Review on πŸ”§ Antec A30 CPU Cooler with Blue LED Fan - Intel LGA 775/1150/1151/1155/1156 & AMD Socket FM1/AM3/AM3+/AM2+/AM2 Compatible by Philip Wagner

Looks like a Mini 212 Evo

This CPU cooler is underrated in my opinion. For the price ($15), it performs VERY well. What I really like is the size/look. It's like someone shrunk the 212 Evo. So this is fine in cases where you normally can't install a tower style cooler, and I prefer the tower style due to the directional airflow (although you have to be careful when using it with a cheap mobile device with VRMs that are less have airflow over them). I have an Omen 25L, which is too narrow to fit in most tower coolers, and it beats the stock air cooler by 20Β°C+ (although the stock Omen 25L air cooler doesn't even cover the entire CPU heatsink).

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
