Review on Corsair A500 CPU Cooler with High Performance Dual Fans by Nick Beck

Corsair knows its customers. Quality construction, easy installation (simplified with pre-applied paste!), comes with a quality long Philips screwdriver required for installation and some extra thermal paste. As you can see from other reviews the only downside is its size - it may not fit all cases - so be careful with the buyer. I hooked this up to a Corsair 4000D with no issues and space on the tempered glass. The cooling fans slide out and are easy to adjust if you need extra space for your RAM modules (see photo). Replacing non-RGB fans (ML120) with Corsair's RGB options. But you don't need it. Otherwise, the A500 is a great replacement for a standard Intel or AMD chip air cooler and for those who want to avoid water-cooled solutions. Easy to install and requires no maintenance except dust, which is easy when the fans slide off. Keeps the i7-10700 idle temperature below 30°C. Under heavy load, it tops out at 68°C, which is a huge improvement over the 80°C I got with the stock Intel cooler.
