Of course, the processors are not monsters, but you can't call them weak either, and they are actually slightly overclocked on both. Buy it with your eyes closed, you won't regret it!

I have it here for 6 years on an AMD FX 8350 and it does its job perfectly even when overclocked up to 4.8GHz, which is easy for the 8350

It cools the i5 9600k excellently with a slight oc (at 4.1). It is quite bulky (be careful to fit it in the case. See the maximum height of the cooler in the specifications provided by the case manufacturer). Completely silent.

At some point - due to my own mistake - I blocked the fan by the power supply cables. Well, it didn't break at all. It's been working perfectly for 2.5 years now. I remember during the time of my Pentium II, something similar happened and the fan broke.

For the installation, I struggled a bit, but I think they give Masters in mechanical engineering to those who manage to install it, so I check my mailbox every day for the diploma.

I have an i7 7700K overclocked to 4.8 GHz. During stress tests, it reaches up to 65 degrees Celsius. With normal use, it stays around 30 to 35 degrees Celsius, and in games, it reaches about 60 degrees Celsius. Many people say that this specific processor gets high temperatures, so I was hesitant to buy it and was considering water cooling, but it was beyond my budget. Now I can definitely say that it does a great job in cooling my processor, and I don't regret buying it at all. It's a great value for money, don't even think about it, I don't think there's anything better at this price. Of course, it's a bit bulky, but it fits comfortably in my case (nzxt s340 elite), I'm not sure about smaller cases.

Excellent cooling on i7 8700. Reduced temperatures by half!
In an export of Davinci with all cores at full, it reached 63, which is also the highest I have observed.
Slightly difficult installation if the case does not have a cutaway for easy access to the motherboard.

I have had it for over a year on an 8600k at 4.8. It is excellent, of course, for its price. It gave me a little trouble with installation.

It is barely audible in heavy games, in regular use it is an environmental sound, meaning it is immediately absorbed by the ear. Excellent choice for air cooling.

I put it in an fx 8350 ok with the cooling, but the memory barely fits, it just touches a little and that scares me... and no matter how I put it, it seems a bit unstable... I don't like the system it has to hold onto the cpu...

I have put it on an i7-8700 (locked) and it lowered the temperatures by half. For example, while running Pubg, it went down from 80-88 C to 40-50 C, working at full speed (4.2 Ghz turbo mode), and I never heard it.
You need to pass the mount behind the motherboard, and this was a bit time-consuming as my case didn't have an opening at the back, so I had to remove the whole motherboard. I didn't have any issues with RAM in terms of space on an ATX MoBo and Midi Tower.
If you overclock the processor, you probably need something better

The AMD 8350 with its stock had 40 degrees minimum, while now it has 17 degrees maximum, and with Fortnite it had 70+ minimum, while now it has 30 maximum! It's worth its money and more! The only thing it needs is a relatively spacious case

Entered a machine with i3-8100. In idle, the temperature is 19 degrees and with CSGO running for about an hour at full 1080p graphics, it rose to 29 degrees. The installation was a bit strange, but I didn't have much trouble. I didn't like the manual that came with it, and I had to watch a YouTube video to understand exactly how to put it on. I think it's worth its money.

Unbelievable cooling guys! Choose without fear!! After 4 years on FX 8350
9C min
50C max (after hours of gaming FAR CRY 5)
For better results, prefer to add a second fan at the back (input - exhaust)
And change the thermal paste every 5-6 months, especially before the summer months!!

Very efficient cooler. I have the fx 8350 and in the summer it barely heats up. Of course, you need to have a case with a lot of width, otherwise you go for another case or another cooler. I have Cougar Archon and it fit perfectly. For thermal paste, I used Arctic MX-4

Generally one of the best air coolers. It lowers the temperature while being quieter compared to the stock fx 8350 cooler.
A reliable choice for those who do not want liquid cooling.
The installation is not as easy, it requires patience and time, but otherwise I am satisfied

Very good cooler from the best ones that have passed through my hands. The only negatives are the volume and the placement.

I have a Gigabyte z270p d3 motherboard and I couldn't install it no matter what. The board wouldn't fit into the socket. It's quite difficult to install it.

High temperatures for such a cooler. The core i5 3470 processor goes up to at least 61 degrees with overclock... what a waste of money
