A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

Someone even recklessly tightened it to the point where the motherboard was bent; several people in the evaluations noted that attaching the cooler is risky owing to the lack of a backplate, and someone even did that. If you have sharp claws instead of hands, then no, this is not the appropriate cooler for you. I started by hand-tightening the bolts all the way to the stop, then I used a screwdriver to give them a further half turn, and now the job is finished! Because the contact is relatively firm and the cooler does not shift position when subjected to physical impact, it may be concluded that this is sufficient. Nothing can make me give in. Again, tighten the bolts with your fingers until they stop turning, then use the screwdriver to give them a half turn while being careful. According to the heat sink, the highest temperature that was reached during the CPU stress test was 63 degrees, and the test lasted for a duration of 25 minutes. I have a ryzen 2200g 65w heat pack. There is a significant increase in speed due to the presence of prots. This is a good outcome in my opinion, but I also need to take into mind that my case is small, and the ventilation mesh sits right close to the cooler; this is probably why it is able to deal with everything so effectively. In circumstances involving people who are deaf, the outcome may be different. In conclusion, I would say that I am extremely content with the cooler, especially considering how affordable it is ($1250), as I was unable to locate any alternatives to it. This is GameMax Voilin, the case model, for anyone who is interested in looking into it.

Pros
  • Aesthetics, cooling efficiency, quiet operation (at least for me), and the inclusion of thermal paste in a syringe, despite the fact that I did not use the paste and instead spread it on in the style of the vintage gd-900.
Cons
  • Mount that is not standard (it is fastened using the plates that come with the kit, and the backplate needs to be removed).
