Perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

I wanted to take Flex, but I searched for a long time and did not find it in the city, I took the performance and was not disappointed. The cooler itself is cheaper, plus there is no longer a bad fan in the kit (but the flex heatsink is of course more efficient, and the thermal paste is better and in larger quantities there)
PS: guys, how do you smear the paste? :) The paste must be squeezed onto the center of the processor cover in the form of a drop. When installing the radiator, this drop will be crushed and cover the entire percentage with a thin layer :) Do not immediately smear the entire surface of the stone.

Pros

5 heat pipes and a large number of heatsink fins do a pretty good job of dissipating heat from the processor (i7-2600). The sole of the radiator is very smooth, though not mirrored. There is thermal paste in the kit, though its quantity is 1.5 times, i. E. there will not be enough for the second installation (although it may be possible to spend it more economically). I got up with a margin of height in a regular, not wide body. Memory bars (low-profile) do not interfere. The standard car is very quiet up to 1000 rpm, while pumping a small amount of air (but I changed it anyway to a quieter one). Mounts for a second fan are included (no need if you only drive the processor hard). Installation on the motherboard was simple and without swearing :)

Cons

Not identified, it fulfills its price with a vengeance. Problems with starting a regular cooler when connected via an adapter have been noticed - it tries to spin up and cannot. But only when turned on "hot" on a running system with silent coolers installed in the bios profiles. When the computer is turned on with a button, the operating voltage is applied to the cooler and starts without problems at standard speeds and later slows down to those set in bios.
