Review on AMD Wraith SPIRE CPU cooler by Asahi Akio ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not all that bad, but there are minuses.

I took it bundled with ryzen 5 2600. The difference with the oem version was 100, and I decided what would not. I put it not on a ryzen, of course, but on a dual-core A6 9500. It copes well with it. Has pros: normal cooler for a weak processor. if you have an old computer with a processor from amd, and it has a noisy cooler, then you can take this one as a replacement. Some cons: I really didn't like the hat with the inscription AMD on the fan. more precisely, not the cap itself, but the fact that when installing the cooler, this cap sticks out either towards the back wall of the system unit (and then the fan connection wire goes almost tight), or over the memory module closest to the socket, and then the memory does not fit. I can't figure out what prevented AMD from screwing the fan to the heatsink so that this notorious protrusion sticks up. had to do it myself.

Conclusion: the cooler is good but a little noisy, it is best to take it separately and not in a boxed configuration

With its pros. 1.) Appearance; 2.) Price; 3.) 4-pin; 4.) Thermal paste is already on the bottom; Cons: 1.) No copper base; 2.) For installation, you have to unscrew the beams from the socket;
