💡 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

★★★★★Works great, good value, dead silent
Very easy to install. Almost always completely silent. RGB transitions smoothly, never have any issues with CPU temperature. Great quality, especially for the price. Was easy to install.

★★★★★Will work for anyone.
Low noise and great temps. Could add a second fan if needed

★★★★★Cool Temps and an even Cooler Price!
This cooler came as a recommendation from a Reddit Thread, I also read the reviews of other users and the price was perfect for the customer build I was doing at the time. I would definitely buy this again. The Assassin 120 ARGB is the big brother to this one and twice the price but both Coolers keep the temps waaaaay down while idle in the 18-25C range. With gaming or streaming I never see temps higher than maybe 50C. I am old school and really don't get the AIO or water cooling craze that's taken over PC cooling the last 10+ years. Air coolers can do just as good if not better. The MSI AIO I installed for a customer didn't even cool as well as this cooler and my Assassin 120 on my personal pc. Less than $20 bucks to cool an i7-12700K, yes Please!!

★★★★★Ditched The Stock Cooler
What I like: - Silent operation. The stock cooler I had whirls so fast during startup, this one? Dead silent. - 10 to 20 degrees celcius cooler than stock - Installation is easy. If you have an AMD board then you can use the mounting bracket that comes with it, because of this I did not need to remove the motherboard from the PC case prior to installing - Included thermal paste. It’s decent enough and gets the job done - Extra fan bracket - The overall value

★★★★Very good performance for price
I put this on my Ryzen 7 8700G processor, and even under the heaviest of loads (multiple video transcoding), the CPU temperature doesn't get above 65C (in a case with good air flow). I was worried about buying a lower priced cooler, but it has met my expectations. At the price, it is well worth replacing the stock AMD fan with this one. My only complaint (and thus only 4/5 stars) is that the included thermal paste wasn't as creamy (smearable) as I expected.
