💡 How to pick a CPU cooler
What to look for:
  • TDP rating must exceed your CPU's TDP
  • Socket compatibility (AM5, LGA1851, etc.)
  • Fits within your case's cooler height limit
💰 Air coolers are reliable and quiet. AIO liquid coolers handle high-TDP CPUs best

★★★★★Quality cou cooler
Paired with the hub and a Nzxt H6 flow case. Awesome design and really simple to install. Absolutely quite and the color settings are nice. Moves a lot of heat. The cam software works great and has some nice customization options. Keeps my Ryzen 9 CPU chilly. Added the rgb fan unit and it's a perfect.

★★★★Good product
Works as intend. No performance issues. Pumps can be a little loud at times as expected with any water cooling

★★★★Good when it works
Cooling a 9800x3d it idles in the high 30s. Stays very cool. You definitely need to have the Nzxt Cam software though or you’ll have no control over pump speed unless you play around in bios. Pump is kind of noisy when running at full speed, sounds like an old school HDD writing files. Update : after a couple a weeks I was downloading a file and the fans went crazy. CPU spiked to 90 degrees. The NzxtCam software couldn’t connect to the AIO. Pump just stopped running. I’m an IT technician by trade so it didn’t bother me initially but after updating Bios (the new 550 boards had an issue with usb enumeration) , that didn’t fix the issue, uninstalling the device in device manager, uninstalling nzxtcam, that didn’t work. Finally the fix was to use RevoUninstaller and remove that crap, delete all registry entries, unplug the pc from the wall, drain the power supply, turn on pc and reinstall everything. Completely unacceptable.
