  • Truly the most worth it air cooler on the market. It keeps my Ryzen 7 9800X3D under 73 degrees at full load

    Very honest cooler for its money, installed on an i5-14600k. Very easy installation but even if you have trouble somewhere, it has instructions for every type of socket. The only thing you need to watch out for is that it touches the RAM, at least for me it did, and I just lifted one of the fans a bit, it's nothing serious. It fits easily in the case overall and the temperatures it gives the processor are very good.

    Very good and easy to install. I have it on a Ryzen 7 9700X and it cools it very well with usage averaging 60-80%.

    It matters because AMD GPUs draw so much power when stock that they heat up the processor which is right above them.

    CPU (Tctl/Tdie) max temp 85

    This particular CPU has a Tjmax from AMD of 89 degrees and AMD itself recommends LC to be safe. So I will say that the results of 85 degrees are respectable for air cooling.

    Excellent cooling and outstanding efficiency for its price.
    Its installation is relatively simple, with the only challenge being the alignment of the cooler's screws with the base's slots. When screwing in, gentle pressure is required so that the thread "catches" properly.
    Other than that, its performance is very satisfactory. It keeps an AMD Ryzen 5 9600X Overclocked at excellent temperature levels, with a maximum value of 80°C during Cinebench R23 Multicore testing and only 49°C at idle. In 2K gaming with fully utilised CPU and GPU, the processor temperature does not exceed 70°C.

    It was a bit difficult to install, so it gets 4 stars. I don't know how it performs on other processors, but on my Ryzen 5 3600, in games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Star Wars Jedi Survivor, the temperature was 65 to 70 degrees from time to time.

    AMD RYZEN 5600 from stock cooling with 85°C-95°C. Under heavy use with Call of Duty, it averages 60°C. It just takes up quite a bit of space.

    In terms of efficiency, it is amazing; it noticeably lowered the temperature to a great extent. As for the noise, you wouldn't call it silent, but it's not annoying either; I think it's just fine. In terms of size, it is very large, so make sure it fits in your case. For the 50 euros I paid for it, I can say that it is good value for money and that it outperforms several more expensive and branded coolers

    Very good cooler, installed on Ryzen 9 5900X very easily for its socket since it doesn't need to remove the backplate, but uses the existing one. Temperatures are almost 7-8 degrees lower than the AIO Corsair h100i pro liquid XT. In normal operation, I can say it is silent, and in gaming mode, it is quite loud. Quite bulky, in my Corsair Crystal 280X case, I needed 4 spacers (5mm) for the side panel to close without touching the cooler

  • Truly the most worth it air cooler on the market. It keeps my Ryzen 7 9800X3D under 73 degrees at full load

  • Excellent performance at a reasonable price. The results in all tests that have been conducted are not accidental.

  • Very honest cooler for its money, installed on an i5-14600k. Very easy installation but even if you have trouble somewhere, it has instructions for every type of socket. The only thing you need to watch out for is that it touches the RAM, at least for me it did, and I just lifted one of the fans a bit, it's nothing serious. It fits easily in the case overall and the temperatures it gives the processor are very good.

  • Very good and easy to install. I have it on a Ryzen 7 9700X and it cools it very well with usage averaging 60-80%.

  • Perfect, silent and I have the same temperatures as with the AiO I had before.
    5/5 definitely, I recommend it without reservation.
